@stressedout18 I did fill in the extracurricular activities’ form and uploaded the CV too. Uploading the CV was optional. As only 10 activities can be mentioned in the form, I chose to upload the CV. If, in your case, the form was enough, then it is okay if you didn’t upload the CV.
Does anybody know when we hear ND’s decisions? I’m eager to see whether or not I got in!
@bfc2017 they said they’re mailing them out by march 14th, but last year my friend found out on the portal before she even got the physical paper so i’m assuming around that week
Just got my PSAT score- 1370
How much do you think this will actually hold effect over my grades/extra curriculars ?
also, did anyone else apply for summer scholars too?
Thanks, @jess1911 ! Is there a deadline for letting them know if you will actually be attending the program? I don’t hear back from a separate program until April 30th, and I’d like to know all of my options before making a decision.
Did anyone else get an email for an updated transcript?
@stressedout18 Did you send old transcripts?
@stressedout18 I didn’t since I waited to submit my application until my first semester grades were available, but in previous threads it looks like they requested first semester grades for most people.
@kitkat231 @11kysta okay just checking! the application was due just before my semester grades were ready.
@stressedout18 I just emailed them my first semester transcript and they happily accepted it, if you think your new grades will enhance your app you should too
@stressedout18 Did you get an email? When? What did it say? thanks
if you submitted your transcript/grade report from the previous year will they definitely ask for your mid year report
Anyone going for the Science ethics and responsibility program? My stats are ok but compared to you all, I’m a little worried haha! Rank 4 in the class, 3.9/4.7 weighted GPA, 4 AP and 2 honors (with phys. Ed and band being mt only other retular classes), Catholic, XC captain as a Junior leading our team to state championship, 1320 SAT (M+CR), Secretary of Key Club (just got elected as president), Sunday School teacher at my church, head guard at summer job as a lifeguard, and, of course, a legacy student (father ran at ND when he attended). White female from Southern NJ (for any football fans out there, ND tried recruiting my classmate Ahmir Mitchel this year, although he chose Michigan, so hopefully ND won’t take that rejection out on me :P) Grades and SAT are a little concerning to me but should my other roles make up for it, do you think?
@brbg2021 yes, they emailed me February 8th. It just asked for an updated transcript.

Has anyone received an email about them reviewing your application? I know in years past they have done this, but I have not received one and know I have turned in everything for my app…
In the email they sent in February requesting the updated transcript it stated “in order to complete the review” of your application.
Nothing since that.
I was worried about that too, but since it doesn’t seem as if anyone has gotten an email I think they’ve just not sent one out this year.
As far as I’ve heard, those emails usually would come out around March 10th give or take although don’t count on my word since they can always decide to change!
Hi everybody!
This conversation is definitely freaking me out: my stats are not even close to yours. I hope my essay turned things ito my favour, but again I don’t want to get my hopes up! Also, I’m from France and I’m expecting the letter to come in around the end of March for me since they’re emailed on the 14th. Arghhhh I really wish there was just an email! Well, good luck to all of you:)
