<p>@booksandcats: I honestly don’t know but I would take it as a good sign 
and also, I agree that 120 acceptances is low. If he was referring to students expected to enroll, then that sounds right. However, I don’t know how someone can predict that. I was under the impression that Brown has typically offered 200 acceptances from ~2000 applicants in recent years, but I could be wrong.</p>
<p>Also booksandcats, would you mind posting or directing us to your stats?</p>
<p>@nlm2993 that’s my guess too but I’m still skeptical</p>
<p>@anthro4387 I think I posted my stats on this thread before. I’m a first year Ucla regents scholar majoring in bizecon. 3.87ishhh GPA with an additional quarter of summer classes. My essays and LORs were strong imo. In total I sent in 4- one hs, 2 college tas and 1 internship mentor. My ECs are pretty interesting but nothing out of this world.
Straight As in high school until I caught senioritis. And finally sat scores superscore 2350 and subject tests 2280.</p>
<p>I didn’t apply for FA</p>

<p>Just got denied admission to NYU. I’m pretty sure that means I will be denied to B. oh well. que sera sera, I will be at UCLA. Lucky to be a CA resident.</p>
<p>You never know what’ll happen. It doesn’t mean your chances are shot.
But ah, I haven’t heard back from NYU yet…</p>
<p>this work for anyone? not me…

<p>When I log in to my Brown account, I can no longer see what I owe to Brown. Like my standardized test scores or my school reports. Oh well, I’m hoping for the best, but expecting the worst. My back up IS NYU.</p>
<p>^same here Portmaneau5.</p>
<p>^I mean if you go to UCLA, you shouldn’t really worry about getting into Brown that much. Depending on your major, it might not have too much of an effect on your life or even grad school admissions. As long as you have a killer GPA (which you do) I’m sure you’ll be fine. I understand that it will hurt if you don’t get in somewhere, but getting into Brown isn’t an end all. </p>
<p>It might be different because I go to NYU, but for me at least, I want to get into banking, preferably equity research. (Which some people might argue is harder than investment banking) NYU and Brown are basically on par with each other. NYU might even have a slight advantage because I’m interning in Equity Research over the summer and over the year as well. It could help me break into a bulge bracket come junior internships (just around the corner) or some street-paying boutique. </p>
<p>Anyways, what I just did was rationalize how to make NYU work. You should do the same for UCLA. We both have very high GPA’s and I’m sure that’ll lead to good job opportunities and grad schools. Honestly, I want to go to Brown because I don’t fit in so much socially here at NYU, but I do like the academics and middle eastern studies department that can’t be touched by Brown. (See what I did there? Do the same with UCLA.)</p>
<p>haha, thanks. I am an accepted transfer to UCLA. ccc student currently. I am totally fine with going to UCLA, in fact more than fine, it is an excellent institution. I really like the feel of Brown though and to attend would be fulfillment of a goal and a dream. Hope you get in, but I understand what you’re saying, we are both going to be at top universities in the fall, even if it is not Brown.</p>
<p>Hi everyone, I am just wondering if anyone can still log into or even see the status site on Brown’s website.?? I don’t think there’s still a link on the admission website, it doesnt mean an automatic rejection, right?</p>
<p>I can still log in, but not from the admissions website. Going through selfservice.brown.edu did the trick. We can’t update after today, maybe that’s why they removed the link.</p>
<p>Hmmm, I can still log on.</p>
<p>I can still log in but I had to go through selfservice.brown.edu like ettohtiw said. Did it work for you when you tried going through there, CoffeeLA?</p>
<p>For people who are not living at their home address currently, did you indicate the dates you are at the alternate location? I am wondering where Brown will send my letter because I never saw an option to indicate dates. I am hoping that I, not my parents, get the mail :/</p>
<p>@DinoRawr6; thank you so much for asking!! :] Yeah, I think it was something wrong with my Mac, so when I clicked the link I saved for self-service, it said FORBIDDEN… and I was definitely concerned and kinda thought that was a bad sign>< but yeah, I tried again by just typing the site and I was able to log in.
Is there anyone planning on calling the Admission office next Monday?</p>
<p>I just called to ask when decisions would be released. She said everybody will be receiving them in the mail next week. She said they’re mailing them to both the permanent address as well as the mailing address. Unfortunately, I think I put my mailing address AS my permanent address, so my family will be receiving the letter and I won’t be. I asked if we would be able to call next week to find out the decision and the woman did not answer me (that’s when she mentioned the mailing address bit). So I’m not sure what the story is with that.</p>
<p>AlyssaKara, thank you very much for the information.</p>
<p>norcaltransfer - Yeah man, just think of all the positives associated with staying at UCLA. I mean for me, breaking into banking from Brown will be relatively just as hard (or easy) as breaking in from NYU. At NYU, I can intern over the year, whereas, at Brown, I would have to give up my internship. As long as I keep thinking that, I’ll be fine. </p>
<p>If I get into Brown for some miraculous reason, would I go? Probably. But I can hardly complain about doing equity research at an elite boutique all the while doing well academically. Yeah, I might not be having as much fun, but it’s just another two years. (That’s gonna be 2% of my life if I live until 100 lol)</p>
