Hey guys. I made a thread for Ivy Day, so if any of you guys want to check it out and wait it out, hereā€™s the link:

Good luck! :)>-

If you encounter the situation that the Financial Aid Office of Brown University requested some personal documentation to prove some unique case, see what happened to Avianca last year ā€“ http://talk.qa.collegeconfidential.com/profile/comments/100577847/Avianca

Previously I stated that you will get your financial aid package together with your decision, I am actually not sure because we only checked our financial aid package the day after decision day last year. I apologize for the confusion.

I only have my FAFSA and CSS profile up, so Iā€™m pretty sure that Brown rejected me. All the other schools Iā€™ve been accepted to have emailed me about Financial Aid requirements prior to decisions being released. At this point Iā€™m just gonna check to see if I was waitlisted or rejected. I donā€™t want everyone to lose hope, but thatā€™s about where I am right now.

I will be going to Grinnell or Lewis and Clark if I donā€™t get into Brown. Either way, Iā€™m happy.

Iā€™ll be going to WashU or Georgia Tech, either of which Iā€™m happy about so Iā€™m not super nervous, although I just want to know!

@beezkneez1 hasnā€™t that theory been disproven by likely letter admits and ED round? Fin aid and admissions are not correlated. Iā€™ve gotten request for additional things to schools I were rejected from but some schools that admitted me didnā€™t ask for more info until after I was admitted. Trust me if you could tell whether u got in just by fin aid stuff brown woulda changed things a long time ago

JHU, Michigan, Brandeis, Macaulay Honors, and Wesleyan are my Plan B options, and theyā€™re all amazing but I would love to get into an ivy

did anyoneā€™s upload doc thing disappear?

@Lemonade22 Mine is still there. Did it disappear for you?

@IlluminatiIsReal No, i read last year that peopleā€™s disappeared that day and that was indicative of accept or reject

my backup is now Vandy as of yesterday, which also disproved the fa theory (at least for vandy) as they didnā€™t take any of my IDOC documents or ask for anything other than fafsa and css profile. still gave me an aid package too.

@BrKmNk @mmstanfordbound

Northeastern and Brown researchers and professors worked together to develop the CS curriculum at both schools and still work closely to this day, so youā€™ll find very similar experiences in CS at both. Matthias Felleisen and Shriram Krishnamurthi are the main leads for the research/program design for Northeastern and Brown respectively. The teaching approach is very different from most CS programs and is viewed very favorably by all I know that have gone through it at Northeastern, Brown, and Waterloo.
