Career Resources
Based on the most helpful WSO content, transferring to schools like Emory, Northwestern, Notre Dame, Boston College, or WashU can be competitive, but a high GPA will certainly strengthen your application. Here are some insights:
Emory: Transferring into Goizueta Business School can be challenging, especially for non-business majors. Transfer students often face disadvantages, and the process is competitive. However, Goizueta has solid regional placement in banking, particularly in cities like Atlanta.
Northwestern: Northwestern is highly competitive for transfers, and you'll need strong extracurriculars and a compelling personal statement alongside your high GPA.
Notre Dame: While specific details about Notre Dame aren't highlighted, it is generally considered competitive for transfers. A high GPA and a clear narrative about why you want to transfer will be crucial.
Boston College: Boston College is a strong semi-target for finance and has a good reputation. A high GPA will help, but you'll also need to demonstrate fit and interest in their programs.
WashU (Olin): WashU is a solid option, especially for business-related fields. It is competitive but not as difficult as some of the other schools mentioned. A high GPA and a strong application can make you a viable candidate.
In general, transferring to these schools requires more than just a high GPA. Strong extracurriculars, a well-crafted personal statement, and clear reasons for transferring will be key. Additionally, keep in mind that transfer acceptance rates for these schools can be low, so it's important to have backup options.

seems doable
Thank you for your feedback! By chance, do you know of anyone who successfully transferred from a non-target to a target school? If so, can you tell me where they went initially and where they ended up transferring to?
