Northwestern University Fall 2018 Transfer Applicants

Well they do it, seemingly, every other week (based on last year as well), so, regretfully, I wouldn’t expect to hear back until May 9th; however, I would look out for next Wednesday just in case, since they tend to release on Wednesdays, if ever.

at least we survived the first two rounds :slight_smile:

Hooks: Not sure if this can be considered a hook - Debate Varsity, internationally competitive

wondering if we can get a decision this Wednesday

Has anybody seen from past threads if they do that?

It seems that most people who were accepted in 2013 started discussing housing in the 2nd week of June. I don’t know if that’s any indication of when people heard back.

Decisions out tomorrow 10AM CST?

@RivenLeeXD I think they release decisions every two weeks, but I hope they release some tomorrow.

I emailed the admissions office and they said decision releases will probably extend until the end of May, so I wouldn’t be surprised if they skip tomorrow and release the next wave a week after.

Anyone get anything?

Nah

Are we thinking some could be released later today or should we just plan on next week?

I’m thinking next week is probably what will happen

I called admissions and the lady on the phone said they’ll release decisions anywhere between now and end of may.

The wait is so agonizing that I almost don’t even care what the result will be and just want to know already.

@avocadough I feel ya

@avocadough that’s the point at I’m at too, haha! At this point I don’t really care what the decision is, I just want to know so I can move on and commit to one of my other schools!

Same here. I also applied to Cornell and still haven’t heard back. This now the fourth wave. Don’t care anymore.

@Paskuction I’m still waiting on Cornell too! I called them yesterday and they told me that decisions will be going out through mid to late June which is so frustrating. I just want to know at this point, don’t care what the decision is.

Just received an email, accepted to McCormick as a sophomore.
