What are my chances if I maintain my current GPA? I think i am top 25%-30%, but school does not publish rank.

That's roughly top 20%, no? You'd probably need to bump your GPA a bit higher to have a good shot at SLS, though you probably have a chance as is. I'd guess you'd be competitive for Berkeley as you are now, given the novelty of transferring to a lower-ranked school, even though Berkeley and CCN are almost peer institutions.

I would guess that with a GPA in the top 5%, you'd be relatively safe. Top 10% is a little less secure, but still good. Two guys transferred from CLS>>SLS two years ago. I believe one was Kent and one was Stone (I'm guessing high Stone).
