<p>the new students tab also appeared on my solar login, but I still have not got an admission decision. Is this bad?</p>

62

<p>now today i go on and check and the new students tab is not their anymore. Did this happen to anyone else?</p>

63

<p>chris,</p>

<p>the new student tab appeared on my solar on thursday, february 4th. I paid the orientation fee as well as paying the fee for enrollment. I’m worried because i haven’t received my acceptance letter in the mail yet. </p>

<p>Is this normal?</p>

64

<p>Chris,
you told me that you thought the max for ap credits was 30. But how many credits do you get per exam?</p>

65

<p>MMM - Weird that you wouldn’t have gotten it yet, but hang in there. There isn’t a whole lot in the letter that you can’t see online, but if you don’t have it in the next week or two, call us.</p>

<p>NYSD - Depends on your score and on the exam. The chart is here:</p>

67

<p>does Stony Brook award credits for IB classes? I’m doing the full diploma, and my school only offers two AP classes, both of which I took.</p>

68

<p>@wisdom - Yes; as long as you have at least a 6 on the higher-level exam.</p>

<p>@MMM - Probably mid-April or thereabouts. Make sure you also complete the New Student Preferences form.</p>

<p>chris, im sorry for bothering you with all these questions but…</p>

<p>when stony brook asks for a “final transcript”, is this asking for the final grades of each class, as in the one letter grade- the average of the 4 quarters OR are they asking for a report card of the year?</p>

72

<p>I applied way back in late September 2009 and still haven’t heard. What is going on? It’s almost March.</p>

73

<p>Thank you for answering my questions, Chris. I have one more.
How many credits do you need to graduate/per semester?</p>

74

<p>@MMM - We mean final final, with all your grades, test scores, and date of graduation on there. You’ll send it some time over the summer.</p>

<p>@seraph - Call us.</p>

<p>@NYSD - Typically 120 credits for most programs, meaning 15 credits/term if you’re planning four years. Journalism is 127, anything in Engineering/Applied Science is 128.</p>

<p>Chris</p>

75

<p>If you didn’t hear yet is it no.</p>

76

<p>Soccer - No, not at all. We’re still sending out decisions, and will be for a couple more weeks.</p>

<p>Chris</p>

77

<p>Chris, D was invited to apply (Feb 1st deadline) using a short (no essay) app after the reg. due date. She is interested in the Scholars for Medicine program but the supplemental app on solar never worked. Will/Can she be considered for this program?</p>

78

<p>Is there a deadline of when Stony Brook has the decisions out by? When were the last decisions sent out last year? Will we hear by 3/15?</p>

79

<p>@plumazul - At this point, no. The deadline for SfM is 12/31; they’re already well into the decision-making process for all the honors programs at this point.</p>

<p>@Soccer - No, we have no deadline, and we can’t use last year as a guide, because the volume is up this year. I wouldn’t give a date, because there are way too many variables. Have you called us to confirm that your application is complete?</p>

<p>Chris</p>

<p>@Chris, ?? then WHY would SB send offers of a “First Priority Application”, that “<br>
* You don’t have to write an essay (just submit a personal statement or graded paper).
* You’ll qualify for priority scholarship consideration.
* You’ll get a first-round admission decision!”
And with a deadline of FEB 1st!</p>

<p>This doesn’t sound like a “distressed” or “limited” application, it SOUNDED legit. Was it just a hoax? A way to raise $$?</p>
