Fall 2018 Transfer Decisions Are Now Live by Chris Peterson SM '13
may the 4th be with you
Earlier today, we completed and released our decisions for transfer applicants who applied for entry during Fall 2018.
You may access your decision at apply.mitadmissions.org—the same site where you submitted your application. You will log in using the same email and password used to create your application account.
Our transfer admissions process was quite competitive: 538 students applied to transfer, and we have admitted 23. And as usual, we are very excited about the students we have admitted, and often chagrined about those we could not.
As a former transfer student myself (not to MIT), I know that this process can be a difficult experience. For those of you who were admitted: welcome to MIT. For those who weren’t: keep on trucking. I transferred, but if I hadn’t, things would have been fine. Remember, college is mostly what you make of it, here or anywhere else. Either way, I wish you the best of luck wherever you go, and whatever you do.
