Boston University welcomes hundreds of transfer students to campus each year. We want to learn more about you and your reasons for transferring, in particular what you hope to accomplish at Boston University. (600 word maximum) • • I am Applying to Boston University to the school of communications A list of things I have done in the past that should be in my essay are listed below. - Summer of 2019 I completed an internship at Red Bull with the marketing team. - My very first internship was with an advertising agency called the Corner and it was based in London. Internships… RedBull -> advertising -> How these internships taught you you like working with people. - I went to Lynn to study communications. - Something was missing that I wanted at Lynn that is available at Boston University, the school does not offer SOMETHING. – The in-depth study of how to influence a target audience by getting inside their heads, extracting information about their values, likes, needs and wants. This is the level of in depth study that I wish to go into more. - You want to step outside your comfort zone, - Once you took a look at BU, you saw that they had team clubs such as a debate team and school event organizations. This interests me because the clubs revolve around working creatively with a team of people, as well as having already been on the debate team and the events team at Lynn. - How BU would be an appropriate environment for my study’s - What you hope to achieve. ( e.g By attending Boston University, I hope to expand my knowledge in communications, participate in more summer field work, volunteer with local businesses in my field of studies, and eventually, go on to graduate school in Marketing). - End the essay going full circle by talking about how I can accomplish these things at Boston University. Below are a few list of steps that outlines how an essay has to be. ———-———-———-———-———-———-———-———-———-———-———-———-———-——————-———-———IMPORTANT - Give SPECIFIC reasons why you want to transfer and keep the essay focused on that. • Have a clear academic reason for your transfer. Personal reasons are fine, but academics need to come first. • Stay positive. Don't speak badly of your current school. Emphasize what you like about your target school, not what you dislike about your current school. • Be meticulous. Grammar, punctuation, and style matter. Show that you put time and care into your writing. HOW TO WRITE A GREAT TRANSFER ESSAY Step One: Establish why you want to transfer. Tell admissions why you want to transfer, and do so without speaking negatively about your current institution. Are you looking for a bigger school? Do you want to attend a university in a tech-centric city? Did you just discover your passion for a major that your current institution doesn’t offer? Transferring is a big decision, so it’s important to show that your intentions are clear. Whatever the reason, refrain from speaking ill of your current school. You want to come off as optimistic and forward thinking to admissions. Step Two: Demonstrate your interest. Why are you applying to this school in particular? You’ve been through the admissions cycle before and you are wiser than you were a year or two ago. Admissions officers will expect that you’ve done your research and are making a calculated, thoughtful decision to transfer. Your interest in transferring to one school should be directly related to your reason for leaving your current school: What gaps or unmet needs will your prospective institution address? Do you want to transfer for the school’s humongous alumni network, award-winning journalism program, or non-profit affiliations? Have you always dreamed of living in the city in which the school is located? Make sure admissions knows that you aren’t applying because “it’s gotta be better than my current school” but because this school is where you feel you truly belong. Illustrate your drive and maybe you’ll be hitting the ground running come the fall. (Hint: the best way to get the information you need is by setting aside a chunk of time to pore over the school website. Sorry, there’s no shortcut, even the second time around.) Step Three: Establish the highlights of your collegiate career so far. You have an edge that most freshman don’t: You’ve already been to college, so you know a bit more about the experience as well as your own academic and career goals. Being able to say that you know you will succeed at your school of choice because you flourish in small classrooms, lead in group projects, excel in the math and sciences or whatever your reasoning may be is crucial. Talk about what you have enjoyed about college thus far (again, be positive!) and how you hope to build on your experience at your (hopefully) new school!

TRANSFER APPLICATION ESSAY

During the first summer after my first year of college, I joined Corner as an internship.
This is an advertising agency based in London. This was my first time to experience the real
pressure of delivering practical deadlines and practicing what I had learned that material year.
The experience at Corner, in the beginning, was not that pleasing considering that my supervisor
was very strict and expected me to catch up quickly. Each day at the program was very tiresome
and at some time I was almost overwhelmed by the pressure to deliver as per the agency’s
standards. Much of the assignments that I was assigned were too technical for an intern but after
two weeks I settled down and I aligned myself with the rest of the crew. I can proudly say that
my experience at Corner was awesome and very educating.
During my internship program, I met several people who were very interesting and from
whom I learned very many things from them. It was at this time when I had my first encounter
with Boston University students who made me become fascinated with my current efforts to
create a career path of my life at Boston University. After my internsh...
