Ask a Current Howard Student

<p>hi everyone =)
I applied to Howard online for early action. I recently checked my status and it said decision made. I’m super nervous! I mean it says decision made but why wont they tell me the decision! When will I find out?</p>

<p>Also, KidPoetic i read your post about being unsure if your app was sent. It most likely was. The same thing happened to me, it said incomplete first but it was just because it took a while for them to update their site. Also, your school is supposed to send your transcript and rec letters.</p>

<p>So is it possible for me to have my guidance counselor to resend my transcript & rec letters? This whole process is so confusing, and it still says it’s incomplete. I’m going to call them tomorrow after school.</p>

<p>yea u should make your guidance counselor send it. But you should email and call them because their lines are busy at least they were when I called them. Are you sure you sent them to right address? If you did then talk to your guidance counselor and they should tell you what they think and whether or not to resend it. BTW if you applied online you were supposed to print out the signature page sign it and mail that. That could be an explanation to why it says incomplete unless it specifically says that its missing your transcript/grades, etc.</p>

<p>I finally checked again and it no longer says that they are missing information. You should definitely talk to your counselor KidPoetic! </p>

<p>Mine also says decision made! Unfortunately it says that acceptance/denial letters don’t usually go out until late December! I’m super nervous! Good luck both of you!</p>

<p>I called Howard on Monday and the lady I spoke to said it takes a while to sort through the paperwork, and if it’s not fixed by next Monday to call her. She also told me that me sending my transcript in myself was alright, as long as my GC had sealed and initialed it. </p>

<p>still no change on the website, but I’m being optimistic. Goodluck to you both as well. hopefully we’ll all be there in the fall =)</p>

<p>What if we did’nt print out that signature page? I called today and the lady said I can download it from the website but I can’t find it anywhere.</p>

<p>Wow! To bad the OP hasn’t come back! It is so exciting to see all this interest! I went there from 77-80 (BS) and 80-84 (MD).</p>

<p>its supposed to be there when u submit ur app, it says signature page</p>

<p>oops i didn’t print out the signature page either…</p>

<p>but does anyone know what there is to do in the surrounding area of howard?</p>

<p>They said to just disregard it then if you forgot to print out the signature page.</p>

<p>Oh okayy…im just so excited/ nervous right now because online it says if you applied early action then they will give you the decision by December 15th…13 days away (:</p>

<p>Ahhh! haha well thats sooner then i thought cause everyone was sayen Christmas eve</p>
