[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'll keep this short. DD is a sophomore at an Ivy. Was assaulted and stalked her freshman year for five brutal and traumatizing months. Is miserable at the current school she's at and wants to leave. Has a 3.7 as a gender studies major. Where can she transfer to? Ideally, she wants to go to another Ivy (except Cornell or Penn because she hates those schools), but I feel like her GPA might prevent her from transferring to another Ivy. Other schools on her list are Wesleyan, Vassar, Barnard, Northwestern, and Stanford (I know, long shot). I've never been through this... Help! [/quote]

This is so sad to read.

I had this experience as a young woman at an Ivy 20 years ago. I applied out as a transfer student before I told campus security about this guy. I had to explain the situation to them twice, but they got him away from me. Counseling was no help at all.

I found out recently that he spent a year in jail for trespassing on the campus after I told security.

I stayed and graduated. I'm very glad that I did. It was a difficult decision but one I am very proud of. The next three years were much better and I am very proud of my degree.[/quote]
