<p>Deferred - Manual Review Req</p>
<p>WHAT IN THE )<em>^)(&#T)</em>&@!RT)@<em>R)</em>#$)&#$ DOES THAT MEAN?!?!?!</p>
<p>how in the FFFFFFF did i get deferred????</p>
<p>this is extremely disconcerting, demorializing, and suicide-provoking</p>
<p>in any case, can someone explain in step-by-step detail what to do now?</p>
<p>quickly, if possible</p>
<p>Calm down... all it means is that a human is going to look at your application now (as in, you weren't in the top 2% of applicants that were automatically admitted by the computer).</p>
<p>Virtually everyone gets that message once their apps are processed... you'll get a decision once they look at your application which could be in a matter of days depending on how good your stats are.</p>
<p>You don't need to be demoralized or take any action. Your admission will come soon enough... just RELAX!</p>
<p>You should have checked this website, before asking it here.</p>
<p>and if you applied to the college of business, you will automatically be deffered. every business applicant needs to have his application manually reviewed.</p>
<p>what a relief</p>
<p>ps, i found the other thread on this website about the "deferred"</p>
<p>well, turns out i actually got accepted, whoo hoo!</p>
<p>ok no more fun, back to work</p>
<p>I was also deferred to manual review 3 days ago for Business. Does your testing scores and overall record determine how long it will take for them to review your application or when they will actually select your application to review? Also what do y'all think of my chances:
ACT 33 (36m 32e 32s 28r), 3.82 GPA Weighted, rank 99/810, a nice amount of awards, handful of extracurriculars but good ones. A very strong essay. Oh yea, can't forget Asian.
thanks!</p>
<p>you basically ARE me</p>
<p>3.87 gpa, 2050 SAT, high math, low reading, etc etc
good ECs but not many, lol... and Asian, of course</p>
<p>i sent my stuff in 12/03 and got a reply today (12/22) got the "deferred" thing about a week ago</p>
<p>ps, the deferred thing just means you are currently under review. it's "fake deferred," essentially</p>
<p>thanks, the problem with my application is that they put my official transcript in a DIFFERENT folder just because the middle names were different on my transcript and application, just one letter..... My application file was delayed from being complete for like 3 WEEKS before I had the nerve to call and ask what was going on. I also bounced my idea off of them that maybe my transcript was in a differnt file because of the middle name difference. I was right!! I got "application completed" on the 20th and deferred the next day. I'm just wondering since this is like rush hour at the admissions office how long its gonna take for me to get an answer. I truly believe I should be able to get in but my main worry is space. Business is gonna fill up FAST. Also if I somehow get rejected... I gotta apply to UIC then before their deadline comes along.</p>
<p>Thanks kenneth.</p>
