I'm applying for transfer to Harvard, Yale, Stanford and Brown. Current freshman at Dartmouth. Dartmouth doesn't have a Statistics department and the rural environment here is not conducive to tech/startups. I'm looking to change my major from Math/CS to Statistics/CS, and also want a more urban environment.
My college GPA is 3.83/4.00. I have a 4.00 in my major (math/cs). I have a 4.00 this term, reflected on my Mid Term Report, with strong praise from all my current professors. I have two strong college professor recs and know both individuals very well. I am a John J. Byrne Scholar of Mathematics here at Dartmouth (top 8 math students in the class).
In high school, I had a 3.92/4.00 and a 36 ACT.
I've worked for two Stanford startups. One is currently worth $500M+ and one was acquired by Google for $500M in 2014. I am heading to Apple this summer as the third youngest employee in company history (They hired two 14-year olds in the 80s). I run Dartmouth's hackathon, am a member of the chess team and cook for homeless/elderly in New Hampshire as part of a volunteer initiative.
Would appreciate any opinions on my chances as well as anything I should look out for when applying. There are about two weeks left!
