Northwestern Fall Transfer 2020

@leaves7 i did too. i have not heard back yet

ahhh now I’m really worried that an actual rejection-heavy wave is gonna be coming up and I’ll be part of it

Why do you think it’s rejection heavy? @CHVRCHES

Accepted into school of communications.
HS GPA: 4.8
ACT 33
College GPA 4.0
From: Temple University
University honors and Fox honors

Do you guys think this wave was particularly acceptance-heavy or balanced?

Accepted to SoC! So grateful right now!

To anyone who didn’t get it: your right school is out there waiting for you. I know how much this stings.

Good luck to anyone waiting to hear!

I don’t feel comfortable posting my stats on a public thread, but feel free to PM me and I can provide you them:)

@cusnew I just mean that in the past, they obviously had the first wave of mostly rejections but now it seems to be a mix of both. I’m just (probably unreasonably) paranoid that they’ll still end up with a wave of mostly rejections this cycle too for those who haven’t heard back yet lol.

Balanced or rejection-heavy for round 1. Much more likely someone would post an acceptance than a rejection, and since it seems like a split decision on here, I am assuming more rejections than acceptances in round 1.

So why would the next wave be rejection heavy then?

@cusnew Literally just me being nervous haha my worries aren’t backed up by any evidence at all

@CHVRCHES I’m really worried too. I’m really shocked I wasn’t in the first wave. I felt like I got everything in asap. I wonder if they’ve even looked at our files.

Do you guys think they’re going by school? The decisions seemed to me like they were coming from all of them.

@cusnew Same, one of my documents was received by them a tiny bit late (4/7) but everything else was in around the time of the first deadline. Let’s just try to think rationally though-- there were still quite a few rejections in this round, so it’s probably not like they’re just purposely singling us out and hopefully timing doesn’t mean too much.

accepted to mccormick engineering. good luck to everyone

Accepted in CAS Econ! Did anyone receive a financial aid award yet?

Hey, sorry to ask, but mind if I ask for your stats. I also applied for Econ, but I haven’t heard back yet.

i applied to weinberg/bienen double degree program. didn’t hear anything back today… i really hope they don’t take two weeks for the next wave

If we didn’t receive a decision today, how long do you think we have to wait?

@leafygreens did you apply for aid?

@cusnew yes, I did apply for aid.
