Northwestern Fall 2011 Transfer Thread

<p>I will be attending as a rising sophomore</p>

<p>What were your stats boss?</p>

<p>he posted his stats a few replies back.</p>

<p>thaboss, what was your HS gpa? and are you from the chicagoland area?</p>

<p>I’m quite surprised that NU accepted a rising sophomore applicant without evaluating a final transcript. :slight_smile: Hope they’ll do same thing to those of us who are in schools running quarter system</p>

<p>I’m feeling like I’m going to be waitlisted.</p>

<p>does NU send out decisions via letters or emails?</p>

<p>^Letters only. No indication of releasing decisions online…
But this is also the first time I have heard of the differences of delivery methods of decisions…</p>

<p>@jayfromla: Does NU waitlist some transfer applicants? I thought that once they evaluate your application, they decide yes or no…</p>

<p>I’m not sure. I know most other schools waitlist applicants, and given how many people will probably be left unable to attend due to NU’s late decision releases, I would imagine that they would have some sort of waitlist in place to ensure a full enrollment.</p>

<p>has anyone heard any news today?</p>

<p>The suspense is killing me! I wan’t to know so bad and my mailman probably thinks I’m insane :(</p>

<p>I don’t think NU waitlists transfers.</p>

<p>Rejected but not too surprised. Should have stayed at my first school if I wanted to transfer to NU. Not CC friendly at all.</p>

<p>When did u hear?</p>

<p>The letter came in the mail on June 3rd.</p>

<p>^DreamingBig you got into some other top schools right?</p>

<p>^ I was accepted into UVA and UNC. </p>

<p>Good luck to everyone else. :)</p>

<p>Is it worth it to call the office and see if they can do anything to rush my decision? I need to know for another school by Friday!</p>

<p>Eh, if you’re really desperate, I noticed last year’s students were able to find out via phone whether or not a decision had been made (just not the decision). Working from that, if they have made a decision, you could call FedEx and see if they have a package for you. If not–chances are, it’s a rejection. This is kind of a long, roundabout way of deduction, but seems to be how some did it in the past.</p>

<p>I… will not be joining in on the crazy.</p>
