Northwestern transfer ROLLING basis?

<p>Hello,</p>

<p>I'm applying to Northwestern U and on the website it says that the deadline is May1 for the fall quarter transfers.<br>
But it also says that they will start making decisions on rolling basis after the deadline.<br>
Does this mean the earlier I turn in my application the better chance? </p>

<p>Thank you guys in advance~!</p>

<p>I am also applying to Northwestern as a transfer. </p>

<p>Northwestern will start mailing the decision after may 1st</p>

<p>bump</p>

<p>so does anybody know for sure whether you have a better chance by submitting early?</p>

<p>i know that Northwestern had an early decision for transfer, I think it was March First.</p>

<p>For transfer? There's nothing like that on the website.</p>

<p>For real? I thought there weren't early decision programs for transfers.</p>

<p>on one of the forms I am filling out it has that. Also, University of Chicago has Early Decision March 1 and Regular Decision, April 1rst.</p>

<p>No, transfers are required to use the online application, and there is no March 1 due date for anything on any of the pages. The supplementary forms all have May 1 as the due date for fall quarter with no mention of early decision. I think you might have gotten two universities' forms confused.</p>

<p>my northwestern ap was completed about a week or 2 ago, and it is due May 1, the reason why i got it done so early was b/c i want a decision before June,</p>

<p>bball,
what would going to northwestern do to improve your situation or to provide the things you find missing from cornell? not in a city, sat average not to your liking, accepts 35 percent of transfers (and freshman applicants) which by your reasoning means a less impressive degree, and it is all greek..</p>

<p>um, nw is not my first choice, it is simply an option, i got in last year, and i really like northwestern, and it is 20 mins from chicago, and evanston is gorgeous</p>

<p>btw, does the northwestern site have anybody else's stuff all listed as being filed yet? they're missing a lot of my stuff</p>

<p>yeah, they have everything of mine, except for my college transcript that i have sent at least 2 times already</p>

<p>Where is this indicated on the website?</p>

<p><a href="https://ugadm.northwestern.edu/application/%5B/url%5D"&gt;https://ugadm.northwestern.edu/application/&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p>

<p>edit: yeah, they haven't gotten my college transcript either (which I've sent in two or three times, the latest being two months ago), or one of my recs, but i think it's only been a week or two since the rec was mailed</p>

<p>in part1 of the application,
the very first part has something called 'application id'
and also the site above requires 'application id' to check status
but i have never received my 'application id'
i guess we are supposed to receive it before submitting the application since part1 of the application has it...<br>
anyone know about it?</p>

<p>thanks~!</p>

<p>they mail it to you after you start an application. if you don't have it, click on "forgot your code" and you can get them to email it to you.</p>

<p>does anyone know the answer to the original question?</p>
