Stanford 2008 Transfer

<p>…where’d you get your ID?</p>

<p>ivytransfer- possibly…? congratulations, probably. are you going to go if you get in officially?</p>

<p>goldhamster, i got an ID# in my notification of missing materials.</p>

<p>i entered the info to get an id. and it say i have a previous acct that’s inactive.</p>

<p>Not to pee on the parade here, but wasn’t the trick proven false in last year’s thread when a student who couldn’t get the inactive account got admitted, and a few who got one were rejected?</p>

<p>bourne, that’s not the point. if you had entered your SSID you would know that it gives you the same message that ivy-transfer has seen-- you don’t get your UID because you need to be sponsored first.</p>

<p>but we might be able to establish who’s in if other people who have already registered with Sunet are kind/trusting enough to enter in their info and tell us what they see =^D</p>

<p>undisclosed: no, the “theory” was proven true once everyone got the snail mail</p>

<p>kiss: i think bourne and some other people already posted the notification of missing materials message. pretty sure it did not include a university ID this year…</p>

<p>It did contain an ID#, actually, or at least mine did.</p>

<p>…Mine did. It’s dated April 14 and contains a “Stanford ID Number” etc.</p>

<p>Dear XYZ,</p>

<p>We are pleased to note that we have received your Transfer application to Stanford
University and we have received all of the necessary credentials and materials to
provide your application with a comprehensive evaluation. We request that you do
not send us any additional credentials unless you feel they are absolutely essential
for review. We will not be able to consider any additional credentials received
after May 1, as we begin our final committee selection process beginning the first
of May. Admission officers will begin reviewing your application materials
immediately and will continue to do so over the course of the upcoming weeks. </p>

<p>We are aiming to provide you with an admission decision no later than May 15. All
decisions will be sent by email from Dean Richard Shaw to the address you provided
to us on your application. Please be sure to make arrangements with your internet
service provider/email provider to ensure that Stanford email can be delivered
without interruption or filtering, as internet service providers (such as AOL,
Comcast and Gmail) often filter college email, preventing your receipt of our
communication. We often find that applicants have their email accounts set to
auto-delete messages from
unrecognized sources, so please take the time to add Stanford to your email contact
list/address book so that you are able to receive your admission decision via email.</p>

<p>We look forward to learning more about you by reading your application in the coming
weeks.</p>

<p>Sincerely,</p>

<p>Shawn</p>

<p>Shawn L. Abbott
Director of Admission</p>

<p>mine doesn’t have one</p>

<p>i guess i’m in then :D</p>

<p>i wouldn’t be so sure… we both registered a while back so it’s only natural that we would be awaiting a sponsorship… you could be setting yourself up for a big disappointment if you get too happy now.</p>

<p>hehe we should have a bet on who will get in.</p>

<p>ivy-transfer, i’m reasonably sure you’ve been admitted. though i guess you have to wait a week to find out for sure…</p>

<p>What’s a sponsorship?</p>

<p>it basically dictates that there is a faculty or staff member who supports and/or acknowledges us and brings us into the stanford e-mail system… ivytransfer and i are still not sponsored… last year the kids who got in affirmed their acceptance by the fact that they were sponsored. therefore we are still both not in. although it does says our accounts exist–they are also “inactive.”</p>

<p>you should try to be less cocky about yourself I.T.</p>

<p>from what i can tell, the only thing that is a good sign of whether you got in or not is the FIRST link on this webpage: <a href=“https://sunetid.stanford.edu/main/SUNetIdApp/CreateApp[/url]”>https://sunetid.stanford.edu/main/SUNetIdApp/CreateApp&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

<p>if you put in your 8-digit Stanford number, and you get something other than the standard “you’re not in the system” message, then you are accepted. otherwise… pretty much everything is meaningless.</p>

<p>yeah-- just some of us don’t have the 8-digit stanford number…</p>
