**** official brown u 2016 transfers ****

My status page only shows the application fee and SAT as completed, everything else is blank… Is this happening to anyone else?

^ missing my high school transcript even though I sent it in before my college transcript… which was received loll @jwanabust

@jwanabust the only thing that isn’t indicated as “received” for me is the counselor recommendation. the entire “status” column is blank though, except for the application fee line.

What kind of “supplementary materials” could one submit in? I thought about adding my art portfolio but it is probably irrelevant since it has nothing to do with my major right?

@nyudanu @kfellysnena I think counselor recommendation is the college official report!

Nah counsellor recommendation doesn’t show up for me. It says intructor evaluations. College report and college transcript does show up. Everything is there, but my high school report and transcript which I sent in like a week ago along with my college report and transcript? I’m kinda worried lol

What is final school transcript in the application portal?

@cornell1203 I believe that’s the High School Transcript you had to sent in.

Also, on my file the Mid-Term Report is not listed as a ‘Requirement.’ I already sent it in a couple weeks ago, but I was wondering if there’s any way to know for sure if it was received or not.

Did you guys send in a high school transcript or a high school transcript WITH the final high school report?

Also! Anyone know if / how transfer applicants can send in an art supplement? Through slide room?

I sent my high school transcripts with the final high school report in January, (i am not sure it is required) but still it does not marked as received so far.

@misfits2123 @catlas2014 i want to submit an art supplement too! clicked on their slideroom link in the supplementary materials column, but it didn’t direct me to a portfolio page and just jumped back to brown’s admissions site…

Their slideroom portal ended sometime in February. You could ask to see if they would reopen it again, though!

Anyone else panic when they saw the decision: “click here” tab?

I didn’t get that. Could it be a sign perhaps? Maybe it’s there cheeky way of letting you know you got in :wink:
Like a “likely letter” lol

Does anyone know when the decisions will be coming out?

They say early May

@misfits2123 Hahaha yes I was like “oh well this is early.” Then nothing xD.
@BatWonder77 I sure hope so

@Zwischenzug :
Wow! That’s an impressive application.
I say you’re almost guaranteed a spot at Brown. I say that if you don’t get in, it isn’t because of the fact that you wouldn’t be able to handle the workload, but rather they probably thought that you were already going to an academically well-regarded school. But like I said, you have a very strong application so the chances of you not being accepted is extremely low.
May I ask that you chance me please? Also, what other schools are you applying to may I ask?
