Official UChicago Fall 2014 Transfer Thread

<p>I thought I would start a discussion for the prospective University of Chicago transfer students as we wait for the decision letters to be sent. How is everybody feeling about their application and essays?</p>

<p>Mneh. It was okay. BTW, does anyone know if we had to send in a midterm report? A couple of my classes don’t have grades yet. And I emailed admissions, but they never replied to me.</p>

<p>Nevermind! They did reply, it just ended up in my spam for some reason. It’s not required (they said it twice, so I guess it REALLY isn’t), for anyone wondering! No awkward confrontations with teachers for me! :D</p>

<p>They were okay. I managed to figure out something really awesome for the essays. Does anyone know when are the decisions due?</p>

<p>Feeling really good about my application, but I know their retention rate is crazy high (I think it’s over 99%)… they only accepted 22 transfers in fall 2012. So I’m expecting the worst, but hoping for the best. Good luck to everyone! :)</p>

<p>Did they email you or do we have accounts or anything? I sent inn everything but I don’t think the school ever emailed me</p>

<p>hey guys, lets get this thread going. @Scurrilous you should have an account. If you applied previously, you will probably not receive a new invitation e-mail but you can reset your password here: <a href=“Login | The University of Chicago College Admissions”>Login | The University of Chicago College Admissions;

<p>you will have to use the e-mail address that you indicated on your TRANSFER application this year.
Also, if you have any questions, just call them because they are extremely patient, kind, and helpful:)</p>

<p>Just called Admissions. They said decisions will be out “sometime within the next two weeks, so before May 15. Deposits will be due June 1.”</p>

<p>Did anyone’s detailed checklist disappeared?</p>

<p>@wellletshope‌ Mine!! I thought it’s my browser, so it is not.</p>

<p>The anticipation is killing me. </p>

<p>@Springg1994 Did your checklist disappear?</p>

<p>@wellletshope‌ yes it did; do you think that means anything?</p>

<p>@wellletshope‌ If you don’t mind me asking, what colleges did you apply to/which ones have you heard back from already?</p>

<p>Haha, no. I don’t think it means anything, I was just wondering if it is glitch or not.</p>

<p>Last year people received decisions at the end of the work day of May 7… so maybe only 2 more days!</p>

<p>Good to know! Thanks!</p>

<p>Did anybody else just get an email about decisions being released, but then log in to find that there’s no status update yet?</p>

<p>I got an email too that says my admission decision is ready and I am denied admission</p>

<p>Waitlisted.</p>

<p>I hope that Chicago is not one of the schools that waitlists loads of people.</p>
