Transfer Applicants: Files Still Incomplete?

<p>Just wondering, because my stuff is still coming up as incomplete.</p>

<p>Oh, and for anyone applying for aid: did they receive your CSS Profile yet? :P</p>

<p>I haven’t been contacted by anyone concerning these materials, but I’m trying not to take that as a bad sign. I did mail everything rather close to the deadline…Oh, Brown, you are so slow. I guess I can forgive you if you let me in. :D</p>

<p>I haven't received anything about my application yet, but I do know that the deadline for transfer applications has been moved to April 1.</p>

<p>Hmm - maybe the applicants (barring us of course) were so bad they felt we needed more competition</p>

<p>Haha, no I actually think they received a lot more freshman applications, because they do not have a separate transfer admissions committee-the same people who do freshman admissions do transfer admissions-I hope that is more of the case. Good luck anyway!</p>

<p>Actually, someone on this board mentioned that there IS a separate committee for transfer evaluation. Hmm. It is a mystery.</p>

<p>Yes, also if they really got so many freshman apps this year that they were overwhelmed -why would they extend the deadline so as to get more transfer apps?</p>

<p>Ok how about this, you know how the application was suppose to be available in mid-Dec, but due to changes in financial aid they printed new applications that were not distributed until early Jan, possibly they changed the deadline to give them more time for something. Since the deadline has been moved back maybe the decisions will be made at a later date as well. I just love how we're trying to speculate what's goin on. If you already have your app sent in, what's the problem. I think we should all just relax, and not try to decode something that may not be that significant.</p>

<p>Haha, yeah, seriously.</p>

<p>I sort've assumed it was for people to RE-send stuff "in time" in case Brown lost all of their files. XD</p>

<p>OH MY GAWRD. Just say "complete" already!</p>

<p>heh, I just checked for the first time in awhile -- they have my college transcript! Hopefully, they'll stop and just base their decision off that ;)</p>

<p>Still missing:
Both college recs
Hs rec/tran
deans letter
form 1A (sent in the same gd envelope)
personal statement (ditto)</p>

<p>All sent 30+ days ago</p>

<p>Any news on the financial aid situation?</p>

<p>For me, they're missing everything . . .</p>

<p>Same here, still missing everything...</p>

<p>including my CSS Profile, which I sent way in advance. Curiously enough, they have my FAFSA, which I sent the same day as the CSS? Whatever.</p>

<p>How do you check the status of your app?</p>

<p>After Brown receives Form 1 of the transfer application from you, they activate your file. Then they send you a confirmation letter, which should include your username (Net ID) and password. You use this information to log into Brown's website to check your app status, as well as change your email address and look up your finaid app status (if you applied for finaid, that is).</p>

<p>Here's the link for checking your app status:

<p>Wheeeee.</p>
