<p>A lot of DE students seem to be getting that message. I got in though, but it didnt say whether or not I got into engineering college, which is where I applied.</p>

3

<p>hmm. I paid a fee & got the same message.</p>

4

<p>I guess this mean’s they’re considering admitting you as a transfer student. What college/major did you apply for and what are your stats?</p>

<p>Don’t give you hope. You could still get in!</p>

5

<p>My stats are ok. The problem with considering people as transfers is that they must complete the prerequisites/first 2yrs.</p>

6

<p>I never got that message. I wonder if it’s something that went wrong with me, or maybe different colleges/majors do things differently.</p>

<p>I applied as an AA student for History, yet received no message acknowledging this.</p>

<p>Same here. I applied for Biology/Pre-med as a high school/AA applicant and and never got any such messages. But i do know they evaluate high school/AA applicants for both freshman and transfer admissions. If they can’t admit you as a freshman, you can get admitted as a transfer student but you need to have completed all the pre-requisite courses for your major. What major did you apply for?</p>

<p>I got the same message!! I am really freaking out. I applied as a biochemistry major, but have not been accepted yet. That same message is all that is on my status. Any of you dual enrollment students get in tonight?? I just don’t understand why I haven’t found out yet.</p>

<p>I applied into Warrington for Economics. I meet all of the pre-requisites so I’m pretty hopeful, but now my chances are slightly lower than the average applicant. I’m extremely frustrated. I try to succeed by taking the hardest classes since day one, and now I’m being penalized for it. Excellent!</p>

Admissions officers notice these things. If there are two options for a requirement, and one is clearly harder, I wouldn’t be surprised if they valued a B from the harder one as much or more than an A from the easier one.</p>

<p>Has anyone from this thread received any updates?</p>
