<p>Dear Transfer Admissions of Northwestern University,</p>
<p>Hello! Thank you for the fast reply.</p>
<p>My school is on a quarter system (UCLA) , so I believe our grades will be avaliable late June...</p>
<p>I have sent my winter grades.</p>
<p>Does that mean I would not be able to get a decision before the final grades are avaliable for spring quarter?</p>
<p>Thank you very much!</p>
<p>Sincerely,</p>
<p>charlesjeon</p>
<p>i was reading through last year's thread, and someone from UCLA found out around June 23rd. a bunch of people found out at that time, actually</p>
<p>really? thanks</p>
<p>frig!!! !!!!!!!!!!!</p>
<p>ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh</p>
<p>hey guys! help! if i need to know my decision early, do you think i should email them? do any of you guys know who to email or a sample email?? thanks muchoo</p>
<p>I'm pretty sure all of us have been talking to Elijah Park, so I guess he would be the one to contact, though I'm not sure if you'd be able to expedite your decision.</p>
<p>charlesjeon, did you ever get a reply to your question about being on the quarter system and final grades coming out in late june?</p>
<p>i spoke with some guy today and he told me that spring grades are not necessary.</p>
<p>Spring grades are usually only needed if you are a freshman transfer or the university is on the fence with you. I think the admissions officer in charlesjeon's letter was oly referring to him.</p>
<p>The application status page indicates that all current freshman need to send their spring grades. </p>
<p>I'm not going to. I already accepted at WashU and I doubt NU is going to give me a better financial aid package.</p>
<p>Hey if anyone gets the email saying what documents, etc. you are missing, can you post on here? I want to know when they go out because I might be missing something.</p>
<p>Alright, I just got my spring grades in, and I need your guys' opinion. My GPA before grades was a 3.91, with only one B. My grades for this semester were 3 As and one B, and my GPA stayed at 3.91. Now here's where things get a bit more complicated.</p>
<p>Before this semester, I didn't take too many science classes (one) or any math classes. This quarter, however, I took one of each and received As in them.</p>
<p>So, here's my question: do I send in my spring transcripts or not? I'm not a transferring freshman, so from what I've heard, it's not necessary. But is it a good idea? I'd really like to get in to NU as my other reach school rejected me, so I'll do anything to improve my chances. </p>
<p>Thanks guys.</p>
<p>whats the problem exactly?</p>
<p>Does the good of me getting two As in classes that I haven't been taking outweigh the bad of getting another B?</p>
<p>dmorr, it depends on ur intended major, especially since u r applying as a junior transfer; if u stated interest in anything heavily related to science and/or math I'd send them, if not ur GPA remained constant so it prob wouldn't hurt. U should call and ask Elijah Park (I believe that's his name) for his personal opinion (847-467-1864)--he's the transfer admissions representative for Northwestern and he's been quite helpful in my experience.</p>
<p>Also, dmorr, if you do not mind me asking, what school do u currently attend? Your previous posts seem to imply that u attend a school in the Chicago area. Just curious (I currently attend DePaul).</p>
