Brown Class of 2022 Applicants Discussion

@gobruno22 My brother is a recruited athlete!

I sent a facebook message to Brown undergraduate admissions. They will let us know their decisions no later than the 16th.

@juju612 I’m currently doing Differential Equations and Linear Algebra, and previously did Multivariable Calculus (and obviously, before that AB and BC at school). By the time I graduate I’ll also have finished the calc-based Physics intro sequence for Physics majors (I did mechanics, taking electromagnetism next semester) (It’s funny because I’m not even planning on being a Physics concentrator- I’m looking at Geology-Chemistry and Astronomy) @mackblue AWWWWW I LOVE HIM (her?)

I agree with @sciencenerd123 , the lack of a specific date and time might feel annoying, but constantly bothering admissions officers about it won’t help anyone. Just take a deep breath everyone, it’s probably going to be tomorrow.

There is no “Ivy Week.”

Brown’s part is to notify applicants mid-December.

I love the political discussions! So disappointed I was asleep last night and missed it. But anyway, here’s to hoping we all get that email from Brown today!

They just created the Facebook group for admitted students within the past hour
 no description for it yet though. It is linked to Brown’s Admissions Facebook page.

Is it the same as the other facebook group or a new one?

As far as I can tell it looks like a new one that is very similar to the one we’d seen deleted.

I am excited!!! The AO in my region is in that group! The result may come out soon omg I am nervous

@Dashriek_712 4pm in which time zone?

The new page was deleted/ is not showing up. Omg I just want to know so badly

Yeah they deleted it again. Omg stop messing with my emotions!

@Dashriek_712 please tell me you’re talking about Akron OH because that would be so crazy, I’m from there

Can sending in your financial aid documents late affect your admission decision because I just sent mine and I am scared it might be too late. Please tell me it doesn’t

Financial aid stuff is due at the same time as the ED application deadline I believe. It’s definitely too late–I don’t think it will affect your admissions decision, but you probably won’t get financial aid idk.

Early Decision financial aid documents were due November 1st, regular decision due Feb 1st.

If you do get in, you will have to break the ED agreement because you won’t have financial aid and I assume you probably won’t be able to pay full tuition. I guess your best bet is to hope you get deferred and then your financial aid stuff will be there by the regular decision deadline. Then hope you get accepted RD. Maybe if you get in, you can talk to them but I doubt they will be flexible considering the deadline was more than a month ago.

I can’t 100% verify the accuracy of this, but I’ve heard from past Brown applicants that if you turn in your financial documents late, it just results in a delay in receiving your financial aid package. But it won’t affect your decision and you will probably still receive financial aid. Again, not 100% sure that’s accurate, but it’s what I’ve heard. Brown seems pretty understanding and if you get in they will probably help you work things out.

Question: do you think my chances of getting in are more slim that before bc I didn’t submit subject tests?
