<p>Applied Fin Aid: Yes. I need a full financial aid which will just make it impossible for me to get in.

Enrolling as Junior</p>
<p>looks like they’re reviewing our applications…my financial aid to do list on the portal has shown I needed FAFSA/CSS/IDOC even though I submitted all three 6-8 weeks ago…today the FAFSA was shown as received. Imagine they’re weighing financial need</p>
<p>how difficult is it for transfer applicants to get any financial aid? I’m a domestic applicant. Do they give any? Do they give only to the top applicants? </p>
<p>My EFC is 0, would I have any chances to get in if I need almost full financial aid?</p>
<p>^Have you read the thread linked to in post #6? It is likely your best source of information since it is coming from members who have actually received FA packages as B transfers, not people who are currently applying.</p>
<p>have you guys’ materials all been checked off? Mine hasn’t changed at all and there are a lot materials missing…</p>
<p>I am thinking about transferring to Brown next year and I am not very familiar with the process. Is there anyone here who is kind enough to explain how difficult it is to transfer to Brown and how does the process go?</p>
<p>Mid-term report never shows up
And TOEFL doesn’t either
</p>
<p>I have until May 1st to pay up deposit to universities I was accepted to.Is it possible for Brown to release decisions earlier ?Sigh.</p>
<p>Guys, Brown hasn’t sent me any email with a “check application status”</p>
<p>Never mind, I went and did a password reset without getting the email in the first place, I had a blank security question and I hit spacebar and somehow it all worked. Weird.</p>
<p>I was just looking at the undergraduate admissions website and it says that transfer applicants should apply before the March 1 deadline. I applied on March 1, does that mean I won’t get in?</p>
<p>I don’t think they’ll give a damn, quite frankly.</p>
<p>@filmandwriting: The transfer deadline is assumed to be 11:59pm, their university time (in this case, it’ll be EST). So as long as you submitted before midnight on the East Coast, you’ll be fine. I submitted mine about half an hour before the deadline, and my materials have all been received. 
Good luck!</p>

<p>malleilactone you have fantastic stats!</p>
<p>My admission status hasn’t yet changed till today.Anyone knows when Brown will most likely hand out decisions?</p>
<p>@bumblebee12: Brown’s decisions should be available in mid-May, according to their website. Fingers crossed! :)</p>
<p>Just thought I would give this thread a bump after a week. :)</p>
<p>I guess ppl don’t have too much to talk before the decisions start to get released lol</p>
<p>does anyone know if there’s a more specific day that decisions could start to be released? I know last year they started getting mailed out around May 7th but the year before that wasn’t until the 15th or something</p>
<p>I can’t help stalking this thread everyday.</p>
