i have a 2140 sat score…and an okay gpa…am i an automatic rejection?
All the ivies don’t have a minimum sat or gpa cutoff.
@elmstreetking : What do you consider an “okay” GPA? Your SAT is within range. It is not stellar but it would not be an automatic NO. If your GPA is similar or lower, you would need to stand out in some other way.
Has anyone received an email recently requesting specific financial aid information?
@anxiousEm Yes! I did i actually got a similar one from Brown; as in they both asked for the same info.
@anxiousEm When did you receive the email?
me too, i sent in this stuff already though… i just got the email
Is it true that if you don’t submit a peer recommendation is an automatic rejection?
@ammoopi No. I’ve heard of many people who didn’t submit and got in.
@emilyskates thank you. I didn’t think it was important and didn’t submit and just now I read somewhere that I justI wrote
@anxiousEm Yes! I did (Missing FA docs) as well.
I so need it to be March 31. :-S [-O<
@anxiousEm What information was the email asking for?
Any internationals got it as well?
@TrishaAgarwal They requested information about a specific property – they wanted more information than what was available on the CSS Profile.
@anxiousEm. Thanks
That puts some of my fears at ease!
@TrishaAgarwal I’m glad! May I ask why?
@anxiousEm Well let’s just say I’ve had a lot of wait lists and rejects. And I thought maybe another sign of another wait list or reject. :3
Maybe not then.
@TrishaAgarwal I’m sorry to hear that I’m still waiting on many of my decisions (I applied to an embarrassing number of schools), but I have become acquainted with rejection recently, too. Best of luck to you!!
@anxiousEm I’m waiting on several as well( Well I’ve applied to WAY too many schools according to my American friends). And the wait is agonising. :3
Beat of luck to you too!
@anxiousEm @TrishaAgarwal I don’t know how many you applied to, but I applied to a lot too and still have 9 schools to hear back from, ah! or maybe it’s 8 now, not sure, but I’ve had some waitlists too so I know the feeling
