Northeastern Transfer Thread - Fall 2018

@blueocean3608 Same here, I need to put a deposit down on my safety school for May 1.

same! just curious if you guys are putting down your deposits for your safety schools or planning to wait on NEU. I’m nervous about losing money but also nervous about having nowhere to go to school next year

Also, anyone else apply as a Communication studies major and submitted a portfolio on slideroom? just wondering… good luck also I really hope we get some answers today or asap

@sunnyjjj I applied as a Journalism major and submitted a portfolio on SlideRoom. I put a lot of work into it too, which is another reason I will be upset if they wait until June to release decisions.

@sunnyjjj I’m definitely putting my deposit down. It’s only $300 (instead of $600 like a lot of other schools) for me because the school is 15-20 min from my house so I would just commute. I am waiting on 7 more schools but I’m scared I will be denied everywhere so I don’t want to take that chance.

@WordSmithNY When did you send in your app to NEU? I sent mine I think the beginning of March.

@hopeful112 i sent mine completely at the end of march

Does the business school send decisions the same day as the other schools?

@hopeful112 I sent mine in just before the deadline. I had never heard of NEU until I happened across an article that mentioned it.

@simonlee7 Everyone will receive decisions on the same day.

@WordSmithNY Did someone tell you that

They have never done that

Most schools don’t do that with transfers

@hopeful112 @pink418 I, as did someone else upthread, called the admissions office and was informed that they would not be releasing decisions in waves this year and that everyone would receive a decision at once between June 1st and June 15th. And a lot of schools do do that with transfers. Just depends on whether or not they have rolling admission usually.

@WordSmithNY Whatttt you’ve gotta be kidding me. June?

If an admissions director said most decisions will be released before June, then that’s probably what’s gonna happen. I doubt they’d wait that long.

Let’s hope for 4 PM today. I, for one, do not want to wait until June for a decision.

Not happening bud. Don’t waste getting your hopes up.

This is what I’m confused about. They said it wouldn’t be released until June 1, but someone else told me they called them and they said they wanted to release all the decisions by May 15

bruh, they’re rolling. decisions will be out by june 1 or 15. deposit deadlines are variable, obv if you get a decision the 15 you won’t have a deposit due that same day.

just wait, for literally EVERY school there is always miscommunication regarding the decisions. people are trained to respond one way to us asking about it.
