Northeastern Transfer Thread - Fall 2018

What do you guys think the average gpa and acceptance rate would be for accepted students this year

I’m a 3.3 GPA student but I run a business that’s doing 6 figures in sales. I am applying to the business school. Will I get in?

@darkhound173 what makes you think someone is gonna be able to accurately tell you you’re getting in or not with such limited information? nobody can chance you. admissions is arbitrary

@simonlee7 don’t quote me, but i believe the acceptance rate for transfers is somewhere around 38-40%. As far as average GPA i’m really unsure.

Did anyone else here take advantage of the portal & write an additional writing supplement ? I called before i submitted my app and asked if that was acceptable, and the admissions counselor I spoke to seemed very enthusiastic about the idea. Sorry i’m sharing that now rather than earlier, I wasn’t an active member on this thread until a week or so ago!

@darkhound173 I’m curious, what kind of business?

I run a marketing firm. It is also partnered with a sillicon valley web design/SEO startup.

Are we expecting the first wave this Friday?

no

@msport @Boroboro Yes we are

If you check 17-18 Common Data Set, it says 920 transfer student accepted out of 3519 students. That equals %26. However, on 16-17 Common Data Set, 1298 transfer students accepted out of 3320 students which equials %39. It shows getting into NEU will be tougher for us. I have no idea about profile of admitted transfer students. Also, when did people hear about their decisions previous year? Good luck all.

Anybody know what time decisions usually come out if the first wave is coming out (hopefully) tomorrow

@aabbccddz the first person who mentioned getting accepted in last year’s thread was at 4pm

Best of luck, everybody. I doubt you’ll need it though.

My portal cant be accessed again

Decisions expected to come out 4PM ET right?

@darkhound173 according to last years thread, yes

@Boroboro i can access mine

@t0pnotch same. Mine has never gone down that I’ve seen

I haven’t seen mine go down either, but I’ve always checked long after everyone mentions it. Hopefully its just another two hours guys, good luck to everyone!
