Accolades to University of Toronto and Northeastern U as well.

It was pretty impressive. A lot of space to sit and study and interact in addition to real nice lab space and the environmental friendliness.

@EganAg Yes, I agree. I loved the natural light flowing through. It’s a beautiful space.

I’ve been there.
It was awesome! Very modern, spacious, and comfortable; lot’s of natural light inside due to glass walls. I love that concept!

Are you guys from Amherst? Do you happen to know if the transfer decisions will be coming out earlier than scheduled? I am so nervous!

@OwlOfAthena sorry I have no idea. My only connection is that my daughter will be attending there in the fall as a freshman and we went to the open house earlier in the month.

@EganAg

Oh, that’s okay. I was just wondering. Thank you for your response anyway!
Your daughter is a fortunate one. Amherst is truly amazing!

@OwlOfAthena I’m a parent of a first year at Amherst. I did see the same information you probably have seen
about Fall transfer applicants hearing on or around May 15th. I hope you hear some positive news very soon.

@Meddy

Thank you so much for your kind words!
I did see their official schedule, but some schools release their decisions earlier than they officially promise to. I just can’t wait! :slight_smile:

@OwlOfAthena hard for me to imagine they’d release the decisions before May 1st, when the regular decision acceptances are done. The regular decisions came about a week earlier than the promised date.
Good luck. Hope you get in!

@EganAg

Thank you! Me tooo! I wanna do the “Tusks up!” battle cry so bad! XD

@Meddy
@EganAg
