<p>Hi, guys!
I got in JUB (round III of admission). As a student from non-EU country, I probably will not receive visa on time. So I’m considering to defer my enrollment.
Anyone else thinking about deferral?</p>
<p>can you explain how the deferral will work?
Yes, I am from non-EU country as well.</p>
<p>No you should not defer. try your best to get the visa. Even if you are 2 weeks late you will still be able to matriculate. </p>
<p>If NOTHING works out then get yourself deferred.</p>
<p>I asked the same question on the facebook page. Join the group. other JUB students gave me valuable suggestions.</p>

<p>Hellooo… I’m going to apply to JUB this fall…wondering if anyone could tell me about scholarship chances?? What is the typical scholarship recipient?</p>
<p>to get to Jacobs u need to get just above600 in every section?</p>
<p>I’m thinking about applying to JUB, but I wonder if Jacobs is reputable or not. Would you choose Karlsruhe, Delft or JUB in Europe?</p>
<p>Hey… I’m from Egypt, and I applied at Jacobs in September. I finished high school with a score of 405/410 (National Egyptian Secondary Examination). I’m a transfer student with a GPA 2.75 (But last two semesters I got between As and Bs only in my courses). The problem is that, I got 1770 in my SAT which was the first time for me to have it in my life, and I had only one month to study for it since I decided to apply. Anyway, I’m so worried about my admission especially for my SAT scores, and because I’m a transfer student, I’m also worried if I got in they might not REALLY aid me financially, especially that for sure I’ll get a small merit (if I do) for my scores. </p>
<p>Can someone please tell me what are my chances?</p>

<p>^You do card magic too? I do both card and coin. Nice</p>
<p>I know nothing about chances but looking at the admitted profiles, I think you have a decent chance. Your academics are strong and a 2100 (if you get it) is very good for JUB. Your ECs are unique. Also look at the top LACs in USA. They offer decent aid too.
Good luck :D</p>
<p>@karan>> yehh cardd magicc!!! nycee… btw is deyr professional magic instruction where u live??? neways im also starting on XCM bt i just need a deck of bicycle cards i cant find anythin of dat type here in Bangladesh…</p>

<p>Hey there!
I’m an international student who is currently studying in an American school in Turkey. Well I have pretty decent-horrible when compared to others- GPA (about 3.2/5.0 ). I’m going to study International Baccalaureate and also going to take the required tests to apply (Toefl and SAT). What would be my chances if I had good test scores and a good IB diploma-but decent GPA to apply JUB? It’s just too early to considering at this time for me but it would be great to let me know:) Thanks!</p>
<p>As a German I really ask myself why you want to study at that university. Is it just because of its English classes? There are around 20 better universities with international reputation in Germany. You should consider them too.</p>
<p>Anybody in Round II (2012/2013)??? Decisions should come up soon :)</p>
<p>I got in. Thank God!</p>
<p>Hi guys I got in too! I’m from Singapore if it makes any difference haha.</p>
