transfers!!

<p>Anyone else anxious!? I check my email like a maniac...even though I know the notification date is <em>by May 15</em>, but I have a feeling that we'll find out sooner. Ahhhh I want to know NOW!</p>

<p>Me too. In the transfer forum, someone posted that they would let us know by the end of April, but I just can’t believe that.</p>

<p>Haha, definitely there. Not sure if they actually email you though, I thought you just had to keep checking the status check site they sent you. I feel like it’s gonna be soonish though, based off what a friend from last year told me.
Also, maybe it’s just a glitch, but when I click on admission requirements…all I get is a blank sheet now…which could either mean they’re close to deciding, or that something went terribly wrong… >.<
Either way, definitely anxious.</p>

<p>^Yea that is what triggered my anxiousness. That blank page says so much! I think it’s because they’re going through each app right now.</p>

<p>dml, what did your friend say from last year?</p>

<p>He said he got his decision to Rice way earlier than the other schools he applied to, around the middle of April, I think. I’d guess decisions are no more than a week or two away for us…</p>

<p>Whoaaaaaaaaa. That’s really exciting. I can’t wait.</p>

<p>~~~~~ so it appears the page is no longer blank. I can’t recall if it had an admission status line before but it seems to now.</p>

<p>It was there before.</p>

<p>Has anyone heard anything yet?</p>

<p>Nah. Hopefully soon though.</p>

<p>Me neither. Either way, April is almost over!!</p>

<p>Decisions are up online!!! Also got an email with mine.</p>

<p>I’m so excited! I thought I would be rejected for sure. Is anyone looking to visit Rice any time soon?</p>

<p>Most students have gone, or are finishing up finals and are leaving soon - (or are moving into a cool duplex a few blocks from campus and starting their cool new full-time research assistant job - yeah!!!), so the campus will be very, very quiet. You may only see buildings…</p>

<p>Heard from Rice today,
got this nice blue brochure/envelope thing with the acceptance letter, and financial aid information, transfer credit information etc.
I’m pretty happy -.^</p>

<p>I had just finished a test at university, so coming back I wasn’t expecting to hear from Rice (until May 15), Mom showed me the fedex parcel from Rice, and I was like :O</p>

<p>BTW, I’m transferring from University College London, I’m a US citizen, but born and raised in England. I’m doing Mech engineering at Rice. </p>

<p>Good luck everyone.</p>

<p>What are you guys going to do about the lack of housing?</p>

<p>Search for an apartment near campus, and hope that enough freshman don’t show up that a room opens up for me on campus :P. Even if not though, there are still lots of places right next to campus to stay, and I think most Rice students take at least one year off campus.</p>
