Official University of Chicago Transfer Fall 2009

<p>giri, thats a good thought… i’m hoping that it will be sooner than later :)</p>

<p>What does Chicago want to see in a transfer student, ideally?</p>

<p>Is anybody but me having trouble doing intense exam prep when they don’t know if they are accepted yet…?</p>

<p>yeah i am too. but i’m really not feeling too hopeful</p>

<p>If I’m forced to choose, I would rather want a brutal, agonizing, painful yet early and clear-cut rejection, than the rejection that comes after a week of torture. I’m not feeling too much positive either, but we’ll see…</p>

<p>Why are you guys feeling so negative about it?</p>

<p>I might be overreacting, but I guess I got a bit more defensive(or conservative) as the decision date is looming. I’m trying not to be overtly optimistic-because if things go terribly bad, then I can’t stand three straight rejections after so many high hopes and expectation.</p>

<p>Ok guys, i am looking at my calendar and this week and next week (up until may 15) constitute early to mid May. So we should be getting decisions any day now!!!</p>

<p>Hey, mist5556. It’s very difficult for any of us to tell you what UChicago wants in an ideal transfer applicant because none of us have been accepted as of yet. But after admissions decisions are made available, I would advise you to ask your question once again and at that time I am sure someone can share his or her experience with you.<br>
Also, you can try looking at the admissions website to get an idea, you may find something helpful there. Best of luck.</p>

<p>Just took my three hour Logic exam … during which I was thinking about college decisions half the time.</p>

<p>Good luck everyone!</p>

<p>Hey 20sticks, that’s what happened during my calc exam last week :(</p>

<p>Oh nooo, it is now officially the first week of May. Admissions should be coming out any day now! BARF. I’m so nervous! The anticipation is holding me back from writing my final paper that is due tomorrow…</p>

<p>I called today… “they are coming soon now!”
Me: “like, how soon?”
Chicago: “I can’t tell you!”</p>

<p>ahhh i’m going to frantically be checking my email every 5 minutes now</p>

<p>5/16/2008: the day that decisions came out last year.</p>

<p>I have another final in two hours and I keep thinking about this!</p>

<p>It’s going to be earlier than last year. The sixteenth is not early May.</p>

<p>Didn’t apply to Chicago, but I just wanted to wish you all the best of luck!</p>

<p>

Sounds like decisions are coming out today or tomorrow. I doubt the people at the Office will say “soon” if they’re not going to release decisions today or tomorrow. That will just be plain torture haha.</p>

<p>can someone call and verify that they’re saying soon but won’t tell when? I can’t call because I am away from phones (no celly) but I don’t think I believe the “like, how soon?” poster. No offence. I just think it’s weird. If they said that they’d have to be posting them tonight, no?</p>

<p>No offense taken. It’s what she said…</p>

<p>So, its 5:38 central time. Are we all giving up for today?</p>
