<p>Lol I finished mine back in December ! but I just asked my counselor to send my transcripts yesterday. </p>
<p><em>fingers crossed</em> Hope I get in :D</p>
<p>ok so I applied early action and i got a letter that said tis in the mail…</p>
<p>Thank you for you application to Howard University. After Careful consideration, your application has been refferd to the Admission Committee for further review… The referral of your application will allow the admission committee representing your chosen major to further evaluate your application relative to the requisites of their program…If you have any recent academic achievements…you are encouraged to submit them… </p>
<p>I don’t really get what this means, especially because of this sentence
As the Admission Committee regularly convenes, a decision may be rendered on your application as early as the coming weeks, but may be deffered to the end of april</p>
<p>Can someone please clarify what type of desicion this is and what it means?? Because to me it doesn’t seem like a defference so I’m royally confused.</p>
<p>I suppose that they need to give another look on ur application and I think that they haven’t made a decision yet , I think they will give ur papers to the college u r interested in !
I think that they have said that bcuz of ur stats !
What r they ?</p>
<p>What’s up,</p>
<p>I’m transferring to Howard for the Fall 2011 from Hampton University/Georgia State I have a 3.96 gpa and will be a junior in the fall. I was accepted in the Spring 2011 but was deferred due to scholarship eligibility for the fall semester.
I have a question about the housing my top choices are either Howard Plaza West, Cook Hall (if available), and Slowe Hall (is this coed??..on the web it says coed dorm).
I heard about the crime by the Howard Plaza Towers so I was trying to stay either in Cook or Slowe (if coed).</p>
<p>Thanks for your help.</p>
<p>my stats…
GPA 2.9-3.0 because of standard classes freshman and sophmore year

<p>I received my acceptance letter to Howard mid December. Although I didn’t get any information about scholarships. According to Howard’s web site I am 20 SAT points away from the Legacy scholarship, because of this I decided to take the SAT’s again this saturday. Would I still be considered for scholarships after I get my scores on Feb 10th?</p>
<p>Yes you will still be considered for scholarships. You can upgrade your scholarship until May, I believe…
I had the same question because I qualified for the Legacy scholarship, but I wanted to see if I could increase.</p>
<p>Hi everyone Im new to this and I saw this post and really wanted to join.Im Senior in High School now and I really want to go to Howard.But I have SAT Scores 0f 1180 and 18 on ACT and I know they are very low but Im going to take them over. You guys dnt understand Howard is my dream school.Do you guys think I have a chance of getting in. My GPA is 2.9w/2.5uw …And they said SAT is 1450 and ACT is 21 Im panicking because I think I won’t get in…Im so scared I live in florida and I havent applied yet</p>
<p>Thanks xcollegexboundx that was really helpful!</p>
<p>@Mike92 you’ll be fine I have similar stats and i applied early action… i got sent to committee reveiw but I know of ppl with worse stats who will get in and according to the college site that my school uses they accepted someone with a 1.0 GPA las year so don’t sweat it</p>
<p>Is this the signature page?: [Signature</a> Page](<a href=“http://www.howard.edu/enrollment/apply/undergraduate-signature.htm]Signature”>http://www.howard.edu/enrollment/apply/undergraduate-signature.htm)</p>
<p>i’m not sure because, i assumed we’d have to sign something. i wish i read the instructions beforehand !</p>
<p>also, what are the chances of getting a scholarship by now? I submitted my application pretty late (Jan. 18) but my gpa is 3.6 and i got a 29 on the ACT, plus i’ve got a few extracurriculars (academic team, track team, newspaper, student gov, etc.) and job experience. i’m really hoping i still have a chance at a scholarship orrrr i’m SOL.</p>
<p>Just a question out of curiosity…</p>
<p>Is there sorority and frat house at Howard? I’ve heard that Greek life is really big there…</p>
<p>Hey all,</p>
<p>I’m a National Achievement Semifinalist and I’m fairly certain I made Finalist… But I’m 1 ACT/20 SAT point(s) away from qualifying for HU’s Presidential Scholarship. I know someone said they think Howard updates score through May… does that mean they’ll take new ones from April or May?</p>
<p>Also, if I qualify for a scholarship that covers housing but I don’t live on campus, will I get the value of room to apply toward off-campus housing?</p>
<p>Thanks!</p>
<p>I got responses from Howard. If anyone was wondering, the answer to the first question is yes and the answer to the second question is no.</p>
<p>Has anyone already received their scholarship award package yet?</p>
<p>Ok, so I submitted my application online two weeks ago and sent in my transcript, essay, etc a week ago. My application status still says not entered…why is this?? How long will it take for them to get to my app? Also, I’ll be retaking the ACT in a few weeks and hopefully qualify for a scholarship. Does anyone know when Howard starts running out of money?? Thanks!</p>
<p>If Howard Application Summary says that the decision has been made and that I have been accepted into the school but I havent received an acceptance letter or anything else yet does that still mean I’m in?</p>
<p>No when an application status says “a decision has been made” that just means that you will be receiving your decision soon… Good Luck!</p>
<p>So them saying congratulations on your acceptance means nothing unless i get a letter :(</p>
