Best and easiest schools to transfer into for IB
Hello, I am transfering soon and was wondering what you would think would be good schools to break into IB but also the ones with the highest chances.
Thanks.

Vanderbilt, USC, Berkeley, UVA, Michigan. That's the 5 you should gun for
Seconded. I go to USC and our transfer acceptance rate is nuts, makes zero sense that it's so high. Lots of cali CC kids but still
Aha thats awsome haha, how is it for IB tho? Semi-target on the west coast or do u have any info bro?
SMC -> USC is easier than trying to get in out of HS lol
Cornell
Cornell and UT Austin both have generous acceptance rates for transfers and pretty good placement
I think your right about Cornell but I did some research about McCombs and from their website it looks very competitive. https://www.mccombs.utexas.edu/BBA/Admissions/Transfer-Students
I go to McCombs - the transfer acceptance is rate is rough just because of the the amount of applicants (basically every other school in Texas)
Depends what state you live in and what your budget is. State flagships are good if you live in Michigan, Virginia, North Carolina, Indiana, Illinois, Texas or California. Otherwise there are a bunch of private target schools but most are very difficult to get into.
Hey, I am an international student so I dont have residency in any state :(
Then Indiana is probably the easiest. Illinois Urbana Champaign and Tulane should be relatively easy as well.
NYU Stern took a bunch of kids this year, acceptance around 30%
Whaaaat thats crazy are you sure? I have read its like a 2% acceptance rate there.
Indiana/Georgetown/UF/SMU
one of those is not like the others...
Wharton takes transfers, you should still consider applying even if it's a limited number of spots.
yeah I really wanted to apply but looks like they only take freshmans so you transfer into sophomore year.
