  • "It doesn’t matter where you come from. Work hard and make something of yourself," says Guillermo Camarillo, who was born and raised in a low-income, immigrant community in Chicago where few people attend college. Despite the challenges he faced, he was accepted to Stanford and was able to make a successful transition to college thanks to a number of supportive communities and mentors on campus. He just earned his bachelor's degree in management science and engineering, and has returned home to Chicago where he will soon begin a job with an industrial supply company.

  • For students applying for admission to Stanford’s Class of 2025, which will enter the university in Fall 2021, Stanford will review applications with or without standardized test scores, leaving the decision in the hands of the applicant. There will be no penalty for choosing not to submit scores. We recognize the many challenges created by the coronavirus pandemic, and we understand the difficulty students may have in preparing for and accessing admission testing worldwide. It may be particularly challenging for students to find alternatives to testing sites that have been oversubscribed, or where availability of testing is pushed further into the school year. We are committed to a holistic review of all candidates, taking into account the vast array of information provided in and with each student’s application. We expect to reinstate the SAT or ACT testing requirement for the Class of 2026, entering in Fall 2022. Click the link in our bio for more information.

  • Stanford has established preliminary plans for the 2020-21 academic year, informed by medical and public health professionals with the goal of creating safe in-person learning opportunities on campus. Here are the highlights: ⁣ • Stanford undergraduate students will start the fall quarter one week early, on September 14, and end classes by November 20. Final exams will be held remotely after Thanksgiving. ⁣ • We plan to move to a four-quarter year for undergrads, including summer of 2021, with half the students on campus per quarter, changing each quarter. • Assuming that public health conditions allow, we intend to have undergraduate first-year and transfer students among those on campus for the fall quarter, to allow them to get to know our campus, form community and begin their Stanford careers in the most positive way. ⁣⁣ • While in-person classes will be offered, we are viewing online teaching as the default. We will redesign courses over the summer to make this as enriching and engaging as possible, and we’re looking for ways to improve classroom and peer-to-peer interactions.⁣ ⁣ • For those applying to Stanford in 2020-21, please continue to check admission.stanford.edu for updates, including for answers to questions about standardized testing and AP exams. ⁣ Thank you, to our incoming students, for the incredible flexibility, perseverance and care for others that you have shown. We look forward to welcoming you on The Farm just as soon as possible. ⁣ ⁣ More at the link in our bio.⁣

  • Hi everyone! My name is Courtney Smith. I transferred to Stanford in the fall of 2017 because I felt it offered the best culture for me: a combination of innovation, interdisciplinary collaboration, and encouragement to dream big. Stanford has so many incredible people and resources that it's easy to get overwhelmed, so I'd recommend taking a light course load in your first quarter. Leave a whole class worth's of space to really invest in building friendships, meeting professors and exploring all the opportunities Stanford has to offer beyond the classroom. Every Stanford student that I met was amazing in some way, but the transfer community especially was so inspiring and grounding to me because of all the unique stories and circuitous paths everyone had. The first few months after transferring were hard because deep relationships are really important to me and while everyone was nice, close friendships take time to form. However, it wasn't long before Stanford really started feeling like a home to me and I know it won't be long before Stanford starts feeling like a home to the incoming transfers and freshman as well! #Stanford2024
