Brown Transfer Application

<p>Has anyone received the brown transfer application yet? I believe remembering that when I requested a paper copy that I was told that would be sent out after December 1st, but I can't be sure. I am getting very anxious waiting for it so I'll be happy with any information anyone has on this topic.</p>

<p>Thanks.</p>

<p>I've requested one a few times from their website. I believe the date was mid December, but I'm not too sure about that either. I'd also appreciate any additional info.</p>

<p>Thanks for answering. It's nice to see another person applying to transfer to Brown. I don't know anyone else who is applying so I get kinda stressed when I have a question and no one to talk to that's going through the same thing.</p>

<p>yeah, i've requested an app at least three times... </p>

<p>i really want to go to brown, but they really stress the fact that they are need aware for transfers, which worries me, but i will apply, nonetheless. </p>

<p>keep us posted if anyone learns anything new!</p>

<p>The site states that the applications will be available in mid-December, so one should not be worried unless it is the 20th of December and nothing has happened.</p>

<p>Hey guys! I will also be applying to transfer to Brown, and also have yet to receive the application I requested.</p>

<p>If December 11th isn't mid december then I don't know what is. (just kidding) I suppose I will just continue waiting, hoping that tomorrow will finally be the day.</p>

<p>I am also pretty worried about the financial issue, I am really starting to debate if I check the finanical aid box or not. I don't want acceptance to depend on if I can pay or not, though they'll likely reject me before they even consider that:)</p>

<p>is anyone else applying to enter as a sophomore?</p>

<p>PVbebe: I am. But after this semester, it probably won't work >_<</p>

<p>I am thinking of calling the admissions office tomorrow to check the status of the applications, so I will post an update if I do.</p>

<p>At any rate, I do not remember to what address I requested my application. If it is at Georgetown, I will not get it until January since I am leaving before it arrives. I hope I submitted my home address.</p>

<p>nspeds, if you dont mind me asking, what is it about georgetown that makes you want to leave?</p>

<p>I am actually unsure if I want to leave. I love the academics of this place, but the social atmosphere is unsettling. I do not party at all, and I do not like the party-mentality. I do not agree with the students' approach to studying: they appear to see education as a means to an end, rather than education for the sake of education. </p>

<p>I am lacking academic motivation from my peers, which is what hope to gain from another place.</p>

<p>I might not even apply, or go if I am admitted; Georgetown is a wonderful university despite its setbacks. I just want to see what happens and decide from there.</p>

<p>"I do not agree with the students' approach to studying: they appear to see education as a means to an end, rather than education for the sake of education."</p>

<p>Well put. </p>

<p>My question: then what are we all doing on this board?</p>

<p>How much is ability to pay really factored into admissions. Will it greatly decrease the chances of getting in? What financial brackets does 'need awareness' effect the most?</p>

<p>yeah, i get a lot of aid at my current school, so I hopefully won't be dinged immediately from Brown because of that.</p>

<p>If they do accept you, does that mean they'll meet 100% of aid? Or will they accept and gap you? I'd rather have the latter than the former.</p>

<p>Why is it that I feel so incessantly ostrasized by this loving website? Why cannot we meta-analyze our habitual activities as we do the abstract concepts? Oh oh -- oh if my CC comrades would join in me in conquering this trough of uncertainty and WAITING, WAITING pour la decision. GOSH. </p>

<p>You people have no passion. I must resign. </p>

<p>My love to you all,
I bid you farewell.</p>

<p>english, i emailed them and asked that question. they said, if admitted, i would receive the same amount of aid as if i were applying as a first-year, which they claim to be 100%. i'm weary about them accepting me for checking the FA box, though. they seem to stress it quite a bit.</p>

<p>nspeds, that's EXACTLY what my situation is too. the people here dont care about learning for learnings sake. the partying doesnt really bother me, because i know that'll be everywhere. i dont party and drink, but if i ever did decide to drink, i wouldnt want to do it with the kinds of people here.</p>

<p>I'm with you on applying and getting the results and going from there, nspeds.</p>

<p>I spoke to the admissions office today. They said that the applications will likely be mailed after the holidays.</p>

<p>If you apply to enter as a sophomore, do they wait to see your 2nd semester grades before making an admissions decision?</p>
