There are so many inspiring stories of Cc students transferring to IL. It makes me angry that people say there is a slim to zero chance of it happening. Have they not looked around! It’s not impossible!
But that is the reality my best friend 4.2 GPA 33 on ACT and a 1475 on the SAT one of the top ten students in his graduating class applied to Harvard, Yale, and MIT out of HS and all of them rejected him. I come to figure out that they accept you based on what kind of degree you want there and what your race is from the diversity quote and other variables and they look at you academic resume and they say hmm you are good at academics BUT WHAT ELSE CAN YOU PROVIDE TO THIS UNIVERSITY?!?! So the reality is you can be the best of the best and still fail they only care about filling in their quotas
@@AG-ck4wn that isn’t true. It’s just that every student who applies there probably has all those things, it isn’t just about stats, that’s where you are wrong. I know a white girl who got in with a 4.1 to Stanford and Harvard because her essays and Ecs were outstanding, and it says so on her admissions folder. You can’t say it’s all about a diversity quota because that lessens how much work the students who go get in put in.
@@amaltaher2717 I just have a question of you try to transfer from cc to any Ivy League do they still request a SAT score or only based on your grade in community college?
Holy crap this is exactly what I was looking for, thank you so much Ariana! I am graduating from a local community college here and couldn't find any information about transferring to an Ivy league after getting your associates.
My mom transferred from a City College to Stanford back in late 90s ... She had the stats and ECs and test scores.... She had to put off attending any Tier 1 because she didn't get enough funding to attend so early in 11th grade she decided go straight to City College
My teacher who started college at 34 went to 2 years of community, for fun he applied for a transfer to Stanford and cal state unv and he had a 3.9 gpa. He actually ended up getting accepted in to Stanford and cal state. Also, he was really bad at sat that he got like a 970. He ended up going to cal state because of his major
Was it Cal Poly where he transferred to? This must have been ages ago since you said he got accepted on a 970 SAT. I had a tutor who also got accepted to MIT but she actually ended up staying close to home and went to Michigan State for her bachelor's and masters instead because she got a full ride. Kinda like my situation I was in. I wanted to go to Ohio State more than anywhere else and was accepted but I couldn't afford the out of state tuition so I went to Arizona State instead which was at least $15,000 cheaper. I still had a blast at ASU and will always remember the fun times I had there.
Inspiring. I'm doing prereqs at the moment to get into college. I'm 29 will be 29.9 by the time I start college lol. Hopefully I can get good grades like that. Go from jackass to smart ass. 😆 When i was a kid my mentality was school is corny. But at 29. The idea of being educated and being like a scientist, engineer, or getting into artificial intelligence is appealing. Hard to pick really.
@@jessemoe727 i started learning that to man. when your young, everyone around you says education is important/ first. when your a pre teen your really don’t agree with that completely. but one your in the teens your will start to overthink that what if i don’t even get into a college. i’m pretty sure that all it takes is maturity to grasp things
dudeeeee i took one concurrent enrollment class junior year, and one senior year. so i had a solid like.. 8 credits? I took a few APs and stanford doesn't accept any of those from transfers fun facts! straightfoward!
Funny how I was looking at different stories from different students who transferred from community college to top schools because these videos inspire me. However, I’m a bit nervous because I’m not sure if the pandemic will affect my chances of admission because I know that some colleges don’t accept online credit and some of my classes have been moved to online for the fall. But then again, the classes are remotely. So are they REALLY considered online classes? Anyways, good video!
Hi! I'd say don't cause unnecessary stress on yourself! The pandemic is out of your control so just focus on putting your best foot forward in you applications! I'm not sure about the online/remote classes. Just like Ariana said, I'd call or email the admissions offices to double check and verify that any answer you get is correct.
@@xxjulian7392zz hiii congrats 🎉😭 i have a question🙏🏻 is it necessary to have a specific high Gpa? And is it too late if i want to transfer ? İ mean i don't know what date or what are the requirements
Heyy!! Thank you sm for this vid. I just want to was i actually got accepted into cornell and university of Michigan Ann Arbor. I ended up going to umich bc they offered me a scholarship. Anything is possible y’all don’t give up🙏🏼
I’m so glad I found this video. I am thinking about transferring to an Ivy League from my four year university. I am debating about taking the SAT over but would you recommend taking it over since I am already enrolled in college? This fall I will be a sophomore btw.
I'd recommend retaking it if your score falls below the average for your intended school's average admitted student score. However, I'd also recommend not being too stressed about this/prioritizing this over everything else, as test scores are only a small part of your application.
@@irisfu6929 what if you have a really bad SAT score but have 4.0 in community college? Do you think you should retake it? Or should I focus on extra activities and Internships?
I’m currently trying to transfer to Stanford in the fall of 2021. I have a solid 4.0 but fear that I don’t have enough other than a 4.0 to offer. It’s my dream school
Trust me your wasting your time not because your gpa isn’t great it obviously is but Stanford literally doesn’t take transfers unless they’ve done someone special like being a military hero or a artists who’s charted. Apply to other great schools who have worthwhile acceptance rates like Columbia, UCLA, UPENN, Berkeley, Vanderbilt
@@MESSI-fx1ob Those schools are almost just as hard to get accepted to!! But Berkeley and UCLA are much more community college transfer friendly which is a plus. But yeah, I left community college with an AA degree and a 3.2 GPA but it would have been a waste of $90 in my case too to apply to Stanford since I knew then that they don't accept B students with no extracurricular activities to show for. They probably would have started typing my rejection letter 5 minutes after looking at my application!! I transferred to Arizona State, just graduated a month ago with an BA in Sociology and a minor in Psychology with high honors.
@@MrDodger3222 UPENN and Columbia do take transfers just not from CC. I transferred to UCLA. But if I knew all my other options of cc friendly schools I would have applied to many more schools Vanderbilt being one in addition to Cornell which also doesn’t mind a CC transfer. I’m very happy with UCLA just think most people don’t realize that it’s not only UCLA and Berkeley who take CC transfers many other elite schools do as well. But u r right in the case of UPenn and Columbia they basically don’t take CC transfers but at least they take transfers, Stanford literally take like max 20 kids a year and from those kids almost all get in because of something unrelated to their gpa or test scores.
@@MESSI-fx1ob I know. But it's still extremely hard to transfer to these top private schools from CC. When I was at CC, my counselor told me that I needed at least a 3.7 GPA to transfer to Cal or UCLA. The typical community college student isn't going to be accepted by Stanford or even UCLA. The best universities I probably would have gotten into if I applied are schools such as UW-Madison and Penn State. I was accepted to Ohio State.
Hi Iris! Absolutely love how you try to help everyone with such useful videos! I am an International student and I was hoping if I would do a research paper by myself and get it verfied by someone who is involved with that topic, will colleges give it any importance?
Yes, that shows great initiative and intellectual curiosity on your part. Even better if u can write a compelling essay about your experience with the research pape
Have you watched the "landing research position as a high schooler" video, or the "3 internships in a month" video? I talk a bit about how to cold email/cold call in both, but lmk if you have more questions.
This is so inspiring, Stanford is like my dream school but since I live in NY, I love the racial diversity in NY and the environment itself. Columbia University is like my reach school since it is in NY and my mom really wants me to go to Columbia since it is in NY. But who knows, maybe after 2 years in community college, if I get accepted to Stanford I'm going to say sorry to my mom. HOWEVER, I'm still a high school junior transitioning to become a senior. I feel like it is too late to do any extracurricular or internships if they are available, do you think it's late? I want to be in the business field, I want to do MIS as my bachelor's degree, but I have no idea how to express myself in my essay since COVID literally put as into lockdown. Also, I'm a person that is trying to get out of her comfort zone and trying to socialize with people, I'm doing it and my close ones are happy seeing me go outside instead of staying inside in my home 24/7
Same here, my dream school is Columbia University. I just got into college and I plan to transfer after my freshman year. I also plan to take the SAT exam this year.
@@syd4957 how did you do? Also I have a question, is possible to change career when you're accepted as a transfer student? For example, attend to community college as a freshman in Software engineer, next year accepted as a transfer student in Electrical Engineer.
Im the same rn but im an international student i wanna apply to ivy leagues schools but its too late ig i havent taken the sat yet or the ietls and the exrracurriculars its too late for them my gpa is low as well so defintley i wont be accepted and after my highschool im thinking of going to a community college as an international student then work hard and transfer to an ivy league school but im afraid this plan won't work
Hey, Iris! How are u? Loved your content! I have a doubt... As an international latin american applicant, interested in studying with financial aid/scholarship in the US, how does my Restrictive Early Decision application (that I would like to use at Stanford, my dream university) affects my chances to be admitted in other colleges? And using it at Stanford (or at any other univ) gives me any advantage other than knowing my result before?
applying REA to Stanford will not impact your chances at other schools at all! Other schools will not know whether you applied REA to anywhere else, including Stanford, so it should have no impact. Looks like you didn't quite finish your questions/sentence in your original comment. Feel free to comment again with the full questions! good luck :)
@@irisfu6929 Thanks for answering :) Ok... So, as an international student, according to what I searched, in Stanford and all the need-aware universities, if we apply for financial aid eligibility, our chances are lowered, because there is an extremely small, limited, number of scholarships. Due to this fact, I am very confused about how many of those are given to Latin Americans and if using REA will change anything in my admission chances. I mean, I am scared that I use it at Stanford, get rejected and, then, have less chances in other colleges because, in them, I would be applying using regular decision. Also, I don't have a spectrum big enough to establish if I would be a competitive profile for international scholarship at Stanford, so this questions and worries are making me quite insecure. I am watching your videos (and they are helping me a lot), but I still remain with some doubts...
Just a quick question, but did you do the Julie Kim Consulting College Program? I'm not sure if college consulting programs they provide additional momentum for better college apps.
Interesting…. When people ask about college consulting you have used, then it’s just silence that follows afterwards, no comments, no responses from you…. Is it a secret what services you have used ?
Hi iris! Ur videos are rly awesome!! Can I ask how do u spike ur essays, and many schools ask why do u choose school XYZ out of the tons out there... do u answer with a personal anecdote, research abt the schools niche programmes or is there any other approach to doing it ... cos delving into the niche programmes can sometimes be a bit too technical so im afraid if they might become disinterested after some time since it’s regurgitation of info that they would be Super familiar with.. thank you!!
Hi Iris, i am currently in second year of community college but i want to transfer to an ivy league. i have good gpa, i'm involved in my current college but i didn't took SATs in my high school mostly bc i just had moved to US and i didn't know much about schooling here. would you recommend taking SATs now? do you have some tips for me? thanks. i am open to suggestions :)
You can retake SAT as an adult but if you’re a transfer they don’t really care, 3 year old comment but if anyone is reading this, I hope my comment helps.
Do you recommend your cc to be local to where you want to transfer? Assuming they have relations, networking, etc vs across the country where your cc is unknown?
Hey! I am from India. In my country, there is nothing like APs. Now I am in 12th Grade next year I will be joining my college. I am an average student in my class. But I really want to stand out from the crowd and want to study in the top ivy leagues. Please give me some advice that I can follow so that my chances will increase for admission. I am planning to apply in the year 2023. I have 2 years. Please guide me. It will be beneficial if you guys can provide me some kind of plan or something that will be great.
I just graduated from Korean high school and have never lived abroad. By the way, can I go to the cc now and follow the class? I want to go to a four-year university after that, but I'm really not confident now. Could you tell me your advice??
UA-cam has been kind of weird lately, like it deletes random comments! I'm sure it's not Iris's fault. I am a UA-camr myself and while I see the comments in my notifications, for some reason they don't appear in the actual video comment section... :(
@@arianadavarpanah3771 That's so great to hear! Would you happen to know if they transfer in as a sophmore or junior? I'd just like to know how it could work out! Thank you for your reply!!
@@kennyjimenez6742 I'm not totally sure, honestly! 4yr-4yr can be either sophomore or junior (community college is usually junior) but everyone spends at least 2 years, if not more, regardless of when they transfer in. It usually depends on what you've got under your belt already. Will try to make a vid about this!
I just have a question of you try to transfer from cc to any Ivy League do they still request a SAT score or only based on your grade in community college?
Hi iris I need to ask you some questions regarding the transfer how can I reach you out??apart from the UA-cam comment section?? Please I need your help
Hi Iris, I hope you see this but is there a way I can contact you? I am currently writing my own children’s book in collaboration with an international non profit and would love to hear your insight (the book is basically teaching kids that people are complex i.e that rich girl who gets everything sees her parents every 2 years or the homeless man was a veteran who fought in war). I understand you published you own book in high school too and if you could give me any advice that would be amazing.
Hey, iris I'm an international student I wanted to know that.AP exams are important for application.....means if I will not give any AP exams then the chances of getting in will reduce for me plzz reply
They are if you have the means to access AP exams. If your school doesn't offer APs and you don't take any exams, then it won't be a big deal at all. Everything is taken in the context of your environment!
the school has to be accredited -- so usually I've seen this done from one U.S. school to another, but its a good question, I'll try to figure that out for you!
I was a C+ student in high school but plan to do amazing in Community College (4.5 GPA, good resume, community hours etc.). Do I have a chance to get into a school like Columbia?
Depends, when you transfer most of them ask for HS transcript but it doesn’t hold much weight other than to see how much you improved :) however if you transfer after one year both high school and community college GPA will be considered.
I was so close to qualifying I held a 3.8 GPA for a while then three family members died of Covid and it dropped I mean it’s whatever I probably wouldn’t of gotten him a 3.8 anyway so I just apply do you have a and I’ll just transfer there instead
@@groceryshopper97 3.9 GPA did all recommended and required course work, I had a website along with over 20 completed and analyzed datasets with a few machine learning models, had a few software engineering projects along with building a robot with arduino, I was honors college, phi theta and started a comp sci club
Shuaib Ahmed you had all that and got denied? that’s shocking to me, texas a&m has a 68% acceptance rate, so i would think that you would surely get in...
Timestamps and Ariana's contact info are in the description!
Hi Iris, what college advising service would you recommend for a transfer?
I actually know two students who transferred from my community college to Stanford
Nice that's awesome!
Did they took sat or act for transfer Stanford?
우또기 this is my question. Cause I didn’t take my sat/act 😔 just CC
@Buck Dewey thx bro
@@우또기 I believe the first student had a 30 ACT score, but the student who transferred last year never took any standardized test.

Just a quick question, but did you do the Julie Kim Consulting College Program? I'm not sure if college consulting programs they provide additional momentum for better college apps.
I did not, I did use another college advising service though
Iris Fu what was it
@@irisfu6929 would u mind telling us what it was ?
Interesting….
When people ask about college consulting you have used, then it’s just silence that follows afterwards, no comments, no responses from you….
Is it a secret what services you have used ?
Hi iris! Ur videos are rly awesome!! Can I ask how do u spike ur essays, and many schools ask why do u choose school XYZ out of the tons out there... do u answer with a personal anecdote, research abt the schools niche programmes or is there any other approach to doing it ... cos delving into the niche programmes can sometimes be a bit too technical so im afraid if they might become disinterested after some time since it’s regurgitation of info that they would be Super familiar with.. thank you!!
Many (most) schools ask “why school?”, and I usually answer with a personal anecdote and connect it to the school’s programs.
Iris Fu thank you for your reply!! keep posting great content!
When a international transfer applicant should start applying for us universities
Hi Iris! Since you are going to major in computer science, I have a question for you. Is web development computer science?
Yes it is!
I have a question: what font and font size did you use in your book?
I used 8x10 inches
Iris Fu omg I did the same thing lol but I mean like what size did you make the text inside the book?
do you think stanford reads all 40,000 applicants ?
@@chidxrra so all the essay people spent time writing would just go away like that without even being read?
I believe they read everything (listen to Inside the Yale Admissions Office podcast for more on this. at least at Yale, every application is read).
@@irisfu6929 yes a ray of hope for me!
if you don t mind could you link it to me?
Hi Iris, i am currently in second year of community college but i want to transfer to an ivy league. i have good gpa, i'm involved in my current college but i didn't took SATs in my high school mostly bc i just had moved to US and i didn't know much about schooling here. would you recommend taking SATs now? do you have some tips for me? thanks. i am open to suggestions :)
Heyy i wanna ask u some questions as an international student applying to a community college can i get ur instagram?
You can retake SAT as an adult but if you’re a transfer they don’t really care, 3 year old comment but if anyone is reading this, I hope my comment helps.
Do you recommend your cc to be local to where you want to transfer? Assuming they have relations, networking, etc vs across the country where your cc is unknown?
Love this Iris. Also thank you for sharing your experience. I also create content on college advice and share my college experience on my channel 😄🙌
Nice channel!!! Great to meet you here :)
Iris Fu I look forward to seeing more of your content Iris :). Have a great day and keep it up 😄👌
You too!
Are community college good for International National students ???
Hey! I am from India. In my country, there is nothing like APs. Now I am in 12th Grade next year I will be joining my college. I am an average student in my class. But I really want to stand out from the crowd and want to study in the top ivy leagues. Please give me some advice that I can follow so that my chances will increase for admission. I am planning to apply in the year 2023. I have 2 years. Please guide me. It will be beneficial if you guys can provide me some kind of plan or something that will be great.
Do cc transfer students to standford have to take the act/sat?
I just graduated from Korean high school and have never lived abroad. By the way, can I go to the cc now and follow the class? I want to go to a four-year university after that, but I'm really not confident now. Could you tell me your advice??
my friend i think you can do it and make a real swing of it. good luck
Where's my comment, why it disappeared??
lol I am not sure... maybe you can comment again?
@@irisfu6929 it again disappeared
UA-cam has been kind of weird lately, like it deletes random comments! I'm sure it's not Iris's fault. I am a UA-camr myself and while I see the comments in my notifications, for some reason they don't appear in the actual video comment section... :(
@@sunlitstudying736 thanks for saying that i gone mad..
Is it possible to transfer from Usc to Stanford? I don’t feel like I belong at Usc anymore and Stanford sounds ideal
@@arianadavarpanah3771 That's so great to hear! Would you happen to know if they transfer in as a sophmore or junior? I'd just like to know how it could work out! Thank you for your reply!!
@@kennyjimenez6742 I'm not totally sure, honestly! 4yr-4yr can be either sophomore or junior (community college is usually junior) but everyone spends at least 2 years, if not more, regardless of when they transfer in. It usually depends on what you've got under your belt already. Will try to make a vid about this!
which did Community College did she go to?
I just have a question of you try to transfer from cc to any Ivy League do they still request a SAT score or only based on your grade in community college?
They require both. It’s just like applying to college in high school.
Do you think community college was the key? My son would be looking to transfer from a T10 school so I’m worried that tanks him.
Wait did I miss it or what was her gpa ?
Hi iris I need to ask you some questions regarding the transfer how can I reach you out??apart from the UA-cam comment section?? Please I need your help
Hey Iris! Your video is inspiring! I would like to contact you regarding transfer applications. How can I do so?
Hi Iris, I hope you see this but is there a way I can contact you? I am currently writing my own children’s book in collaboration with an international non profit and would love to hear your insight (the book is basically teaching kids that people are complex i.e that rich girl who gets everything sees her parents every 2 years or the homeless man was a veteran who fought in war). I understand you published you own book in high school too and if you could give me any advice that would be amazing.
Hi Richard! You can book a call with me here: app.joinbullseye.com/mentors/1809 -- looking forward to helping you in your book process!
@@irisfu6929 Done
so is she going to Stanford for only 2 years or 4 years?
How many credits do Stanford require to transfer?
Hey, iris I'm an international student I wanted to know that.AP exams are important for application.....means if I will not give any AP exams then the chances of getting in will reduce for me plzz reply
They are if you have the means to access AP exams. If your school doesn't offer APs and you don't take any exams, then it won't be a big deal at all. Everything is taken in the context of your environment!
@@irisfu6929 okay Iris thanks for your reply😄
Did you take your SATs?
this can be carried on from another university? if in mexico and i’m in an university at this moments, can I do this process?
the school has to be accredited -- so usually I've seen this done from one U.S. school to another, but its a good question, I'll try to figure that out for you!
@@transfertea omg thank you!
I was a C+ student in high school but plan to do amazing in Community College (4.5 GPA, good resume, community hours etc.). Do I have a chance to get into a school like Columbia?
Max is 4.0. Ruh
Columbia does take a lot of transfers, but they prefer them to be from other Ivy leagues or 4 year institutions, aim for cornell.
Also in college weighted GPA doesn’t exist so 4.0 is the max 😂
Hi I wanna ask that if I have a low GPA in high school but have good GPA in college do My high school Gpa will affect my application
Depends, when you transfer most of them ask for HS transcript but it doesn’t hold much weight other than to see how much you improved :) however if you transfer after one year both high school and community college GPA will be considered.
I was so close to qualifying I held a 3.8 GPA for a while then three family members died of Covid and it dropped I mean it’s whatever I probably wouldn’t of gotten him a 3.8 anyway so I just apply do you have a and I’ll just transfer there instead
😊😊
Please can I transfer from mba to community college degree 2 years as international student ???
Do you also listen to yourself?

oo
Xièxiè ⭐

rejected from every school rip gg. Comp sci major
What was your GPA. I’m a computer science major at cc
@@groceryshopper97 3.9 GPA did all recommended and required course work, I had a website along with over 20 completed and analyzed datasets with a few machine learning models, had a few software engineering projects along with building a robot with arduino, I was honors college, phi theta and started a comp sci club
Shuaib Ahmed what schools did you apply to?
@@groceryshopper97 Univ Texas, Texas A&M, University Illnois, Georgia Tech
Shuaib Ahmed you had all that and got denied? that’s shocking to me, texas a&m has a 68% acceptance rate, so i would think that you would surely get in...
:O
