College Admits 34 As Transfers For Fall Term

By Paul M. Barrett

Harvard will admit 34 transfer students from other colleges this fall, half of them women, a spokesman for the admissions office said yesterday.

The College will also allow 10 men and 27 women to enroll for one or two semesters under its visiting undergraduate program. No figures are available on how many admittees will actually register in September.

The statistics vary little from those of the past two years. Forty-one transfer students were admitted in 1979, 26 in 1980.

Both transfer students and participants in the visiting undergraduate program will be required to live in off-campus housing.

The College admitted 2111 students to the Class of 1985 in April. The group includes the highest number of minority students and the lowest male-female ratio in the College's history.
