<p>Hey guys, so I noticed this thread had not been started yet. I'm a current applicant to Rice and lets speak on this thread to support one another.</p>
<p>Cool! Count me in</p>
<p>@Juvenis What school did you apply to?</p>
<p>Arts & Letters. You?</p>
<p>@Juvenis At the Brown School of Engineering. I really hope I get in haha. Well, I’m sure it’s the same with you.</p>
<p>@sorakeybade OMG lol I meant the School of Humanities!!! LMAO sorry Arts & Letters is for Notre Dame :P</p>
<p>@Juvenis Don’t worry about it LOL. I applied to Notre Dame as well.</p>
<p>do you know when they release decisions? and are you applying as an incoming soph or junior?</p>
<p>@Juvenis I’m applying as an incoming sophomore. Notre Dame released in June, you need to send in your final grades for the year. And, Rice is anytime from May to June 1st according to their website.</p>
<p>Holy crap that’s late.</p>
<p>Anyone know how they’re going to post admissions decisions? Email, Esther, the Application Portal? I’m getting antsy waiting on it to arrive!!!</p>
<p>Hey transfers! I thought I would stop by to see if this thread was up. I’m a transfer from 2012, and wanted to offer you any advice or answrr questions to y’all that are admitted. I think you should have gotten them yesterday or if not maybe soon.</p>
<p>Hey wallaceicy06</p>
<p>I got my acceptance today! I’ll likely do premed track.
Any advice? :)</p>
<p>@Riceisin How did you get your decision?</p>
<p>Also accepted today. Will be a junior transfer studying mechanical engineering (and perhaps Civil as well).</p>
<p>High school stats:
GPA: 4.4ish W/3.9ish UW
ACT: 32 highest composite
SAT: N/A
Extracurriculars: nothing too big of note except I interned at a rehabilitation hospital over the summer junior year and graduated one semester early to work at the same place full time. I had to drop almost all my other activities sophomore year because my father had a stroke that paralyzed him.</p>
<p>College (top 40 U.S. News):
GPA: 4.0
Extracurriculars: Academic Integrity Board, peer tutoring, research position, work study job, Habitat for Humanity, various chair positions in Sigma Phi Epsilon fraternity, our school’s honors service fraternity, and intramural football/volleyball/softball. Also interned at same rehabilitation hospital over the summers.</p>
<p>This is my third year applying and I’ve been rejected, then waitlisted the past two years, so it’s great to finally get an acceptance. There’s a 95% chance I’ll attend, though I may try to take a gap year. Good luck to those waiting.</p>
<p>When did you guys get your decisions?</p>
<p>@wellletshope Just a few hours ago, they sent me an email about a status change.</p>
<p>Just a few hours ago, they sent me an email about a status change.</p>
<p>Still nothing. Rolling admissions stink!</p>
<p>I got in today, who thinks they’re going to attend or is hoping to hear from a different school?</p>
