“
I chose to transfer to Lake Forest because I felt like I was already at home before I was even admitted. The transfer admissions staff was very hands-on, and no matter who I talked to, I was treated like family. The transfer team helped me with each step of the process, and it was clear that every person on campus truly wants to help you succeed and feel comfortable as a transfer student.
