Has anyone not gotten an interview request?
Brown’s website now says that the decisions will be available on December 10 at 5:00
I have not been contacted for an interview. Should I call the admissions office or just wait it out?
My stress level is gradually ramping up as the 10th gets closer. I don’t know how I’ll survive lolol. Finally got contacted for an interview yesterday. Why are the reports due on the 7th if decisions come out on the 10th? I imagine most decisions would already have been made?
@brookelr I’m guessing that means they don’t really carry a lot of weight. Although brown tries to make sure everyone is interviewed, if you’re not, it doesn’t count against you at all, so they may not even read some of the reports that come in right on the deadline. Maybe they’ll read the reports for applicants they’re on the fence about? In the case that an applicant gets deferred, they’ll read it when they revisit the application I’m sure!
@cologirl email alumni relations they handle interviews. you might as well confirm whether or not you have one.
brown has not asked my counselor for first quarter grades so far. does anyone know how late they may request them? i’m nervous because they’re not as good as my junior year grades.
would it be a good idea to send the admissions office with a scanned document of my first quarter grades? only considering this because they’re better than my junior year grades.
@mojojojoo I’m pretty sure your college counselor has to send your grades so they know it’s official!
@artblogger she told me she isn’t supposed to send first quarter grades so if I want brown to see them, I have to send them
@mojojojoo she’s wrong. She can send them using the optional report, and that’s how you should send them if you’re going to.
If my counselor submitted my first marking period grades would I see that on the Brown portal?
@elizabrown if they used the optional report you’d see it on your common app, but they may not have
Is it a bad sign if they don’t want your first quarter grades?
nervous…
i’m wondering the same thing @gearsstudio
@collegebobollege If my common app says “Downloaded” next to Optional Report for Brown, does that mean that my counselor sent my first quarter grades?
@wifigirl @gearsstudio I think it could be good or bad… like, they don’t need them to make a decision maybe?
@artblogger yep!
This whole first quarter grade situation is really scaring me…didn’t receive any request as of now…
