***Stanford Class of 2019 Applicant Discussion***

With the intellectual vitality essay, would music count?

@sciencer Depends on what you say about music

Hey, guys!

I recently checked the status of Stanford’s credential, and it says that my application fee has not been processed yet; however, I paid for it on the same day I submitted my application. Anyone else experiencing this?

I’m very worried about this, because Stanford specifically states that they will not review one’s application until the application fee has been paid. What should I do?

Someone reply, please.
Thank you!

Call them and ask for help, it may not be processed on their website yet.

@Visionary123‌ I would contact the admissions office because the app fee should have been processed when you applied.

Thank you so much for your reply, @stahboy‌! I think the problem might be in that I originally requested a fee waiver in my application, but then decided to pay for the fee myself. I’m going to contact the Office of Undergraduate Admission tomorrow, and make sure they have received the payment. Thank you, again.

@Visionary123‌ no problem!

@visionary123 As I understand, that just takes a while to clear. Don’t worry about it, but if it doesn’t change soon, it’s worth giving them a call.

Hi guys,
I had a question.
I sent my recent ACT score to Stanford. However, I took one last year(pathetic score) and put stanfords name, where I could send my scores for free.
So do I need to submit it again this year ?
Thanks alot

@PCMguy no you don’t have to send it again. Free score reports count! But to make sure you could email them to see if the test was taken too far back, but otherwise it should be fine.

@stahboy‌ thanks a lot! Will surely do

Thanks for your respective answers @nagintapls‌ and @SadOnion‌ - I really appreciate them! :slight_smile:

Fortunately, I contacted the Office of Undergraduate Admission, and my payment has been processed already. :slight_smile:

I can’t believe we have to wait until April 1 to get our decisions. Ugh

Hey,

I submitted my Stanford application on 1st Jan and was wondering, how long does it take to get an application submission confirmation email from the admissions office?

It’s not mid March anymore? Thought I read that somewhere…

The website says April 1. I wish it was mid March haha!

Stanford traditionally sends out decisions the day after the Ivy League releases their decisions. Last year Stanford sent out decision emails at 3:00 pm pacific time on Friday, March 28th.

I know! The waiting is gonna kill me, @kaufman123‌.
