****brandeis 2021 regular decision thread****

@Thecollegegal fingers crossed!

We are not Jewish, however sunset in Boston 6:53 pm so believe that means Sabbath has begun and we are looking at next week?

I am Jewish and I donā€™t know if Brandies does that!

Iā€™ve got nothing.

me neither.

I thought they were supposed to come out on the 23rd?

Just a question for while were waiting: why do you all want to go to brandeis?

@lulu7575 multiple factors hmmm itā€™s not too far away from boston, but at the same time is located in a pretty quiet place. i love their independent major program. also their food was v good (IF YOU HAVENT TRIED THEIR COOKIES YOU HAVENT LIVED) and their whole social justice thing is pretty much up my alley

The location is really key for me, I really want to be in or near a boston. I know this shouldnā€™t be much of a deciding factor at all, but I also have a very good friend who got into Brandeis ED1, and it would be really nice to have a close friend going to school with me :slight_smile: I also am super jazzed about their 5 year masters & PhD programs, and how easy it is to take graduate level courses as an undergrad given I can pass out of a lot of the undergrad CS courses ā€“ I would love to push myself academically really early on in my career. They also have fairly generous need based financial aid, which is especially important for me considering Iā€™m OOS.

Its looking like its next weekā€¦ Still wish it was today so I can hopefully breathe

Can I ask about your guysā€™ standardized tests(SAT &Toefl ) results?
I am so sorry to ask about such private things but I am so nervous about the coming resultā€¦

Haha, it isnā€™t personal (?)
ACT: 34
TOEFL: 113

(My GPA is messed up so dw)

Hi, everyone! Iā€™m an international applicant from India.
My stats-

Hi guys!
I am an international applicant too. I have dual ā€¦ and Israeli citizenship(yes, that is why I want to go to Brandeis). I studied in two schools, including one in Israel.

3 subjects: 760USH, 710BioE, 720math2

Good luck to everyone:)

International from Pakistan

O levels: 4A*s 5As
AS Level :3As
SAT :1380

Iā€™m from Mass and have a 3.99 unweighted gpa, a 4.37 weighted gpa, and a 32 ACT. Really hoping to get a yes from Brandeis. I love the location, the social justice component, and just how incredibly friendly the student body is. Out of all twelve schools I toured Brandeis was by far the friendliest student body.

@qdnbl23
ACT 32 (33ss), did not submit SAT scores, and did not have to take TOEFL
UW 3.9, W 4.2
OOS from PA

Just thought I would let you guys know that I talked with a coach from Brandeis on the phone on Thursday. She said decisions will be released March 23 (Thursday) at 7pm EST. Hope this helps :slight_smile:

Are they mailing their FA offers together with the decisions?

@tula32 The coach told me FA will be mailed the first week in April, so not together with decisions unfortunately.
