<p>PKAT44: i’m international and i was contacted by an alum about a week ago. I’m having my interview this thursday (oh dear!). I hope that’s helpful for you…</p>
<p>My college counselor came up to me in the hallway today and said “GOOD NEWS! I heard from a very secret source that your decision might be out earlier than you thought!”</p>
<p>I’m skeptical but I can’t say that didn’t make my heart skip a beat. Firstly, I have no idea how she would find out about this (I had no idea my cc had ~connections~). Secondly, even if Brown had the decisions ready, wouldn’t they wait until the official date anyway to send them out? Maybe she was just referring to Dec. 11th as opposed to Dec. 15th.</p>
<p>What do you guys think? Gahhh, my love/hate relationship with Dec. 11th is driving me crazy.</p>
<p>17 days
<em>breathes weakly</em></p>
<p>Yeah, I’m excited. And very very frightened. It’s interesting to be judged. This could be very vindicating though, if it isn’t soul-crushing. Gotta love the extremes of emotion here.</p>
<p>Thanks to the different time zones, the result will be out as the sun rises where I stay. What a way to start off the day, eh?</p>
<p>I’m not exactly frightened at the moment. I know I will be shaking as I log into the site on the 11th, though.</p>
<p>I keep thinking about what one of my seniors said: “I’m glad that I applied EA (to a certain college) because even though I did not get in, it helped me a lot for my other applications.” Her statement is becoming more and more applicable to me as the days go by. I just hope the middle bit doesn’t happen as well in this case.</p>
<p>i totally know what you mean! I have a much clearer idea of how I want to make my app now. It’s just unfortunate that Brown kind of turned out to be the “experimental” app :(</p>
<p>5 pm EST? Or like some other time zone?</p>
<p>Also, is it too late to call them for an alumni interview? XD I’ve kinda been waiting around and I forgot to call today. T_T</p>
<p>Does anyone know how long it takes for them to process materials? They never got my secondary school report so I called last monday and they said to send a duplicate. I got my counselor to send it that afternoon. And on wednesday I got the email saying my application was incomplete and to send duplicate items. However it still not has been recieved, and I really want to get it in before thanksgiving break. I live in NorCal so I would get it would be in their mail by thursday or friday, depending, so does anyone have an idea about when I should expect it to come up as recieved or if I should call again?</p>
<p>Ugh why did the first one have to get lost/misfiled somewhere whyyyyyyyyy</p>
<p>Swang: I don’t know… I never called, I just got an email from an alum. There’s no harm in calling just to make sure.</p>
<p>AdequateRemedy: I panicked when they didn’t receive one of my recs but after I re-sent it, it came up as ‘received’ after only a day or two. I would suggest calling them to be safe.</p>
<p>Was yours sent electronically though talkslikejune? Because that would obviously take less time than something sent by paper.</p>
<p>adequateremedy: relax, I appleid last yuear and a bunch of my stuff was missing which I had to re-send, it only reached like on the 28th of Nov, and it was totally ok.</p>
<p>adequateremedy: Yeah, mine was sent through commonapp. I assumed you were sending your school report electronically. Sorry, my bad.</p>
<p>hey I found this site/got an account tonight and have been reading this thread…I must say, it’s great to know all I’m not alone and that you other EDers are out there stewing in their own juice just like me!
Has anybody else had dreams/nightmares about getting our notifications??
good luck everyone</p>
<p>Not exactly… I did have a nightmare about my interview. We’d said to meet at this Starbucks, so I went there and I couldn’t find him and I was waiting forever, so I left and when I had left I saw him and he was really angry because he’d been waiting for me forever at a different Starbucks. And I was getting upset and I told him that he’d said to meet at THIS Starbucks (he really did) and he said that’s no excuse. Then he said there was no way I’d get into Brown with this kind of an attitude. </p>
<p>:(. At least I already had my interview.</p>
<p>Haha thanks everyone and sorry for panicking, I tend to do that… heh. But they got it today!! So now I can relax, somewhat anyway haha.</p>
<p>common lucky 13…</p>
<p>Has anyone been logging into his/her [temporary] student account to track his/her application status? The links that are available to me when I sign in changed today… it used to provide a simple, single path to see my application (applicant and student –> review my application(s) –> fall 2009), but now I have all sorts of links like registration, student account, student records, et al. Did this happen to everyone?</p>
<p>I don’t know if that happens to everyone…but it does happen to me…</p>
<p>Do you know if you were accepted or deferred?</p>
<p>That happened to me, as well… but it still says “admissions decisions are currently not available”. Anyone know why?</p>
<p>I don’t know the result of my admission…</p>
<p>I think that happens to everybody.</p>
