<p>If you applied Early Decision does Emory request your first quarter grades?</p>
<p>I called and they say they require 1st quarter grades. I recently sent my 1st quarter grades on my own so I assume that will suffice.</p>
<p>Are you sure? It says nowhere on their website that they require them or even request them.</p>
<p>By first quarter, do you mean first semester?</p>
<p>No, the first semester is the first half of the year (which would be around the end of January). This would be long after I would find out if I am accepted and thus irrelevent. So yeah, first quarter.</p>
<p>lmmillz - Yeah I know it doesn’t say on the website. Thus I was a bit surprised that the person on the phone said they were required. If your grades are good, you should definitely send them (are they good)? </p>
<p>Emory may contact your guidance counselor without notifying you and ask them to send your first quarter grades.</p>
<p>Yeah, my grades were really good this quarter (thank god). Anyway, I’m not really sure how they plan on using the first quarter grades considering it is taking them between 2 and 3 weeks to log stuff you send into the system. A little over 3 weeks from now we should be hearing if we got in or not. I just emailed admissions so I’ll see what they tell me.</p>
<p>Thanks for the help.</p>
<p>My school only lists semester grades on my transcript. Do either of you have a similar issue?</p>
<p>I emailed admissions and they said they will contact the school directly if they need my grades and only request grades from some people.</p>
<p>Oh - but lmillz if your grades are good then you should send them. I did. why not?</p>
<p>My guidance counselor seems to think they would be annoying with getting excessive paperwork with all the stuff they already have, especially stuff they dont want. Plus, I don’t think it will make a difference.</p>
