****OFFICIAL Northwestern CLASS OF 2019 Discussion Thread****

<p>@alafae‌ thank you for the suggestion!</p>

<p>@FailedHardAsian‌ lol just a typo -.- sorry? Are you applying to Weinberg?</p>

<p>Hello everyone, just jumping on this thread! I applied to Weinberg and am nervous as heck… I have a double legacy but I’m worried it won’t be enough. I don’t have crazy stats like so many of the applicants. And @nrk0530‌ I totally understand! I live pretty close to campus and find myself in Evanston occasionally. This is weird but I visited campus a few weeks ago just so I could go one more time before my admission decision. Because knowing me, if I don’t get in, I won’t want to go back for a long time… Lol!</p>

<p>Anyway, to reflect on the thread. I did receive an email about my ACT score, but I truly don’t think it’s anything to worry about. I also got one about diversity. And I wasn’t able to do an interview because they didn’t offer them in Illinois. I found that strange, but oh well.</p>

<p>Decision in around 7-8 days! I hope that my avg academic stats, questbridge status, and interview can pull me through!</p>

<p>We got this guysss!!! :)>- </p>

<p>I didn’t get any emails from NU after the confirmation email…
Hoping Diversity, ACT emails don’t mean much…!</p>

<p>@contracats24 I don’t think you have anything to worry about! You might just not have signed up to be on NU’s mailing list</p>

<p>I agree, don’t waste your time thinking about the mailing list. </p>

<p>Gosh I’m doing SAT on this saturday, and the nervousness of waiting process is overshadowing that of the standardized test already lol</p>

<p>@alafae GOOD LUCK!! SATs suck haha</p>

<p>@cms4515‌ SO SICK of it lol. thanks tho!</p>

<p>I’m wondering what GPA/Test scores you guys have? Mine is a 33ACT/4.09GPA</p>

<p>2080 SAT/ 2A*A GCE-A level predicted (that’s like 3.9 unweighted I guess)</p>

<p>Do you guys know if being an international music competition record holder helps compensate my SAT? :(</p>

<p>@alafae What competition is it? And can you afford 60k? or are you applying for financial aid?</p>

<p>Nope, I’m not in need of financial support. It’s an international piano competition, and I’m the local record holder. I’ve won various other competitions too.</p>

<p>applying to weinberg for cog sci from cali… been so nervous last couple of days</p>

<p>what time do the reuslts usually come out?</p>

<p>Haha i wish i didnt receive extra emails from NU besides the confirmation emails. every time i see “northwestern university” as the subject line i have a heart attack haha. ugh so nervous since my GPA is definitely there (4.5) but my act is kinda low (32).</p>

<p>@greenfire1431‌ 11th or 12th</p>

<p>3.79(uw),4.42(w)/35 ACT…I’m really concerned that my GPA is too low…</p>

<p>I have been lucky enough to maintain a 4.0 unweighted GPA. Unfortunately, my ACT is only a 30. This is still the 95th percentile though, so I’m hoping my 30 doesn’t rule me out. I have a pretty solid hook, I was featured on TLC as an extreme couponer to help food banks, also did German TV and won the FOX ‘Young Achiever’ award because of this. I really hope everything compensates for my 30…</p>
