Northeastern Transfers Fall 2016

So I noticed there was no official forum for NEU transfer applicants for this fall. Hoping this can be a place to hear when others get admissions decisions/stats etc! I’ll start with my stats and stuff…

Currently attending a community college
Applied to D’Amore McKim for International Business/French
Cumulative GPA: 3.82 (not including this semester)
Member of PTK
In my third semester, started college when I was 16 (tested out of high school)
Won a California statewide award for Youth and Government, work, community service, etc

Also, I’ve already been accepted to Tulane University and University of San Francisco with merit scholarships to both!
I’m so anxious to hear back, Northeastern has always been my dream school. No way I can wait until JUNE 15th!!

I’m currently a sophomore at the University of Arizona Honors college and I’m looking to transfer in the fall! I’m from Massachusetts so it would be much more convenient to go here.

As of right now I have a 3.391 gpa. I’m taking 14 credits this semester, 8 of which are A’s, 6 are B’s.
I am a global studies major with an emphasis in the arts, literature, and film.
I’m currently a photography intern at Porter House Media, run by DJ Steve Porter.
I also am taking senior portraits of students around campus, independently and on my own time. I have had 24 clients so far.
I’m an active member in J-Street U and attended a national assembly in DC last week.
I was a lifeguard my junior and senior year of high school at both the YMCA and Six Flags.
I also have dyslexia and will apply to their well known learning disabilities program.

I’m applying to the college of Art, Media and Design. I’m hoping to major in Media and Screens and minor in film studies. Do you think I have a good chance? I’m so anxious to hear back. I want to go here so bad!

Hey, thanks for making this thread!

Glad to see fellow transfer-hopefuls.

Applied to transfer into D’Amore McKim for Accounting from a small southern LAC. Northeastern is definitely my number one!

GPA: 3.75
ACT: 35

Applying as a first-year student for sophomore year.

Not many ECs so far in college, but participated in quite a few in high school. I’ve done 13 AP exams and have pushed myself with the hardest classes available to me both at my current university and in high school.

Again, thanks for getting this thread going and good luck, friends!

Can’t wait to hear back!

Hey, guys! I’m currently a freshman at Syracuse University. I applied and was recently accepted to NEU for Communication Studies.

ECs: Fashion major, part-time job, internship at marketing company

College:

They completed my application last week on April 26 and received my decision on April 29th.
If you guys have any questions feel free to message me!

Heyo everyone! I’m currently a freshman at Bridgewater State University. I applied to NEU is my first choice for transferring. I live near Boston so it’s convenient for me, but that’s not the main reason why I applied. Northeastern has an animation program I’m interested in, but it also has a biology program I’m interested in.

-The cumulative GPA I expect to have by the end of my second semester at Bridgewater if my finals go smoothly is 3.76.
-I am an art and biology double major.
-I applied as a biology major for NEU, but I plan to change it to a biology major with an animation minor and a game art minor, or a biology major and a media arts major with a concentration in animation. I’m still trying to figure out my balance between art and science.

-I was an undergraduate research assistant for research in ecology.
-I do art commissions on my spare time. I draw digital art for people who are interesting in buying my art.
-Did D3 track and field for the first semester of my college career.
-Joined my school’s Anime Club
-Joined my school’s Smash Bros. Club.
-Joined a small co-ed fraternity at my school.

-Was vice president of Art Club in high school.
-Did orchestra in high school.
-Did track and cross country in high school.
-Didn’t have many other ECs in high school.

June 15th seems so far away. I can’t wait to hear back from Northeastern!

Can’t wait to hear from the admissions office!

has anyone heard back?

@mtbd1996 I haven’t. I’m going crazy…they seem really inefficient with this whole thing

@mtbd1996 Yes! I heard back at the end of April. I was accepted!

@gracetheodore I hope you got a response now! I’m sorry hey took long!
@h0s0f1996 yay! Me too! I’m going too :slight_smile: hope to see y’all there

Anyone else still waiting, or just me?

@bphizzla still haven’t heard, but committed somewhere else. making students wait this long is cruel!

Still waiting - I submitted the application at the end of April - emailed them to see when I might hear and got “we will inform all applicants by June 15th” since other people heard back right away should I assume I didn’t get in. applied for entry into the business school?

@mtbd1996 Hi i was wondering if you got in, I am also a transfer student with similar stats.

she did get in as per her other posts
