<p>I haven't received my evaluation yet, but I have a question... do we have to take those common core classes even if we're transferring in as juniors?</p>
<p>Uh... yes.</p>
<p>its weird----i gotta make some changes for that thing.....</p>
<p>i took a history class that fits exactly under civilizations, and they dumped it into the elective pool</p>
<p>bball: Are you going to Chicago?</p>
<p>I hear they don't like to give too much Core credit.</p>
<p>How many classes did they outright decline to give any credit for? How many transferred as Core?</p>
<p>So I'm guessing it's pretty hard then to finish in 2 years if you're transferring in as a junior and you have to take all the core classes...</p>
<p>I don't think so - 6-7 quarters is what I have heard. Some credit transfers as Core.</p>
<p>i would be entering as a sophmore</p>
<p>my estimated amount of quarters of completion to finish my degree</p>
<p>7-9</p>
<p>basically...i can only take only 3 classes a quarter, and NEVER 4, and finish on time</p>
<p>hmm so are you going?!</p>
<p>Eh...lucky.</p>
<p>I still haven't received anything in the mail from Chicago, let alone a course evaluation. Never even received an email. I only know that I was admitted because of calling Jerry first, and then a counselor and secretary separately -because- I hadn't received anything.</p>
<p>Bball: You completed one year at Cornell or two?</p>
<p>1 year-----i was pretty pleased w. the credit eval...AP CREDITS were very HELPFUL</p>
<p>i can finish on time by taking only 3 a quarter forever as long as i choose the right courses</p>
<p>No AP - accepted all but 3 of my courses. I need 19-20 courses at Chicago to graduate in six quarters. Woohoooo :D</p>
<p>Is the standard courseload three courses per quarter?</p>
<p>BBall: Clear some PM space.</p>
<p>Three courses per quarter is the standard in the way five per semester is. You CAN take four, like you CAN take six.</p>
<p>One needs 42 credits to graduate, 1 course = 1 credit. Over a 4 year period, that translates to 6 quarters at 3 courses, and 6 at 4 courses. Of course, placement and AP credit can help as well. My S took 4 his first year, will be doing a full year of chemistry over the summer (3 credits), then doing 3 courses for 3 quarters. He actually will need more than 42 credits to do what he wants to do. Yea, I agree, he's nuts.</p>
<p>neverborn, my pm box is empty now</p>
<p>at northwestern, weinberg is 45!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!</p>
<p>and northwestern for transfer credit, only gives 1 unit per each class, even at semester schools</p>
<p>at least chicago, gave me some 3 unit things for 2 semester classes, and took 6 ap credits as 6 units....</p>
<p>So only 2 days left...make a decision yet?</p>
<p>I bet his decision is...</p>
<p>Everyone who would like an extension on the transfer reply date of June 15 should call Krystal at 773-702-8650.</p>
