CCN to Harvard/Yale

Around top 20% at CCN, international student, looking to transfer to Harvard or Yale.
Wanna start off working in US biglaw, but H/Y would be a BIG boost for in-house or academia opportunities in my home country.

I don't know how my status as an international student would affect my transfer application,
but are these stats typically good enough for a H/Y transfer? Or would I need a top 10% to pull it off?
Thanks!!

I think you should be able to get H with a good reason to transfer. Write your PS about wanting to pursue opportunities in your home country, and how a degree from H/Y would make that more attainable; I think that would go a long way. I think you'd have to get a bit higher in rank to get to Y but who knows because transferring there is a black box. Good luck.

very unlikely to get H unless you are closer to top 10%

almost certainly out at Y unless you end up within top 10%
