Transfer applicants must write powerful essays to get into the colleges of their choice.

Getting deferred from a college is painful yet full of promise. It is good because the college is still interested in you and has put you into the regular applicant pool. It is good because the college can now see your fall grades and learn more about you. It is bad because the odds of deferred admissions are lower than applying regular, and waiting another four months for a potentially negative answer is agony.
