<p>I agree with fontaine, I’ll either be too excited or too disappointed–as I’m sure most people will be, to fill out the stats form that’s currently in the thread, much less the longer one</p>
<p>Okay…that’s fine
I wish everyone good luck!! We have less than 11 hours to go (I’m so scared).</p>
<p>You could fill it out while you’re waiting… :)</p>
<p>10 hours 15 minutes!</p>
<p>Good luck every one! 6 hours to go!!</p>
<p>I’m just wondering, if I’m taking the Janurary SAT, do I have to list it somewhere on the MIT application form?</p>
<p>I’m scared that if I list it and do not do the Jan SAT (if I’m sick or I cancel), my application will get left in the uncompleted section… Can anyone confirm if this happens or not?</p>
<p>Can anyone tell me what happens if I dont’ list the Jan SAT on the application form and send the scores anyway?</p>
<p>It’s a good idea to let MIT know that the January SAT score will be on the way, since the scores come out rather late in the application reading process.</p>
<p>But it would be fine to list/send your previous scores and add a note on the application that your January scores will be arriving, then update MIT if you don’t end up taking the January SAT.</p>
<p>If my freshman year was in a non-US system so do I report them on the app?</p>
<p>My dream school is MIT. It’s too awesome. But what are my chances eh? :P</p>
<p>Bump for my question:</p>
<p>If my freshman year was in a non-US system so do I report them on the app? </p>
<p>Oh wait, this is stickied…</p>
<p>I don’t know if these have been asked already but:
- If I took a summer class, do I put it as during the year before or year after?
- Is government a social science or additional class?
- If I already had my interview, under the “Interview” section on pg. 8, would I just need to indicate my EC’s N
ame and date of interview, or would I still need to check a below option?
I’d really appreciate it if somebody could help me. Thanks!</p>
<p>As for 1 or 2, there is no official answer. You can do it in whichever way you like. The admissions people will figure it out just fine.</p>
<p>As for three, you can just list the name/date. They’ll have your interview on file elsewhere in the application anyway.</p>
<p>^^^Ok, thanks.</p>
<p>I am an U.S citizen living aboard. I want to apply ED to MIT but will I be considered as an “international student”?</p>
<p>In the MIT freshman admissions process, you are considered an international applicant if you are not a citizen or a permanent resident (Green Card holder) of the United States. (Please note that if you have already entered university you must apply to MIT as a transfer student.)</p>
<p>from [MIT</a> Admissions: International Applicants: Helpful Tips](<a href=“http://www.mitadmissions.org/topics/apply/international_applicants_helpful_tips/index.shtml]MIT”>http://www.mitadmissions.org/topics/apply/international_applicants_helpful_tips/index.shtml)</p>
<p>If you’re a U.S. citizen, no matter where you live, you’re considered a domestic applicant.</p>
<p>Also, MIT has an early action (EA) program, but no early decision (ED) program.</p>
<p>MIT’s early program is non-restrictive and non-binding – you may apply to other schools early if their policies allow it, and if you are admitted, you are not required to attend.</p>
<p>@cgaricia: thank you!
@molliebatmit Sorry for the confusion. I typed my question wrong because I was in a hurry.</p>
<p>I have another question. When MIT considers my application, will the fact that I am an citizen living abroad be taken into account. The thing is, the amount of extracurricular activities available in the schools of the country where i currently live in is considerably less than that of schools in the states. </p>
<p>Thanks. =)</p>
<p>No problem – just wanted to make sure you were clear on that point. Many people don’t know the difference between EA and ED.</p>
<p>MIT will absolutely take your high school situation into account when considering your application. They’re familiar with a wide range of high schools around the world, and they’re aware that extracurricular opportunities are not the same everywhere.</p>
<p>Hi everyone, I have a quick question. It seems that one of my teacher recommendations either got lost in the mail, in the guidance office, or on my teacher’s desk. Whatever the case, it should have been processed by now. Should I wait until the 18th to fax a new copy (my teacher is willing to re-do it), as advised on the mit website dealing with missing materials, or should I send it in right away? Also, should I or the guidance include a brief explanation?
Thanks!</p>
<p>It’s possible that your recommendation actually is at MIT, but hasn’t been entered into the system yet.</p>
<p>There’s no need to re-send the recommendation until the 18th, and there’s no need to include an explanation if you do need to re-send it. It won’t cause a problem – MIT sees lots of cases like this every year.</p>
<p>May the deferred candidates send in their updates now, or must they wait for the mid-year school report? Please advise.</p>
