WOW Siena must be hard then… I really want to get into one Albany program :slight_smile: OMG…life.

has anyone heard from brown plme or brown undergrad yet? i havent ;/

@chihuahua1 Nice to have this community’s support through this roller coaster ride. We encourage each other through this tough journey. thanks!

They admit you to Brown, admit you to PLME or reject you from one or the other when the overall results come. They are not a BS/MD type result where they will be talking to you before they announce their overall results.

Sorry for all the rejections from Siena. My D received rejection letter from UAB EMSAP through snail mail. It is indeed tough.

yea i just haven’t heard from brown undergrad at all since I applied RD …

From Brown Admissions: If you have not received an email by January 29, please contact the Office of College Admission

@lifeishard i got it through snail mail. I have a 31 ACT and a 3.9 GPA

My son got the rejection from Siena as well today.

What are you expecting to hear from Brown? You should have online access to your app and outside of that you may have an alum interview. However, alum interviews will not decide whether you will get into PLME or Brown in most cases.

@lifeishard Rejection letter was thru the snailmail (regular postal mail). I will post the stats later.

@sc6789‌ yup! That’s what I gave them. Good luck :slight_smile:

I also got rejection from Siena. Hoping for good news from other places for all of us!!

This entire process is just so bizarre and random. I got interview notification for Siena but not BU and surely BU is the “easier” program to get into.

I also called UConn and they said that we would hear back the latest by March.

@Veritas13‌ so will UCONN release their decision with the regular decision release? Like will there be an interview stage?

@jb9832‌
Honestly they gave me very little information about the selection process. All that I know is that we’ll hear back from them by March. I would assume that they have an interview stage though, as all other programs (except PLME) do.
