Brown Class of 2020 Early Decision Discussion

@actssmart I’m in the same boat as you! B+/A- gpa and 2060 SATs. Hopefully the other strong parts of my application can give me some leverage. Best of luck to you!!!

@ruby21 and I are going to party like no tomorrow assuming we get in… lol (except theres no way in hell i have a change…)

When is the earliest the decisions can come out?

GOOD LUCK TO EVERYONE ON THIS THREAD THOUGH :slight_smile: I read everyone’s strengths listed down a few posts ago, and I truly believe everyone deserves to get in! Let’s all hope for the best :slight_smile:

Been thinking about this all day…5 P.M. can’t come any sooner…

Last minute, but good luck everyone! :slight_smile:

5 PM what time zone?

Is there a chance decisions will come out early?

I live in Ohio, so EST!

Today’s the day! Good luck to everyone and may the odds be ever in your favor. (HG junkie lol)

@brownedapp2020 in past years I’ve seen people report their results as early as noon…but last year it was on time at 5. so who knows! I’ve been checking all day. I should probably relax, haha

For a few years, they tried to stagger decisions, so that’s why it was reported earlier in previous years. Don’t expect it before 5.

so do you guys think its probably a waste of time to check before 5?

You guys are awesome. Just think about your past 12 years of studying, hardworking,and everything… Of course Brown is a wonderful place, but even if we don’t get in, let’s give ourselves a round of applause for being amazing daughters or sons, classmates, friends, and students. I congratulate in advance the people who got accepted!! Good job! And for the rest of us, still amazing. Just take a deep breath before checking your results and try to drink a lot of water today. Good luck everyone

I’ve been checking every hour since 5am… Not sure I can stop myself!

@cologirl Oh my god, same here. I know they won’t be out for a couple more hours but I can’t stop checking.

Where do you guys check your results? In the admission website or the application summary page?

Good luck everybody. Just to reiterate what I said the other day:

Before decisions come out today, go to the Common App website and download your application. Just read through it, and don’t lose sight of all the hard work—clichés aside—that you poured into your app.

I did that the other day, and it gave me a wave of relief. I’m proud of my application, and I know that I will be happy no matter where I end up.

I just had the biggest heart attack when the following message appeared on the portal:

"Dear Applicant to the Class of 2020,
You may view the decision on your application beginning the evening of December 10, 2015. Whatever the decision, we thank you sincerely for having applied to Brown.

but the when you click the link it just says

"December 10, 2015

[NAME[

Dear [NAME],

Admission decisions are currently not available. Check the Undergraduate Admission web site for specific dates and times.

I saw the same thing and legit almost lost my mind… that was playing with my emotions way too much

I was in chemistry class at 12:00. I’m so terrified now.
