Further Review Required

<p>Okay so it’s been two weeks exactly since they got my mid-year report and about three since they changed my application to Further Review Required… Does it normally take this long or should I call them tomorrow?</p>

<p>Call, just for peace of mind.</p>

<p>Okay I just tried to call but they had me on hold for seventeen minutes… so I just hung up.</p>

<p>aghhh it says they received my midyear grades on February 22 and it still says furthur review required…I have a 2400 on my SATs and a 4.1 weighted GPA. Does anyone have any guess of when they’ll make a decision for me?</p>

<p>yea i called in… basically they do not change it back to “ready for review.” </p>

<p>They get through everyone they had with ready for review and then come back to the further review required people.</p>

<p>so it looks like we will be waiting a while.</p>

<p>Ah okay. Thanks for the info ambush276.</p>

<p>has anyone with “Further review required” gotten a decision?</p>

<p>Nope, but my mid-year and predicted grades just got sent in last week. I’m a bit worried because on the website it says international students get decisions around mid may, which is ridiculous. Have any non-US international students gotten a decision yet? merci</p>

<p>All applications with no mid-year report are identified this way… unless you have really high grades, test scores and come from a trimester school.</p>

<p>right but we are asking when they will be evaluated? b/c for US schools it needs to be by April 1st correct?</p>

<p>and decisions have to be made by May 1st?</p>

<p>My status changed from ready for review to recommended by department to further review required. and they dont have anything missing in their application checklist!!!
Im so freaked, is that a no?</p>

<p>Andrewheat im in australia, where i graduated in december and they asked for the exact same. I just sent them a letter telling them what i had been doing with myself up until then, as well as what i would continue to do until university started.
so basically just any volunteer work, jobs, studying, tutoring, sports.</p>

<p>It is not entirely related to the Faculty of science but I also had a pretty bad first year (illness, family issue and bad preparation) during my freshman. however I am at another university right now and I have a good gpa based on the marks I got this year. Should I write the admissions office a letter about this? Or they would see the progress in my transcripts? (Started 2.4 GPA (yes I know I know. I had to stop the semester after midterms so I couldn’t drop off my courses) to a 3,5 GPA (and this semester I expect my GPA to be 3,7) I don’t want to enter the Faculty of Science but the Faculty of Arts.</p>
