<p>I need help! I just submitted my transfer app to Brown today and realized that I forgot to sign the last page (section 3 personal statement). I'm planning on calling the admission office tomorrow and asking them what to do... Has this ever happened to anyone else here? I hope I don't have to rewrite all of those hand written essays of mine! And I doubly hope that this will not reflect poorly on my application as a whole. Please, somebody, tell me your thoughts!</p>
<p>How did you just finish your Brown transfer app when it's not even available until the end of January?</p>
<p>I was JUST going to ask that. Yeah...I think you may have done the Freshman application, dude.</p>
<p>The online application isn't available until January...if you request a paper one they will send it to you in the mail now.</p>
<p>Haha that would suuuuuuuuck.</p>
<p>Edit: latitude, I requested one from them back in November and haven't gotten it...</p>
<p>you can request a paper application here: <a href="http://www.brown.edu/Administration/Admission/applyingtobrown/transferstudents.html%5B/url%5D">http://www.brown.edu/Administration/Admission/applyingtobrown/transferstudents.html</a></p>
<p>you can also download the pdf files here:<a href="http://www.brown.edu/Administration/Admission/appforms/Transfer/%5B/url%5D">http://www.brown.edu/Administration/Admission/appforms/Transfer/</a></p>
<p>the first site listed says the transfer application will be available in late January, but the files have been available to download for some time.</p>
<p>Do you guys think I still stand a chance? My application was perfectly done, with strong essays, e.c's, letters of rec, and 3.9 GPA at UW-Madison.</p>
<p>I love you....</p>
<p>You are god. Thank you. Sorry for the smart assing.</p>
<p>On the second site I listed (the one where you can download the transfer app PDF's) it says "Updated January 13, 2006", but I have noticed that Brown has used the same application for several years now, so I think the PDF's are still valid.</p>
<p>I can't get myself to start until I login w/ a username/password for the online app :P</p>
<p>lostincode: me too. But it's nice to see what all essays the need.</p>
<p>why do u want to transfer from madison? thats a really good school. Actually, thats one of the only schools i would compare to berkeley in quality.</p>
<p>not UVa or Michigan?</p>
<p>Madison is a good school, but it's not right for me. It's a very very large school, with probably the most pervasive party atmosphere in the country. Lectures are huge and foreign TA's who speak poor English teach almost all intro courses (as well as many upper-level courses). It's GER program is also too controlling in my regard.</p>
<p>Mw86d, I think you should call their office and explain.</p>
<p>Out of curiosity, what year are you in?</p>
<p>good luck.</p>
<p>i will be a first semester junior when i enroll in fall 2007</p>
<p>pellman: Internationally speaking, UVA is not as recognizable as UCberk or Wisconsin. The size of Wisc and Berk are somewhat similar, as well (above 25 thousand) and Wisc and Berk are #1 and #2 for sociology.</p>
