Check back here tomorrow. Peace!
for freshman on the quarter system, they are only looking at your first quarter grades right?
@rolyat-Noc Theyâre going to be looking at all college grades that you have. Deciding whether or not to accept someone based on just 1/12 of the courses needed to get a college degree doesnât tell them much at all. Thatâs why they still want to see your high school grades and standardized test scores.
Theyâre also going to be putting more weight on more difficult courses that youâve taken. Even if youâve gotten a very respectable GPA, it doesnât tell the admissions office how youâll do throughout college if you only took the easy A core classes that a lot of freshmen take their first quarter/semester at college.
In short, theyâre going to evaluate your candidacy based on everything they have on you that they deem to be relevant to the admissions process. Hope that answers your question.
@2021wdl An advisor from Vanderbilt
@juliahorses17 i hope so
Are we thinking itâs gonna be today?
doubt it - my anxiety has gone through the roof already
After all this time and anxiety, I really am just at a point where I want an answer so badly. If itâs a denial, itâs a denial⊠but I need to know that already!
will check status at 5:15 and 6⊠if not, my stress will eat me through the weekend
my counselor gave me the generic response that theyâre released on a rolling basis.
Did u all see any updates in your portal?
Nothing @chlom
@chlom my portal has looked exactly the same since 02/29/20
@SatanFlower69 Iâve seen you on multiple threads hope you are doing well!! Howâs your acceptances looking??
I was expecting Vandy to come out before Georgetown. Still havenât heard from either. And I really just donât feel like waiting thorugh this weekend. Iâm sure Iâm not alone
@mkmk29 Tired of waiting! lol Im ok though. So far accepted to UCB, UCD, UCSC and SFSU. Rejected to UNC CH and University of Richmond. Planning to attend UCD. Waiting on UCSD, Duke, Georgetown, Vanderbilt and Stanford - none of which are likely, just need confirmation so I can move forward. How about yourself?
I am in the exact same position and so frustrated. Thought Vandy would come out before Georgetown
If decisions are not released at 6:00, do you guys believe there is a possibility that they release them on a weekend?
I donât think any previous threads have noted weekend acceptances. But its possible, I only browsed a couple pages in the last three years.
@SatanFlower69 congrats on UCB and UCD!! Thatâs an amazing school and your other acceptances are impressive as well. So far I have only heard back from UMich, UNC and Northwestern and have been fortunate to get into all of them!
