KB.. for transfers on-campus housing is not guaranteed. I email them yesterday and they told me last year, only 50 transfers got there campus house out of 350 people
by the way, you can still sign up(wait-list) for housing without admitted status

Yea that's why i'm trying to sign a lease off campus but I can't do that until I know if I got in. I'm surprised even 50 got housing last year. My friend told me that I was pretty much guaranteed NOT to have on campus housing so I've been trying to plan accordingly.

If you don't mind my asking, what was your gpa etc? where are you transferring from? I wonder if it is just random of those who have found out and those who haven't..

I go to TCC as well, and I think that is the key factor. I think everyone who has been accepted so far comes from a VCCS school. Anyone here been accepted from a 4 year school yet?

Yes, I was accepted, and if you mean by only having the current program box w/o the transfer evaluation, then yes as well. My transfer evaluation only came in within the last two weeks.

I'm a major in biology and I applied quite late. I want to say it was on the day before the deadline. I know, I know -- horrible! But like I said, they've had me updated as accepted since the 30th. For what it's worth, I'm transferring in from a VCCS school.

Hmm, yeah they made it pretty clear to me that Community College kids got priority. I have a feeling at this point that I'll be applying again next year. What's worse is I can't afford an apartment at the moment.

Well I called admissions today and all they said was it was based on rolling admissions as to when they review your application is when they will notify you of acceptance. It is NOT based on when you applied, and I'm not even sure if it is based on the college you applied to but I forgot to ask that one...

kin, you said that you could still sign up for housing(waiting list) without admitted status, how can you do that? I tried looking on the site but no luck.
