Brown University class of 2021 ED applicants discussion

okay, thats what i thought. thank you :slight_smile:

@littlemousling i think that all my essays are pretty crap, but Iā€™m also very hard on myself and super criticalā€¦ but i totally understand, i think everything i do can be better haha

i just submitted my application!!!

I submitted my application, Iā€™ve found that itā€™s best for me to entirely push something out of my mind if I have no control over the outcome. Now, to live my life until decisions come out!

Anyone get an email from Brown about setting up a Brown account? I applied yesterday, not sure how long it takes normally to get the email.

@ricka8 iā€™ve heard theyā€™re sending an email to all ED applicants this wednesday. :slight_smile:

I called to ask about the emails and Brown admissions said they will be sent out next Wednesday, 11/9. This will have the ID number to create an account so we can see the application progress and all that.

Do you guys think youā€™ll get in? Even knowing you are a competitive applicant and have done all your stuff, all I can think to do is stress about not getting in.

Thatā€™s the downside of ED. You put your heart and soul into this one school, clearly falling in love with it. You are ALL competitive, deserving applicants; seemingly randomly, some will get admitted and many will not. Sigh. If only all the ED applicants could now get amnesia so totally forget about Brown for a few weeks. But alas, life doesnā€™t work that way. My little Brown wannabe thinks about it constantly. Good luck to all of you! If you are not at Brown a year from now, you will STILL love where you are and the school will be lucky to have you. Onward and upward.

@lf1999 i personally donā€™t :frowning: i think my supplements/personal statement/ECs are all good, but i wish my test scores were higher. that being said, iā€™ve accepted that everything happens for a reason and weā€™ll all end up where weā€™re supposed to be. iā€™m sure your application is wonderful! :slight_smile: the rest is out of our hands, and december 15th will be here before we know it.

@ricka8 wait Nov 9! but we only have until nov 12 to send in our supplementary research materialsā€¦ if we have science research supplements, theyā€™re expecting us to get them in from nov 9-12??

brownā€™s email says we will get the brown account
ā€œthe second Wednesday after submitting your Common Applicationā€ so it canā€™t be nov 9 for everyone

I regret each day for not trying hard enough my junior year. Submitted yesterday waiting for ā€œThank Youā€.

did you guys apply anywhere else early? i applied to Brown, UChicago, Northeastern, U Michigan and U of Utah (because the priority deadline for the honors college was nov 1 and Iā€™m in state so it makes sense lol)

@lf1999 I applied to Northeastern EA yesterday

Finally applied after reading my supplements twenty times for typos lol. Submitted a visual arts photo supp too. Now the decision is out of my hands, and I know that I put my best foot forward. Good luck everyone!!!

Just submitted my application!! Great way to spend my last halloween at homeā€¦ but oh my god it was so scary I was literally shaking. Now we wait! Good luck to everyone

Hey everyone, Iā€™m joining this late but I just applied yesterday! Iā€™m preparing myself for rejection, but I am excited nonetheless. Iā€™ll keep you all updated and I wish you all the best of luck. :slight_smile:

Hello everyone! Submitted my application an hour ago. Didnā€™t receive any confirmation mail from Brown yet. Is it something to worry about?

Do most people submit portfolios???
