**Official Fall 2014 Brown Transfer Thread**

<p>“Transfer students are admitted to Brown under a need-aware Admission policy. Need aware means that financial need will be taken into account in making the admission decision.”</p>

<p>Considering I have full-need, I guess I should be grateful for the waitlist.</p>

<p>Accept! I’m transferring from UC Berkeley into my sophomore year. I had a 4.0 GPA first semester, and decent marks on my midterm report. I had a 2070 SAT and a 34 ACT, as well as three 800 SAT IIs and 8 5 APs and 2 4 APs. I got one rec letter from the chair of the linguistics department and another from the chair of the computer science department, who also does research at Google. See you guys there! :)</p>

<p>Waitlisted
From a community college in California and didn’t have any crazy extra-curriculars so I guess I’m still grateful.</p>

<p>I’m partial to Berkeley right now, so it looks like I’ll be attending there.</p>

<p>Followup to my previous post: I spoke with an admissions officer and they said they’re going to seriously consider my request to switch from the Fall to Spring semester, so you can definitely make a request to switch. So, in brief, given that i’ve indicated my preference to switch to the Spring term, if you want to enroll in the Fall it wouldn’t hurt to send admissions a quick email with the request and justify why u’re making the request.</p>

<p>Well I was wrong. I got accepted into the Spring 2015 term after it showed up on my portal a day ago. I think if you do see “Spring 2015” it does mean you are accepted for the Spring. Congratulations to everyone!</p>

<p>anyone accepted as a philosophy major or from the Los Angeles area PM me, I’d like to interact with new Brown members so I’m not a loner at Brown in the fall. THANKS</p>

<p>Pretty disappointed and somewhat surprised. Currently at Northwestern. Going to Columbia.</p>

<p>to those accepted, have you received any emails from Brown? thanks</p>

<p>Nope not yet! But it said in the electronic acceptance letter than an official letter and acceptance packet will be coming soon in the mail.</p>

<p>@yuhgene @willtavlin @Coupdegrace Congratulations You Guys!!! Feel happy for you all!!!
I am waitlisted and can you please tell me the reply due date assigned to you guys?</p>

<p>@wangtaozhang‌ The reply date is June 5th!</p>

<p>Are any of the spring transfers planning on studying abroad?</p>

<p>For all those acceptd in the Fall and Spring. Big Congrats! Got my good news today. Would like to hear the “pluses and minuses of Fall vs Spring Transfer admit”</p>

<p>@Maytransfer14‌ Is your reply date also June 5th?</p>

<p>Waitlisted and NOT applying for FA. I’m gonna be a junior transfer so I think they waitlisted me because they are worried that I might not be able to graduate on time (I’m a business major and many of my business course credits cannot be transferred)</p>

<p>@wangtaozhang Yes the 5th</p>

<p>Collegekid77, check your college confidential message inbox. I’m interested in switching places with you.</p>

<p>how come admission decisions are not available now?</p>

<p>Is anyone not going that got in?</p>
