Waitlisters Unite!

<p>Rubin95 when did you receive the confirmation letter? I sent one to brown as well but have not received confirmation</p>

<p>Letter from Brown that it had received S’s letter arrived Monday May 4</p>

<p>what do the people who got waitlisted have on their sats?</p>

<p>S has 730V/800M/780W. SAT2 -3 800s. 99.2 avg. Salutatorian - yet not good enough for Brown!</p>

<p>

Students with near-perfect grades are a dime a dozen, unfortunately. Remember that in selective admissions, and especially at Brown, academics are only half the picture.</p>

<p>I’m valedectorian, 760M/800CR/800W, with high 700’s in my SAT II’s and 4.0 gpa. Acceptance is way more than just scores haha</p>

<p>Very true. 2320 SAT, Salu, etc.</p>

<p>Good thing it’s WAY more than scores haha. :stuck_out_tongue:
2030 SAT FTW.</p>

<p>Yesss… Sal, 2330, 3.95, 2350 SAT II, some national EC’s… But nope, not good enough for Brown apparently? Oh well, I’d take Columbia/NYC any day. :D</p>

<p>can anybody tell me when the decisions for waitlisters will be available?
I cant seem to find it on their website.</p>

<p>thank you</p>

<p>If you’ve been admitted off the waitlist you’ll get a call from an admissions officer.</p>

<p>Valedictorian here with 2340 SAT score, 800 Math 2, 800 US History, 790 Chemistry, 780 Biology…4.6 GPA (weighted), 4.0 (unweighted)… myriad of ECs most of which I held officer positions…etc. Acceptances at Ivy league schools is pretty much a crapshoot. GOOD LUCK EVERYONE!</p>

<p>so does anyone know if brown will utilize the waitlist this year?</p>

<p>Just out of curiosity, can you all log onto this website: [Welcome</a> to the Brown University Class of 2014!](<a href=“Undergraduate Admission | Brown University”>Undergraduate Admission | Brown University) ? I know it’s for admitted students but today I realized that I could access it. Anyone else?</p>

<p>i typed in a bogus name and password and could reach the class of 2014 page. it doesn’t mean anything.</p>

<p>Thanks BartleDoo. I didn’t even think of using a fake name/email. I guess it was short-lived hope haha.</p>

<p>I’ve been emailing my regional admissions officer and recently asked her about the waitlist. She replied: “We have not finalized our waitlist plans yet, but we did have a very high response rate this year from admitted students, so I don’t know how much we will really be able to do off the wait list. We’ll know better at the end of this week.”</p>

<p>Doesn’t sound very hopeful to me. Sigh.</p>

<p>^ Omg. I’m going to die if they decide not to take anyone!</p>

<p>^Lol. Same here.</p>

<p>Any more word on the status of the waitlisted applicants?</p>
