<p>@dmichelle2014 i think its either that y r a full scholarship athlete or a honors student or top 10% of class</p>
<p>Accepted to CSOM. 33 ACT, 770 Math 2. GPA hard to compare as I go to a competitive private school. Have 4 major leadership positions, SYA and Catholic background. I would say I had among the best essays they received. I am not a great writer but I just had clairvoyance when writing the essay about let the great world spin. </p>
<p>D waitlisted, Accepted with scholarships to other schools, including Northeastern Business program, already committed to Richmond so not too affected but high scores,+comm service, high GPA. We have found this whole admission process to be a crap shoot… Congrats to all the accepted. Have fun in Beantown!</p>
<p>Wait…I didn’t get any letters yet! Why is that?
My friends have gotten them already! And we go to the same school!</p>
<p>@seniorpanic- don’t worry if you have not received your letter. You should receive it in a day or two. It might have something to do with which school you applied to ( CSOM, CAS, Lynch or the nursing school.)</p>

<p>@RCLVRR on the tour the rep said that it was nearly impossible to transfer into CSOM, he said that he only heard of 2 people actually doing it the previous year </p>
<p>@dmichelle2014. Oh man ok thanks. I applied to the business school for every other one of my colleges I just don’t know why I applied ton A&S for this one! Do u know if maybe it’s easier to transfer before school starts? Or is that what the tour guide was already referring to? </p>
<p>@RCLVRR I’m not sure of transferring before school starts but I know he was referring to transferring within the school year. </p>
