**Official Rice University Fall --2018-- Transfer Thread**

@NathaliaNhem tbh, I don’t believe any one of us could answer that for you. I would suggest to just let it be at this point since you made your decision on submitting another essay and it is completely out of your hand. If you really want to know maybe giving them a call and specifically ask about it.

@IVokon I’m not going to call, that would be too extra haha. But I hope submitting a new essay won’t hurt me. PRAY FOR ME!!! Thank you for the response, though! :smiley:

Hi everyone! Checking in as a transfer applicant. :slight_smile:

@butfirstcoffee HELLO! WELCOME!

@turtlelover24. I’m amazed by your story! I am transferring this fall too and hope to see you there!

looks like we might get some news starting mid-April (according to the calendar).

Have you guys done the CSS profile?? Is it required? I only did FAFSA

I did the CSS profile, not sure if it is required though. You can check on ESTHER under “financial aid requirements”.

@Valientes Looking at past threads, I’d would say that the bulk of the decisions come out the last Friday of April or the first Friday of May.

@BluePinkerton I’d agree with that! If we’re going to expect anything, our safest bet would be to expect decisions on either the 27th of this month or the 4th of May.

Hey guys I just came across this thread I’m freaking about about decisions coming out soon!! I’m applying to transfer as a psychology major in the school of social sciences, does anyone know if the admission rates vary based on which school you are applying to?

@BluePinkerton
I was wondering about that too. Do you know if last year’s decisions were also on a rolling basis between mid-April and mid-May?

@NathaliaNhem the CSS is required. Do this ASAP.

The only exception I am aware of is if you are applying for a “Dependency Override.” I have to apply every year because I am not technically an adult, but cannot provide parental information or proof of contact. In this case the CSS profile is irrelevant - I learned the hard way.

If you can supply your parents info CSS should be easy. It does have a small fee as well. After you have completed you CSS profile make sure to upload your parents tax info via IDOC. You will only have access to IDOC once the CSS profile is completed.

See a checklist here: https://financialaid.rice.edu/sites/g/files/bxs911/f/uploadedfiles/overview/RD%20Updates%20Application%20Checklist%201819%281%29.pdf

Maybe this Friday guys!

Rejected, good luck guys!

RICE IS OUT

Accepted.

I see Rice finally took a liking to me after last years L. <3 Love you too Rice, Im glad I won you over.

I literally just made this account

tbh I’m quite happy with the result, could have been worse.
Does Rice release the number they take from transfer waitlist each year?

@AGoodFloridian Haha, they always come around. Congrats!
