Northwestern Fall Transfer 2020

Accepted to Weinberg! Received an email around 5pm CST, submitted my application and all additional materials during the first weeks of April. The FA tab never appeared on my portal prior to the decision(though I applied for it).

Another week of waiting?..

My daughter submitted her common app on Jan 17. Some of the supporting paperwork didn’t make it there until right before Mar 15.

@porouscriminal Thank you so much – the best of luck to you too!! I’ve been seeing your posts in this thread for so long, I really think things will go well for you too especially since there seems to be a lot of acceptances this year. :slight_smile:

got an email saying my decision was ready at 6:15 eastern… i’m too scared to open it :frowning: this is my first decision out of 7 ahhhhh

still nothing 4 me

i stg

IM GONNA LOSE MY MARBLES

looking at last year’s thread, all applicants weren’t notified until after June 1st…

I’m not sure if I’m willing to take that chance, so i’m strongly considering committing to a school i’ve already been admitted to. i’m curious as to what the purpose of the staggered results is, seeing that people whose applications were complete in April received decisions in the first round, and others who submitted applications in February still haven’t heard back… alas.

congrats! My son got into uchicago also and northwestern too.

Got rejected.
I am so confused about this result. I wonder if I approach the essay in the wrong way. I think the PS essay prompt asks me about myself rather than my reasons for transferring?

@JasmineR I think either approach works. Some people submitted a regular non-transfer specific essay, and I just submitted my usual “why transfer” essay like for other schools too (although I described some of my personal background in it too, and I did submit extra materials like a gap year explanation). Sorry about your result though :frowning:

just got in!!! did not expect a decision today lol after so many weeks… now time to decide where I want to go omg

revived my decision at 6:15 edt

For those of you guys who have heard back,did you receive a email or something?I applied to Weinberg and still have nothing new. Am I just going to wait another week and get less chance to get in since so many CAS guys are accepted?

did any english majors hear back yet? also congratulations to everyone who got accepted!! so thrilled for you all!

i got in today and still have no received an email? a little bit confused about that

Does anyone know anything about housing? Can someone make a facebook page?

rejected :confused: sad boi hours

Congrats to everyone and if you didn’t get in, I wish you the best! If you don’t mind, can you share any stats? It would be really helpful!

I got in!! I’m so happy and CANNOT believe this just happened. CAS applicant, 4.0 GPA, Comparative Literature major, from a community college in Southern California! I started crying when I clicked on “view decision” on the portal and the first thing I saw was “Congratulations and welcome to Northwestern University!”

@teenybee Congrats!By the way when did u get the decision?
