do you guys know when we will get brown emails?
Does anyone have trouble with the accepting offer page? The link in the acceptance letter isn’t working for me…
does anyone have a @brown.edu email yet?
No not yet. And I also have trouble viewing the accepting offer page.
Has anyone received their acceptance packages in the mail yet? I live in California so I know it will take a while to get to me, but I’m going crazy!
@HillaryB you might be able to check USPS (if that’s how its being shipped) - https://www.usps.com/manage/#
you just have to make an account and it tells you about packages being shipped to your house. let me know if you see anything!
Would everyone post their stats and whether they applied for financial aid to help students applying next year gauge their chances?
@ deller123
Transferring from a CC in the southwest
GPA: 3.93
ACT: 34
A decent amount of EC’s I am passionate about (one of them ended up being a key subject in my personal statement)
Applied for financial aid
Accepted for the fall semester
Accepted for Fall Semester!
Transfering from a Canadian university
GPA: 3.93
SAT: 2200, Math II: 750, Chem: 710
Solid EC’s and essays
Did not apply for FA
Received my package via FedEx yesterday, mostly stuff on student visa’s and payment etc., nothing too exciting.
@brownbear21 where in canada do you live? (still waiting for my package on west coast)
Everyone, please post your sats on this discussion board (http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/brown-university/1891450-2016-transfer-student-decisions.html#latest) so you can help future Brown transfers gauge their chances. Thanks!
I live near Toronto @samfeldt
Ayyyy just got my acceptance package! It’s hype! Also I’m guessing we ain’t gonna have a Transfers Facebook group huh?
@BatWonder77 Maybe not an ‘official’ one, but one of us could start one up? It’d be nice to get to know of some of you guys over the summer
There seems to be a trend that juniors are accepted to start fall term and sophomores start in the spring. Anyone else notice this?
@tobrown2016 if you don’t mind me asking, are you a freshman or sophomore transfer?
@misfits2123 I just finished up my sophomore year at my CC, however I will be a second semester sophomore at Brown when I start in the fall
I’ll make a Facebook group for us then. Will post the link in a bit
@tobrown2016 interesting! that’s awesome… you still saved a ton of money. I just got done with my first year at CC so I’m wondering if I should stick around one more year, get my associates, and then apply again… Brown is my dream school but the idea of another year at cc hurts.
