Occidental College

Anyone apply as a transfer to OXY for fall 08? Has anyone heard anything yet? Do sophomore transfers usually get requests for spring grades?

sup, i applied for transfer. i still haven't heard anything I applied as an English major. They did, however, send like a little postcard thing saying my application was complete like a month and a half ago haha.

what's your major?

I applied for Psychology but since I'm a sophomore transfer I'm pretty sure I will be asked for my spring grades

No I'm pretty sure they said mid to late may when I visited a few weeks ago. lreds4life--I talked to one of the admission deans and she said spring grade request is a possibility but it sounded less formal than the USC one. i.e. your professor can e-mail them the grades.
