<p>you will go to Penn Paperrev. You will go to Penn.</p>
<p>If anyone gets in business let me know.</p>
<p>My essay was pretty impressive, I only applied to 2 schools and spent all my time on them. I could have used more time, but I don’t think it was to the point where my essay hurt me. I dunno, I just wish they gave more clear criteria for why I got rejected so I didn’t have to guess.</p>
<p>@xcellion, odds are it is a letter0rejection, I’m not really optomistic since hearing how its thin and all.</p>
<p>By business, glennat, you mean COE?</p>
<p>I still haven’t got the letter, and I live in the west coast, is that normal, should I call them to find out?</p>
<p>I’m trying to decide where to go, columbia or brown!!!</p>
<p>Transferring from: Swarthmore College
Accepted: Columbia, Brown, Penn, Wesleyan
Possible majors: History, Sociology</p>
<p>Brown Pros: I love the campus, I want a “hippie” and liberal school
Brown Cons: I want to get into a good grad school, not academic enough</p>
<p>Columbia Pros: Great reputation, known for being super intellectual
Columbia Cons: I want a college town (I live in ny also), too many preppies?</p>
<p>I only have a week to decide so please let me know your opinions!!! I want to know if my stereotyping is totally off and which school has better departments for my majors.</p>
<p>** I actually don’t care if there’s a core or not. I’m more concerned about the departments and the types of people at the schools

<p>lilygee, </p>
<p>Brown is a top feeder into the best grad programs and its name will get you far. If you are concerned about grad school placement, then you shouldn’t. That being said, I do get the feeling Brown is the better fit. </p>
<p>Good luck!</p>
<p>thank you so much, solace. I think being from a crazy westchester county in new york school has made me a little crazy about the ivies. I think brown will be a better fit. Do you know anything about the undergraduate majors I’m interested in?</p>
<p>akunnamatta, ya sure, aything econimic related i gues</p>
<p>I got into Brown’s COE program. What do you want to know about it? Or do you have questions with regard to your application?</p>
<p>i don’t even know what coe means, spell it out in full</p>
<p>^ [Let</a> me google that for you](<a href=“http://lmgtfy.com/?q=brown+coe]Let”>http://lmgtfy.com/?q=brown+coe). (<– Btw, I’m not trying to be a passive agressive ass with that site; I just think it’s really cool and funny .)</p>
<p>^ Haha, funny.</p>
<p>Yes, it’s the “Commerce, Organizations and Entrepreneurship” concentration at Brown, comparable to a business major, but more so interdisciplinary and less rigid.</p>
<p>So in this thread are there only two of us on the waitlist? Seems promising? haha. A boy can dream.</p>
<p>Add one more to the number of people on the waitlist lol. I’ve been reading this thread for a while, but never posted. Just a heads up, an admissions officer told me they would know if anyone is getting off the waitlist by June 1st.</p>
<p>Hey I’ve also been following this thread for a while. I’ve been waitlisted too. I’m keeping my fingers crossed.</p>
<p>I’m interested to know if anyone actually gets off the transfer waitlist. I was looking through past threads and I really couldn’t find anything out about it</p>
<p>in case anyone is curious, there are around 65 people on the waitlist. i got that number from a transfer counselor when i called the other day, but sadly i was not one of them. good luck to you all and i hope the spots go to the people who really want them :).</p>
<p>okm1ijn: Just curious why you were speaking with Brown since you got your decision a while back ?</p>
<p>CONGRATS to all who got in. I’m thinking of applying for Fall 2011 (soon, I know)!</p>
<p>Eek! 65 is a pretty big number since they hardly take any transfers to begin with. Well, I definitely won’t get my hopes up for getting in.</p>
