Deferred ED and in RD pool-how does it affect the chances?

<p>

</p>

<p>I’ve never heard this.</p>

<p>risubu - you had to do IDOC for Brown? am i missing something???</p>

<p>As fireandrain said I’ve never heard of that but you are also confusing how rolling vs non rolling works. Up until literally the day they mail those decisions out they can change who is and isn’t accepted. No spots have been “filled” before that.</p>

<p>I had to do IDOC as well. I’m pretty sure it is a necessity.</p>

<p>Okay, good because that whole thing stressed me out so badly. I’ve lost so much sleep over it too. Thanks for clearing that up!</p>

<p>

Yes, I filed the IDOC. College board sends an e-mail to everybody who applied to an institution requiring it (these institutions typically require the CSS as well). Columbia and Harvard also required it.</p>

<p>ok so heres what it says on the Brown website</p>

<ol>
<li>Q. I was notified by the College Broard that Brown is a school that requires IDOC but it is not listed as one of my requirements on Brown’s self-service website. Why are you not requesting me to complete IDOC here at Brown?</li>
</ol>

<p>A. If no requirements appear as outstanding on self-service, we have all the necessary information to determine your financial aid eligibility at this time. Once the Office of Financial Aid reviews your initial application materials for financial aid which may include only the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) and/or the CSS Profile, we may be requesting additional information from you. The Office of Financial Aid and/or the Loan Office will notify you via email if additional information is needed. In this case, you wil be notified via email if additional information is needed.</p>

<p>and on there is nothing listed outstanding on my Brown self service.
i hope this is not a sign</p>

<p>DreamsAreReal: it’s normal to be anxious about your eventual decision. To lose sleep over minute matters that you have absolutely no control over is wasted energy and emotion. If you’re anywhere near a viable Brown applicant, then I’m sure you can better spend your remaining HS days than sweating over myths and rumors of the admissions process. When I was in your shoes, I was having the time of my life – college decisions be d***ed (it helped that I already had a UMich accept since October). I was cranking in my classes, going out (or at least asking) w/ all the girls I wanted to, having a blast w/my friends and making great memories. My “countdown” was to HS graduation, not Ivy notification day.</p>

<p>What they’ll decide has already been done. I refused to let that define me-- and I didn’t. Try to do the same. Many Brown applicants are going to be sad the evening of Mar 28. you might even be one of them. But so what? The sun will still rise on the 29th and you’ll 99.9% likely have a super successful college career at some other great place. This is a bad thing?</p>
