Northwestern Thread for Transfer Students

<p>i don't have classes yet :(</p>

<p>When's everyone making appt for advising?</p>

<p>you mean for those appts during NSW? are we supposed to make those yet?</p>

<p>woah what classes? did you already have your appointment or are you not in wcas?</p>

<p>im in wcas -- i visited campus a couple weeks ago and met with the dean and he just enrolled me in my classes this week. we were talking about this in the facebook transfer group too... apparently some schools deal with it differently, but for wcas its advised that you schedule an appt in person or at least on the phone with the dean (weimer, usually) to choose your classes so you get first pick before NSW.</p>

<p>yeah...and school of communication just tells u to do things urself after a little advising over the phone, and then ur adviser realizes that they did things TOTALLY WRONG...and now have to try to squeeze u into full classes. Yep. Go Northwestern. :(</p>

<p>boo for housing....why does it tease me so?
i hate waiting for stuff like this!!!!!!!!!!!!!</p>

<p>I'm in WCAS, I called in for advising several days ago and they said to call back right before school starts because she doesn't like assigning interview dates way before advance or something so you guys got plenty of time.</p>

<p>don'tcareforthis, that's so stupid, i'm sorry. i thought advisors had some pull for transfer students?</p>

<p>alykat, i'm in full agreement as always. it's killing me too. what do you think their time limit is on today?</p>

<p>i would assume 8pm at the latest bc thats about when some kid on the NU board posted that housing was up.....</p>

<p>Okay so I JUST got my schedule...and it isn't terrible. lol...so yeah. I'm not half as mad at my advisor as I thought I would be. <---that was kind of a tongue twister.</p>

<p>schedule? so you're already good to go? damn, that's fast.</p>

<p>i know! my advisor really got the ball rolling once I called and complained haha. i only have 3 classes right now, 2 of which are maybes...but at least I've secured my place!</p>

<p>haha so i realized that i've been checking this thread every couple hours to see if someone has said that housing is posted instead of actually looking at the northwestern site</p>

<p>it'll probably be at the end of the workday anyway</p>

</p>

<p>same with me haha</p>

<p>i'm just as bad--i actually called. they said they'd send an email around 5 their time, so i guess you're right about the end of the workday. it figures they decide to tell us the exact time i'm at a concert....</p>

<p>well it's up and i'm the one to tell everybody i guess :)</p>

<p>I got FOSTER HOUSE! I'm so *<strong><em>ED. That, of course, was my 5th choice. 8 X 10 single rooms with ALL GUYS...47 to be exact. WOW...this sounds like such a SOCIAL place. grrr I am so *</em></strong>ed. Do you think if I call, that they'll be able to change me? or should I stick it out?? I am so so mad.</p>

<p>Yay! what did you guys get?
I got Foster Walker which was my first choice and I'm pretty happy about it maybe minus the price tag.</p>

<p>dude you seem like NU's screwing you over with FA, housing and all that jazz.
I actually really wanted Foster walker, so I indicated on additional comments that I really wanted it but I don't know if that made any difference.</p>
