****Brown University Class of 2021 Regular Decision Thread****

Has any international student received a LL yet?

Thx! @lamestprincess

@DryMango I understand your concern, but I made the account just to post here. I’m American, so I cannot provide any insight into the domestic/international question.

That makes sense. I wasn’t necessarily trying to discredit you, just pointing out that sometimes it’s good to be suspicious :slight_smile:

Received a likely letter Monday night: not an athlete, 1460 & 1480 SAT, 34 ACT w/ 35 superscore, 4.5 GPA w/ 4.0 unweighted, 10 APs by graduation, 770 Biology E SAT II, 720 Literature SAT II, 690 Math 2 SAT II (not good but I sent all of my scores anyway), my school doesn’t rank, first generation is my only hook, & decent extracurriculars - a few club leadership roles but nothing extremely special. I was very surprised to receive a letter. (Just for reference)

Congrats! @newuser1234 First gen holds a lot of weight especially since your stats are great. Thanks for sharing

Does everyone have the “Personal Information” tab on their portal? I do but it disappeared for one of my friends…

@stresstasticlife I still have the personal information tab on mine! Maybe it’s a glitch that happened to him/her? (College portals are just so skeptical!)

@kalons yeah, I was thinking that it might be just another portal glitch that Brown is so famous for! I wish there was a “trick” or something to be able to tell if you got in or not a little early–like the UCSD housing trick!

@stresstasticlife ugh, that would be the life! lol

What’s the “personal information” tab? I only have a “Student” tab…

@murpho for me, on the main menu of the portal, it shows a Personal Information, Student and Financial Aid tab.

Annnnnd, the Personal Information tab, when clicked on, displays the following message: “These options are intended only for enrolled Brown University students.”

Oh, and also for the student tab, there’s a box that says “For Summer 2016 and beyond, to search and add courses to your cart, use Brown’s new Course Search Tool - Courses@Brown.” Below is a link saying “Review My Application”.

@stresstasticlife Yeah, I only have one tab - “Student” (I didn’t apply for FA) and no Personal Information tab. I don’t remember if I ever had one though so I can’t say if it “disappeared”. The information/links on our Student tabs is the same. Maybe it’s just glitch.

@newuser1234 what does your admissions portal look like?

@stresstasticlife @murpho There is nothing new on portal. If your click SiteMap. you will see it.
For Summer 2016 and beyond, to search and add courses to your cart, use Brown’s new Course Search Tool - Courses@Brown.

@grtd2010 I don’t understand what you’re saying…

Looking at last year’s RD discussion they figured out that people who didn’t apply for FA don’t have a Personal Information tab.

@murpho ah ok! so the wait goes on :slight_smile:
