**Brown Class of 2020 RD applicant thread**

Here we go people! Got deferred ED, and thus my hope is pretty shot at this point, but I have some great RD options, so even if Brown doesn’t come through with the clutch win I’m all good. Good luck! May the odds be ever in your favor.

@mg29409 I see, thanks. I’ve never logged onto the portal until today, so I don’t really know what it’s supposed to look like.

Do they send out emails?? Or do we have to check portals for decision

@mg29409 just sent the message

@bobchillax sure! message them to me and I’ll do the same

@Kna477 Check your portal. They sent an email earlier this week with a link to check your decision.

14 hours, guys. I should be asleep, but I can’t…

@wonderlanddd Can totally relate…

I’m with you on the financial aid angle. I’ve seen the same pattern with other schools clearly moving on by a certain date and then the rejection follows.

I gather the FA office knows a lot more than we think. There is also overlap in the top tier administration between Admissions and FA.

Rhdhtai/exl028:
If you guys are seeing interest in your paperwork at this stage, I think they are still trying to work it.

Just a thought…at 4am
;:wink:

12 hours 30 minutes left, I sleep for 9 hours, looks like I’m going to bed at 5am

I just bought me some ice-cream for the inevitable aftermath :")

@McKilla99 That…is actually a very good idea. I should go buy some sweets…

@violintigress Probably London School of Economics. I really think that I will get rejected by Brown anyways so lol :stuck_out_tongue:

Couldn’t sleep, and now I have to go to school where nothing else will be on my mind except the decisions. I have this constant feelimg of butterflies in my stomach. How are you all holding up? I know some of us didn’t sleep oast night either…

@mg29409 that describes me perfectly. School will end early tomorrow, so I’ll be home for 2 hours before decisions come out.

@mg29409 Same feeling here, too. Decisions are coming out in middle of our literature class while we are studying some poems discussing the futility of life. Don’t think I can concentrate either before or after the decisions…

@collegebound1915 Very interesting… I hope it’s a good sign for you. :slight_smile: This year many Columbia ED students recieved @columbia.edu email addressed activated hours before the actual decision came out. It was activated for their portal in order to see the welcome page. :slight_smile:

My math class today finishes an hour before decisions come out. Going to check it when I reach home. Good luck to all of you!

It’s coming out 5 in the morning for me…nothing worse than starting a day with a rejection.

I think we already wrapped this up but for the for course recommendations for me it lists courses in biology and political science and African American studies (all that I mentioned in my application). At this point I’ve made plans to hang out with friends tonight and we all applied to Ivy League schools so we’ll just fill the void with memories lmao.
