My parents had me to do it since it has a better name recognition when looking for jobs, especially as an intl student, everything becomes kinda up in the air… if corona didn’t happen I would not hesitate at all, but with all the political conflicts their concern is pretty legit… and I just don’t feel like I’m totally committed to either one… Ah this process do be frustrating plz just reject me so I don’t need to worry about anything smh
so i guess nobody else has gotten off… it really is over I guess now
has anybody called the admissions office?
I really don‘t think the process is over yet
@Perecival Just got an update from the admissions office. Waitlist is being extended until mid-July.
Still going strong!
@BobbyMaye My counselor called the AO, the process is not over yet by far. Idk where the other guy got his information.
@34dr5 How were you informed that the waitlist is being extended until mid-July?
@madlad that you for the update!
@34dr5 yeah, how were you notified about the waitlist extension? Was it through your own email or phone call?
ahhh what is happening
@BobbyMaye @coffee2020 Before I made the post, I called the admissions office at Brown. When I asked the person who picked up the phone are there any current updates to the waitlist she mentioned that Brown decided to extend the waitlist deadline to mid-July (I wasn’t given an exact date).
wow interesting, well anyway above all I hope you all are happy about where you’ve committed to and are doing well during this time!
Does anyone know if this extension also applies to the transfer waitlist?
Just wanted to say that I turned down my waitlist offer (got in last week) to stay at my current school. Hoping that you guys will hear great news soon!
I really think there could be a wave sometime today. Friday a week after they said they’d say admissions would first start coming out (look how that turned out) idk I just want to get this process over with
Have you received anything yet?
I got admitted off the waitlist yesterday (Thursday) at around 11:28 am PST. I’ve been a long time lurker on this thread and I finally created an account because nobody else on this thread seemed to say anything about getting off yesterday. Feel free to ask any questions, I’ll answer to the best of my ability. I wish you all of the best of luck!
@oddrawing Congrats dude and I wish you luck at Brown! What are the stats that you got you admitted from the waitlist? (you don’t have to share if you don’t feel comfortable ofc)
@34dr5 Thank you! I have a 4.0 unweighted and a 35 on the ACT. I don’t particularly think my stats had much to do with me being admitted off the waiting list as much as the fact that I am a linguistics concentrator and it has seemed to be a rather undersubscribed field.
Congrats! Do you mind sharing what if anything you did, i.e. loci, any supplemental contact or submissions and how you were notified. Thank you and best of luck!
