<p>I recommend that you do not wait until you actually receive your TOEFL scores to send them to MIT.</p>
<p>My TOEFL scores took about 2 months to arrive and be proccessed at MIT.</p>
<p>If you can, include MIT as one of the receipents, then it would reach MIT probably in January or early February.</p>
<p>If you report them on a later date, in my experience, it may take all the way to March :S</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>can anyone answer this and my question too please ??</p>
<p>There is no minimum score (neither for admittance nor language proficiency) for SAT/ACT. I guess when a non-natural english speaker submites solely SAT/ACT, it is left for the intrepretation of the reader/committee in regards to your applicant generally.</p>
<p>With a 550/590 in CR/W, I believe you can easily pass the 90 points mark at TOEFL iBT, so I say go for it if you can.</p>
<p>550 CR isn’t a great score but for language proficiency, I believe it would be alright however you really should support it with TOEFL or some other resources as 550 is below the admitted range. There is no cutoff point but, statisticly speaking, it would be even tougher.</p>
<p>S applied (EA deferred) listing AP Scholar as one of his honors. Turns out College Board just revised his standing (their error) to AP Scholar with Honors. Should he update his MIT app or does it not matter?</p>
<p>^ I guess if there’s space on the midyear report you could include it? But I can’t imagine the “with Honors” is going to make the difference in terms of admissions</p>
<p>I Just learned that I am an STS semifinalist. Do I send this as an update to the admissions office now, or should it wait for the midyear report?</p>
<p>I really can’t find the Supplemental Document Cover Sheet. Can anyone tell me how to get there once I’m on my MyMIT?</p>
<p>Once you sign in, on the left in the box there should be something labeled “required documents” or “application materials” (I’m mobile, can’t check sorry).</p>
<p>I need the supplemental document cover sheet as well. It is not available on MyMIT. I have already had a person write an additional letter, but I cannot send it in. MITChris or anyone else who can help please reply. In addition if someone has saved the document please let me know.</p>
<p>I have a copy of it saved, but it has my application information at the top. I could blank it out and send it to you, but there must be an easier way. Let me know if you decide to try that out.</p>
<p>Hi,</p>
<p>May I know if the admission office is still sorting out the transcripts? I checked my myMIT account for the past few days and I am still not getting the tick. I asked my school counselors and they said they have sent it out a long time ago (by mail).</p>
<p>MIT Admissions has not put up a blog post yet about having everything processed, so you shouldn’t be worried right now.</p>
<p>I’ll try to make this as concise as possible -
<p>Thanks for reading this! I’m sorry it was so long! Any feedback at all is appreciated.</p>
<p>I almost forgot, one last question - For those of you who are at MIT or have attended - how would you rank the food on a scale of inedible to orgasmic. (Because 1 to 10 is unreliable) Be sincere too because I doubt it’s truly inedible or that food induced orgasms are the norm in the caf at MIT. I ask simply as a food lover, not as an applicant.</p>

The ski team is a club team – there are several categories of sports at MIT, from NCAA-recognized varsity sports, to club sports, to intramural sports. The ski team is a club sport, meaning that they compete with other schools but aren’t NCAA-recognized (or heavily MIT-supported in terms of finances and infrastructure). Club sports don’t recruit.</p>
<p>
No, there’s no need to explain. Not sending the tribal enrollment number will serve as explanation enough.</p>
<p>
Nope, no worries – MIT hasn’t finished sorting and processing all the mail yet. You should watch for a blog entry by Matt or Chris saying they’re done sorting the mail – if your letter still isn’t showing up as processed by that point, you’ll be given instructions on how best to have your teacher resubmit it. It’s likely that your letter really is at MIT, waiting patiently to be matched to your application, but things do get lost sometimes, and it’s not a big deal.</p>
<p>
It doesn’t matter what you submit – MIT will only use the scores that put you in the best light. So if you submit the previous scores, then improve on the January test, they will only use the January test in their evaluation. There’s nothing to lose by submitting the November scores (or other scores you may have), but you don’t have to submit them if you don’t want to.</p>
<p>
There are a lot of different options at MIT, from dining halls to actual restaurants to cafeterias to grocery stores, so it’s tough to assign a monolithic rating to the food as a whole. If you’re a food lover, you might consider choosing a dorm with kitchens and cooking for yourself – it’s not uncommon for groups of friends to form dinner collectives and rotate cooking responsibilities.</p>
<p>Thanks for taking the time to respond!
I just want to elaborate on my second question. You said that not sending the tribal enrollment will be enough, and I just want to make sure it’s understood that I am just not enrolled and that I’m actually of Native American descent. Should I provide documentation to prove my heritage or will they understand that not every Native family decides to enroll.</p>

Hi, I saw this question a page or so ago and also in a separate thread, but it wasn’t answered definitively. Do you know where the supplemental document cover sheet is for freshman applicants?</p>
<p>I am an international applicant and have a question about TOEFL IBT.</p>
<p>the TOEFL score is only missing in my application. I took TOEFL IBT test 2 times.
In my first time, I earned good scores on reading and writing but not good scores on listening and speaking
In my second time which was JAN 14 2012, I hope I would earn good scores on listening and speaking but not good scores on reading and writing.</p>
<p>If I send my these 2 TOEFL IBT scores, will admission concern highest section scores across test dates? or use one of them and ignore other?</p>
<p>I got my toefl result back last night, but I can’t seem to tell if MIT received it as well or not. The application tracking details link seemse to be missing from my dashboard too…so…?</p>
<p>I have a question about the Mid-Year Report. </p>
<p>Can I also add past summer activities that I didn’t mention in my application,
or does MIT only want to see the new things I’ve done (which isn’t a lot)?</p>
<p>Adding these summer activities would make a slight difference for me
because they’re community-oriented activities that aren’t as academic as the
rest of my application. So should I add summer activities or no?</p>
<p>molliebatmit, does the 250-word limit on the MYR apply to essays? If I’m sending an essay that’s ~500 words, is it best to e-mail, post a link to a Google Doc, or…? Thanks in advance!</p>
