@PoopFap congratulations! when did you submit your application?
@qqqqqqqqqqqqq October 31st
I applied to umass Amherst as a transfer on February 24th but my high school transcript was just received and my application is now complete and under review. I was accepted to Amherst fall 2016 but I chose to go to uconn instead. I had very good grades in high school and high sat scores. I was very involved and had a good gpa. However, at uconn I was going through a hard time and failed a class which resulted in a low gpa. Do you think Amherst might accept me again despite this or am I truly screwed☹️
@transfer332 Two weeks after you get the notice in Spire. It is confusing to say the least. Some of the info refers to two weeks after receiving your “packet” or something like that, as if it is supposed to come in the mail. That was probably the old system. I just assumed worst case and that it was the Spire notice date and got it in within those two weeks. So, pay attention to Spire.
See you in the fall @PoopFap. Congrats!
I got accepted today on Spire. I’m stressed because I’m waiting for another school and not sure if I will hear back by the time I have to put my deposit down for Umass. Nonetheless, I’m glad I got in!
Just go to accepted from an in state community college through masstranfer. My major says “PR - School of Management”. Does anyone know what the PR stands for?
@tranferumass321 public relations?
@transfer332 congrats! did you submit through mass transfer too?
Are decisions going out all day today? My application still says complete. If I haven’t heard by now does that mean I won’t know by today?
@transfer332 You can call and pressure them.
I don’t think so. I don’t think that is a hard dead line on their end. Hang in there. It is nerve wracking.
PS. I read somewhere that Spire decisions go out “daily”. To me that means it could be today.
Puerto Rico? Did you apply to an international program? UMASS Isenberg has a relationship with them. http://stockbridge.cns.umass.edu/connections-international-opportunities-current-opportunities/puerto-rico Why on earth do they use stupid acronyms that no one knows what it means? I don’t think it is Public Relations- that is another program. I would look around Spire for explanation. I think mine said something about Honors there. I will check.
@Transfer529 My application says complete too and it was processed mid march. And I think it’s just the regular decision high school senior applicants that are hearing back today.
I don’t think so. I don’t think that is a hard dead line on their end. Hang in there. It is nerve wracking.
Has anyone who has been accepted see Spire housing tab come up yet?
If my application says “Your application is complete and is under review. If, during this review, a counselor determines that we need additional information in order to make an admission decision, we will contact you soon.”
Does that mean it is ‘complete’ or ‘under review’?
Just go th accepted! From UMD 3.3 GPA
Ugh so annoyed I still haven’t heard back - applied mid march…
