I didn’t see a thread for RD so I figured I’d create one.
Hi everyone! I applied EA for political science but got deferred so now I’m in with the regular decision pool. It’ll definitely be a long wait until April for me!
One quick question- I uploaded my resume on the application check and its status is listed as “bad.” Does anyone know why this is/has anyone had this happen to them?
I also applied EA and was deferred. Does anyone know what other forms i should submit to boost my application in the RD pool? I already have my resume, award certificates, and a list of extracurricular activities.
Hi! I applied RD and uploaded a document that was listed “bad” as well. Really would like to know what this means too.
Call admissions and ask them @successbound1
Any suggestions would be good honestly.
I uploaded an article I wrote for the online addition of our school’s newpaper for a series of articles that was mentioned by many local newspapers/magazines. I looked and the file says “OK”. It could be that yours is too big?
I also applied RD for Biology. Did anyone else get the Global Survey email?
I have uploaded three things so far and they all say OK. I would suggest calling.
@Chrysanthemum14 I recieved the global survey email too! I think it’s just a general survey they send out to all regular decision applicants.
If your document was listed as “bad” double check to make sure you uploaded it as a PDF! I forgot, and uploaded my resume as a word doc, but they want it in PDF format. I resubmitted my resume as a PDF, so hopefully that will work.
I also received the global survey email. They mentioned in the email that they were sending it out to all applicants. I’m assuming they’re trying to determine some possible NUin information, but I’m not sure.
Im an international student.
IB grades:34/42
IELTS:7.0/9.0
U-weighted GPA - 3.57/4
Applied to D’amore mckim for management. Since I’m an international applicant, I don’t have to submit my SAT scores.
Essay:9/10
Reccomandations:10/10
Additional recommendation (Guidance counsellor) - 10/10
Counsellor recommendation:10/10
400+ hours of extracurricular activities
What do you guys think?
Do I have a chance?
I can get my predicted GPA to a 3.7/3.8 because I did well in my recent IB exams too.
Accepted 4 days ago! A day before, one of the admissions officers sent me an email telling me my application was strong. My counselor then sent my mid-year transcript for senior year and I was accepted the next day. I honestly had NO clue they were going to let me know early and I just happened to see the email while looking at my inbox. I was accepted into the Honors Program.
@abbaabbacdecde wow, congratulations! That’s great news. 
Hey guys, as a side note, my Gmail spam filter caught the acceptance email from NEU (only found it cause looking for a receipt), so this might have happened to you. Be sure to check it out.
Can someone clarify what’s going on with decisions? I’ve checked the Results Thread, and it seems that RD applicants are being accepted. How is this working?
The students accepted last week were those who received USP and major merit aid along with some international applicants. The remaining decisions will be released in mid-March.
@TomSrOfBoston Thanks!
Has anyone heard from the Torch Scholars program?
@TomSrOfBoston I’m pretty sure they told those who got honors as well
@schroscat I think its only for scholarship students or smth because the rest of regular pool gets told in march
