Motivational stories about transfering
Hey everyone. I was wondering if anyone had any motivational stories about transfering they wouldn’t mind sharing. In particular stories about getting dinged at some schools and then getting accepted to other schools. I received a couple dings yesterday and seeking out some hope for some of my other applications. Thanks and look forward to reading anything

Hi! Fellow transfer applicant here. Don't lose hope! I got waitlisted at Georgetown yesterday and dinged from USC but I got an acceptance at Northwestern on the same day. Sometimes, doors close so a better one can open.

Here's one from TLSer hdshap in the Georgetown transfer thread this cycle!

Yey.Looks like the person who picked up the call never even bothered to check your admission status and just gave you a generic "wait for the mail" response.hdshap wrote:I called back with my name and they said I would receive a decision in the next week or two (with a very dull voice on the other end). While not completely giving up hope, I think that means I was rejected if they let other students know.
