hey, is anyone applying to Middlebury as a transfer for the fall of 2018?
Hi! I’m heavily considering transferring from Northeastern for Fall 2018, and I’m applying to Middlebury as one of my top choices!
How is the process going for you?
@ajordanl I am still going through the process, writing a separate personal essay and waiting to submit my application. My SAT score wasn’t the best, but I hope that won’t affect my chance
@mishk90 Best of luck to you! I’m primarily focused on my current college grades and showing demonstrated interest. Definitely try scheduling a visit if you can.
@ajordanl thank you very much- right now I’m doing the same. Ugh it’s stressful but hopefully all goes well
How’s the process going ?
@ajordanl what’s your reason for transferring from Noetheastern?
hey guys, how’s everyone’s application process going?
@Dontskipthemoose I wasn’t too keen on the city setting after my fall semester as well as the size of the school. The CS department was spread a bit too thin for my liking, and I’d prefer to have smaller, more intimate classes and more contact with professors.
@mishk90 It’s difficult to keep up with the current college academic and club workload in addition to the application process. Digging into forums about transferring to Midd gets disheartening at times when I’m feeling worried about the odds, but otherwise it’s going fine! My biggest worry at this point is getting the essay just right, but hopefully things work out.
I recently visited the campus a second time and took a tour, and have been gathering transfer materials. How have things been going for you?
@ajordanl this is what I say, no stress just bless. I dropped one of my classes at my school because it was too much stress on me and schools want to see a good GPA not just the amount of credits. People can have a huge number of credits and still have a crappy gpa- I don’t want to risk anything
@mishk90 you make a good point! i’ve made it so far, so I’m trying to hang on for the rest of the semester. It’s a lot of work, so I hope it pays off.
you got this, we all do.
@mishk90 application submitted, fingers crossed!
have you received an acknowledgement email from Midd yet?
@ajordanl yes, I did it a while ago. Just waiting for my midterm report to be filled out so I can send it off. My SAT scores were complete craaaaaaap, so nervous but feeling blessed haha
@mishk90 we got this! I’m nervous too but definitely feeling blessed right now to be mostly done.
How long did it take for your acknowledgment email to arrive? I’m just worried about mine coming in time so I can submit my course descriptions.
@ajordanl I got it within a few days, and just uploaded my course description a few days ago, it doesn’t take long
@mishk90 I followed the Midd transfer timeline and submitted my Common App yesterday. Do you think they’ll consider my application as late since I wont be able to access my student portal until the email arrives?
@ajordanl nope, you will be fine, you did it yesterday, you’ll be good don’t worry about it
Decisions are this Friday after 3:00 pm. Good luck everyone!
