<p>Sounds like a good point Kaley.</p>
<p>I would send the scores in if it’s not too late. They might have a decision to you before they get the scores though.</p>
<p>Bellamente. I have over 63 credits, and my SAT score was god awful (1340). However, I sent them email requesting to waive my scores and they accepted. I don’t get why you can’t do the same.</p>
<p>Accepted! For reference, I sent all my stuff in on the last possible day (June 1st) and received my acceptance via email.</p>
<p>my SAT score was 2150
high school GPA was quite good
but my college GPA’s were’nt too fine.</p>
<p>fall semester:3.278
spring semester:3.144</p>
<p>I handed my app like a month ago but all of my materials were “completed” on the opus
like the beginning of the second week of june?</p>
<p>haven’t heard back</p>
<p>do i even have a chance??? :<</p>
<p>So how did you guys have your SAT scores waived? Did you just send them an e-mail which politely asked them to overlook these scores, or did you have to provide a full story in regards to why your scores might possibly be seen as sub-par when viewed from your current plateau of academic achievement? Also, did you choose to not send your hs transcripts in addition to your SAT scores?</p>
<p>did everyone receive an email that said they were accepted? i thought emory didn’t give out decisions online or by phone. i’m away from home right now so i asked a friend to check my mail for me but i havent received anyting yet. so nervous :(</p>
<p>My SAT scores were 1270 or 1880, so if you have two years of college already done, they obviously don’t matter that much.</p>
<p>I chose to send my HS transcripts because I had included a letter in my application regarding my disciplinary history, writing about how I got in all that trouble during my high school years and I think the transcripts tell the story (pretty much got all F’s or either A’s and B’s, and in my last year I went from 10th grade status to graduating, earning over 12 credits with all good grades.) Plus my two high school teachers, who are witnesses to me changing my life, think I’m a genius and they voluntarily sent letters with the transcripts… </p>
<p>But on the Emory transfer page it says you can request to have HS transcripts waived if you have adequate college coursework completed (I am not sure but I think 2 years.)</p>
<p>Just wanted to know if anyone else has heard back from Emory, yet…</p>
<p>east89,</p>
<p>I just pointed out that after 2 year of college you could waive the hs transcript, if its also possible to waived my SAT Score when I already have 63 credits. They Agreed. I’m submitting my hs transcript, but not my SAT since its just awful.</p>
<p>accepted! never got an email though…</p>
<p>I’m really getting worried. I submitted all my application materials by June 1, however, my SAT/ACT scores still say initiated (I submitted them before June 1). </p>
<p>I called the office but to no avail, they just told me that they can’t tell me anything and that if they haven’t received the Admissions Department would let me know some way, but they have no way of knowing if they have it right now.</p>
<p>Any ideas on what to do? I’m worried that this will hurt my chances of acceptance.</p>
<p>^I submitted a recommendation and it still says initiated… I’m not sure why, I wouldn’t worry too much- if you sent them they probably received them (I would say to send them again to just to make sure if you’re extremely worried). Has anyone else heard back yet?</p>
<p>Thanks, Kaley. When did you submit your recommendation?</p>
<p>No problem 
I submitted an extra one last week (late I know), and one about a month ago… I’m sure they probably got them but just didn’t update the system, at least that’s what I’m hoping!</p>
<p>Thats bogus that they are letting people slide without SAT scores now. I applied for winter transfer without one and was told by a couple people on the phone that I could just write a letter requesting it be waived, and then the dean told me (weeks later) they absolutely would not consider my app without SAT/ACT score (I never took it). I wasted the app and fin aid (css profile) money for nothing, not to mention time writing the essays. Now I hear they are letting people apply without them…Emory is a joke. It was only my third choice and I got into my top choice (Cornell), so it all worked out in the end, but I am pretty ****ed off that they are changing the rules left and right. The dean even told me that they made it clear to their entire staff that there are absolutely no exceptions on having SAT scores, and now, a few months later, they start changing rules. And I had 77 credits at the time… And this has nothing to do with the people that got in without scores this time, congratulations to you all, this was directed at the management of the school.</p>
<p>Ok. Just “bumping” this.</p>
<p>ok so in case someone doesnt know, the people who do the transfer applications (emily simmons and one other guy) are away from emory for a few more days for some kind of conference so they wont be reviewing applications again until they get back. i dont know exactly when they get back but i think its sometime next week, but just know that youre not going to hear back until proably at least a week from now.</p>
<p>i got an email saying that i was accepted</p>
<p>I tried getting the scores waived and they will not let me, and I have over 80 college credits, so now I have to wait at least a week to get the $50 to pay the ACT people to send my scores from years ago and that will take at least another week to even process…</p>
