MIT Transfer - Fall 2011!

<p>MITChris - now that we’re into the last week or two of waiting for transfer decisions, is there going to be an announcement of the date when transfer decisions are coming out, or will they mysteriously appear in our inboxes?</p>

<p>The notifications will most likely appear in our email. This happened last year.</p>

<p>Did anyone get the decision?</p>

<p>No, and the transfer admissions folks replied when I asked if they had a date that they would not be pre-announcing the date when they would be sent out.</p>

<p>it’ll likely be in the next few weeks</p>

<p>is it going to be this week?</p>

<p>I’m sooo nervous… I need an answer!
I’m actually checking my email every minute… hahaha
:P</p>

<p>I’m sooo nervous too, I’m actually checking my inbox every 20 seconds!</p>

<p>I’m nervous/jittery too :confused: - but my expectation was set on “some time this week or next week or maybe even week after” based on MITChris’s comment.</p>

<p>You think it won’t be in “Early” April?</p>

<p>I sent an email asking about the date…</p>

<p>And they anserwed : “We do not have an exact date at this time.”</p>

<p>I also asked if they would send the results in this week or maybe next week, but they didn’t anserewed me.</p>

<p>As much as I would like for it to be today (the quarterly deadline for a fellowship I’d apply for if admitted is today, with the next review cycle sometime in July), the reality is probably that they got an unusually high number of applications and needed longer to review them than they did last year. My guess based on absolutely no information is late next week or early the week after, and I’ll be pleasantly surprised if the suspense ends sooner.</p>

<p>Hi Everyone,</p>

<p>This is Muhammad ALI from Pakistan. I have also applied for transfer to MIT but I am all alone in this matter. I had no one to guide me on how to apply but I did it somehow. I would like you people, if someone is willing, to keep me informed about what to do. I would really really appreciate it. Thanks in Advance. (<a href="mailto:ali_cmi@yahoo.com">ali_cmi@yahoo.com</a>) </p>

<p>I hope everyone who has applied has high expectations. BEST OF LUCK-ALL. May the blessing be upon you. </p>

<p>MIT, you are a dream and dreams never die. :)</p>

<p>Peace.</p>

<p>Its me again… Finally in a group of people with similar expectations. :)</p>

<p>Guys and girls, you must have done the best of yours to apply at MIT. It really is an awesome experience even to apply. Everyone here must have a high GPA and mind blowing SAT scores. I hope I stand among you in the race. </p>

<p>The thing I never faced before in going through the application process was the disagreement of my closest relations on doing it. Man, it was probably the most excruciating experience I ever had when my own were not supporting me. But I took a stand to apply, just to fulfill my desire and to avoid a feeling of incompetency and regret that I did not apply when I could have.</p>

<p>It may be a Yes or No, I will be happy considering the passion I HAD applied. Although i consider admission+financial aid a miracle, it still has some chance, say 0.00000001% in my mind. Hehe…</p>

<p>GOD bless you all.</p>

<p>Good luck Brother.</p>

<p>0.00000001% of possibility? Man you are pessimistic optimist :)))</p>

<p>While I wish all of the applicants best of the luck, I believe the deserving guys will win!</p>

Thanks bro</p>

<p>Bro, its kinda complex. I am on one hand pretty confident spiritually but on the other hand, which is of physical world, quite dubious. Not everyone comes from a family with fortunes and same is the case with me. </p>

<p>Admission in MIT, its 50% Success. A’right, make it 51%, its a big thing. hehe…
But,
finance matters. 52,000 dollars a year! My family could’ve supported me if it wasn’t dollars. In my country, $1.00=Rs.86.00. Do the math, its a big figure. (4.472 Million Rupees!!!)</p>

<p>So, it’ll be a miracle indeed if I get admission and get some supporting amount of scholarship. The rest of the things, I stand among good people. :)</p>

<p>Now your statement is justified. I am an pessimistic optimist. :smiley: (Nice one, by the way)</p>

<p>Peace.</p>

<p>Good luck everyone. Anyone received any email?</p>

<p>Not as of yet. I’m tempted to redirect anything from <a href=“mailto:mittransfer@mit.edu”>mittransfer@mit.edu</a> to my pager so that I don’t end up obsessing over checking my personal mail every 5 minutes.</p>

<p>The anxiety over waiting is eating me :/</p>

<p>I feel the same, Elizabeth!</p>
