Official Brown 2011 Transfer Thread

<p>Lmao, seriously?! None of this makes sense. Why is there only 1 admission officer calling people when everyone in that damn office knows that 2,000 people applied and there will be nearly that many calls?! Also, if there are multiple officers…how can they just go on lunch break without leaving someone to take care of this business?!</p>

<p>^^^ me too transfer…</p>

<p>

</p>

<p>Uh oh…I don’t have a personal information tab, and I didn’t apply for aid. That makes me think I may be rejected.</p>

<p>In my personal opinion, I don’t think we can deduce our decision from the self service website!</p>

<p>I’ve always had the personal info tab, so don’t think too much about it.</p>

<p>Anyone gotten a call back?</p>

<p>They arent calling until after 2</p>

<p>Yeah could anyone explain about the 20? Did Brown accept only about 20 applicants this year as well? If thats true, its deadly.</p>

<p>Why do keep people mentioning fin. aid btw? I thought Brown had a need-blind policy? Does that not apply for transfers? In that case, I’m probably screwed haha</p>

<p>Brown is very much need-aware.</p>

<p>*Penny…Brown is accepting 200 transfer this year because they need to make more revenue…This is good and bad…good for paying students…not really applicable to financial aid students…</p>

<p>*Sparking…financial aid for transfers is need aware which means it effects ur decision because they are looking for paying customers to hit revenue quotas…They have 400k in financial aid for transfers and when they runs out…they reject everyone else because there is no more money</p>

<p>B is need-aware for transfer applicants. See post #8 of this thread.</p>

<p>Here is a link for anyone curios of what Brown is doing …</p>
