<p>Is anyone on here a transfer? And if so, have you heard anything yet? I suppose that since I'm in California that mine would come a few days later...but nothing so far...</p>
<p>The Sarah Lawrence website just says we'll be notified "sometime in April". I'm pretty sure someone on CC called the admissions office and they said we wouldn't know until maybe the first week of May.</p>
<p>Elch, I'm a hopeful transfer from California as well, and I'm freaking out.</p>
<p>haha i wouldn't say that I'm freaking out necessarily...just think about it every second of the day!! lol and we will be the very last to find out...its killing me!!! good luck to you anyways. let me know what happens =)</p>
<p>Hey fellow transfer hopefuls --</p>
<p>What other colleges are y'all considering? So far I've gotten accepted to Hendrix, Whitman, and Centre, and I'm waiting to hear from SLC (obviously), Kenyon, Connecticut College and Skidmore. Also, why are you transferring from your current school? My biggest reason is lack of academic rigor. Good luck to all of you -- I just thought that maybe some conversation would make us less nervous. :)</p>
<p>well...i actually only applied to SLC this semester. I go to a community college because of lack of funds in my family. I absolutely am in love with SLC but I did plan to apply to other schools...just not this soon. Some family issues made transfering sooner much more feisable (sp?). Anyways...my heart is set on SLC. I really want to transfer because my school, like yours pretzelbreaker, has a serious lack of academic rigor. I'm crossing my fingers for SLC though... :)</p>
<p>I only applied to SLC and USC. I know they're like polar opposites, but I think I would like either one. It's really just a matter of stay in California, or move really far away.</p>
<p>you guys heard anything yet? i'm so anxious...</p>
<p>Haven't heard anything. I called the admissions office yesterday and they said they haven't finished making decisions yet.</p>
<p>did they give you any time estimate as to when they will sent letters out?</p>
<p>I just got off the phone with them, they said they're either sending them out today or Monday.</p>
<p>I just got an acceptance e-mail!</p>
<p>It said I should be expecting the big envelope very soon.</p>
<p>congrats calvinrm! =)</p>
<p>I didn't get an email, but my MySLC status says "Congratulations! By now you should have received your acceptance package..." blahblahblah. I had pretty much written off SLC, I already sent my deposit in to Whitman because I felt like it was a better fit, but man ... this is confusing.</p>
<p>Ugh the envelope didn't come today. I need my finaid package like now.</p>
<p>Did they say they were going to send the finaid with your package? I'm going to call them tomorrow -- I mean, I already sent a deposit somewhere else because they refused to let me know early. I kind of need to know finaid stuff to move forward before the weekend; I'm tired of this waiting game. Hopefully they'll tell me something over the phone or fax it over. If they do, I'll post. Good luck!</p>
<p>rejected! =( ...its okay though. </p>
<p>i probably wouldnt have gone anyways since they sook soooo long to make decisions and give out finaid info. im with oou pretzelbreaker, this waiting game definitely sucked. good luck to you guys! =)</p>
<p>Sorry to hear that, phantom. Hope things work out for you.</p>
<p>Got the package today. 32k in gift aid, 3k loan, and a work study. Not a bad deal, and it makes it only 4k more than Whitman, the school at which I have currently accepted a place. I'm so confused. I've never visited SLC, and now there's no point because there aren't any students there. Guess I need to find out about my transfer credits ... oh dear. :(</p>
<p>Wow nice package. I got mine today, 30,500 in gift aid, 3,500 is loans and 1,800 in work study. It's a lot better than I was expecting! I'm going to attend in the fall.</p>
<p>And I'm sorry to hear that phantombf. Good luck at whatever school you decide to attend.</p>
<p>Calvin -- I'm starting to consider SLC more and more. As a theatre/writing kinda girl, it just seems like such a great opportunity. I guess I'm just a little bit concerned about the reputation SLC has for being a community of intensely liberal, cynical, pessimistic, pot-smoking kids who aren't much for social interaction. I'm afraid people are going to be very judgmental of me since I'm not a "hipster" and I don't do drugs (no huge moral objection, just don't do it). Have you visited? Would I be a total outcast if I wore a polo that was -- god forbid -- pink? I don't want to have to change who I am (even something as "trivial" as things I like to wear) for the school I'm attending. If SLC is as open minded as they say they are, it shouldn't be an issue, but I fear otherwise. </p>
<p>What's your experience with that sort of thing there? Do you have any concerns about fitting in? As transfers, I guess it's normal for us to be paranoid.</p>
