Brown Class of 2020 Early Decision Discussion

@ffina23 My counselor is completely different. He doesn’t want me to apply for EDII, since he said I would have a lot of options in April.

I got deferred :(. I really wanted to go to Brown hopefully they reconsider me.

I just love the open curriculum. <3

a girl from my school got in ED. im not sure what her SAT scores were but i dont think they were outstanding, her ECs were editor for our school newspaper and working through junior year, her UW gpa is like a 3.7 in a full IB Diploma program

a hook was that shes a minority

Hey guys, I got deferred ED and my friend told me that in order to reconfirm interest to schools we got deferred to we should send our regional admissions counselor an email explaining why the school is still our number one choice. Should I do this? Anyone have any tips, rules, or advice for going about this the right way? Thanks!!

you should, but after you finish submitting your other apps - don’t waste time on this when there are more important things to do.

I imagine it’s pretty similar to a waitlist interest letter. This is what I wrote in 2007 about the letter I submitted in 2005:
