I'm interested in transferring to Rhodes College, but I can't find much info about their transfer acceptance rate. Does anyone know how competitive it is?
Rhodes College had a transfer acceptance rate of about 26% in 2023.
In terms of improving your chances, maintaining a strong GPA in your current institution, showcasing specific reasons why Rhodes would be a good fit for your academic and career goals, and demonstrating involvement in extracurricular activities can all help make your application compelling. Try to align your application with what Rhodes values in their students: intellectual curiosity, a commitment to service, and strong leadership abilities.
The best source for this information will be the college's admissions department. They often have people who specifically work with potential transfer students and can not only give you the academic information you need but also help you understand the culture and opportunities available at Rhodes College. They can often give you real insight into what the college values in its students and what you can do to improve your application.
