early action....

<p>hey
for those of you who applied EA to northeastern do we really need to send first quarter grades? at this point, i feel like they can only hurt me.
i got these grades unweighted:
ap comp- 94
religion (ethics & law) -_-: 85 (my spiritual journal wasnt deep enough.........)
ap psych: 86
calc: 87
con-law: 90</p>

<p>:(</p>

<p>whattt do i doooo? im planning on bringing my grades up next quarter, but i dont want this to ruin my chance for northeastern :(</p>

<p>It says on the website that you should send them, but doesn’t your school do it automatically?</p>

<p>im not sure… i just emailed my college guidance counselor asking if she could not send them… if they are sent, do you think they’ll hurt me? i usually have it all above 90s and a 95 gpa. 31 act.</p>

<p>Everyone has bad moments. If everything else is strong, I don’t think it should be a major issue.</p>

<p>I’m pretty sure that you don’t send them…not for Early Action.
You send your mid year report.</p>

<p>I think they will require grades from at least one marking period before making a decision for EA. NU doesnt release decision on EA until Jan 1st. To not send any grades by then would look unusual.</p>

<p>I think they are strong enough to get you in.</p>

<p>No just will want your mid year report, which most HS, send automatically. By then EA decisions will be in.</p>

<p>I guess some haven’t checked the web site. For EA, 1st quarter grades are required.</p>

<p>^^That’s why it is best to check the official website instead of relying on guesses by some people on CC:
<a href=“Applying for Financial Aid | Undergraduate Admissions”>Applying for Financial Aid | Undergraduate Admissions;
“Secondary school transcripts including senior-year first quarter and midterm grades when available. If you have been out of high school for more than one year, you must send a current version up to date”</p>

<p>Has conflicting info, further down on page specific to EA says:
Early Action candidates should send their first-term grades as soon as they are available.</p>
