Advice to a Transfer Student
I'm a rising junior transfer from a non-target State School where I studied Chemistry and Economics (3.85 and 4.0 major GPAs, respectively). I transferred to an Ivy target for a wide variety of reasons, and I would like to do my best to land a SA position for next summer. I have no prior finance experience, and this summer I'm interning as a Sales Strategic Planning analyst at a mid-level Pharma company.
I'm really worried that I won't be able to land a SA position, and wanted some advice as to how to proceed from here. I know recruiting is in the winter, and I'll do my best to get as close to a 4.0 as possible first semester at the new school. Any other suggestions? Thanks for all the help!
you'll be fine, trust me. recruiting can be really tough and random at targets. this alone will hold you back, not the fact that you transferred. (i was a transfer to a top ivy too).
your set. regards.
Don't worry. Try and land some experience if you don't already have it, keep the grades up and you'll be fine
I too was a transfer to an ivy. You will be fine, assuming you keep your gpa up. GPA and the name will carry you. Although it sounds pretentious, its the truth.
