There is processing time of about two-three weeks before you’ll get a confirmation email ( at least according to past NU threads ).
Just sent my application! I know I probably won’t get in because of my sh*t class rank, recs, GPA, and SAT subject test scores but maybe my essays ecs and SAT score can save me idk probably not lolol. I would seriously be shocked if I managed to get accepted lol
@netflicks I agree… no more chancing until decisions come out! There are other threads for that and honestly I’d rather discuss other things on this thread. Good call!
@RamenUniversity I’m in the same boat… I’m kinda hoping (PRAYING) for acceptance but I’m trying to control myself and be ready to bounce back for other applications if I don’t. I can get pretty devastated and start beating myself up for it so I have to be careful. Same goes for everyone else! Don’t beat yourselves up too much!!
How many of you have taken the SAT subject tests and how did you do? I’m studying for them right now for next saturday and they’re stressing the living hell out of me lol
@RamenUniversity I did 2 subject tests Math II (800) & Chemistry (750). I was hesitant to send in my chemistry score because it was around 70th percentile but after much consideration, I realised its a decent score. Don’t worry and just try get over 700s. The weightage on these (unless you’re applying for engineering or something specific) is minimal and unless you do horribly, it won’t hurt your chances.
So I turned in my application on the common app and sent them a transcript + my SAT scores, but I have not received an email from Northwestern (only a confirmation from commonapp)… is that normal?
