National College Match - 2009-2010

<p>For the Yale ID, apparently they send it to you in an email. Hopefully it’s soon or I won’t be able to send my stuff.</p>

<p>Finalist!</p>

<p>quick question though, for brown it didn’t mention about having commonapp finished. do they still want us to fill out the common app for brown?</p>

<p>@Zens: im not international, but i now exactly how you feel! i dunno what im going tod do with myself now…too much free time!!! :p</p>

<p>get to college: i signed up, but its telling me i have to upgrade to plus if i want to send any faxes</p>

<p>@bklee1</p>

<p>According to [Brown</a> Admission: Supplements](<a href=“Undergraduate Admission | Brown University”>Undergraduate Admission | Brown University), we only fill out Common App for regular decision. So if you ranked Brown, there is no need.</p>

<p>congrats everyone!
we should start a facebook group for finalists :)</p>

<p>Finalist!!!</p>

<p>@natim1 - I don’t understand that - I have used this for years now and have never upgraded to PLUS - and do not pay 1 dime!!!
The only advantage I can see to PLUS is that you get a local FAX - that never bothered me! Anyone sending ME a fax just has to dial the number I give them!</p>

<p>CSS Business/Farm Supplement provided by Yale’s Financial Cover sheet is for 2009-10 Year. Rice’s cover sheet says that it will be provided when I finish my CSS Profile. I finished it, and I don’t get any link leading to the Supplement. Eh?</p>

<p>hey someone asked previously about finding out if we get css waivers.
i was wondering myself, so i checked the link they gave in that css email they sent out.
it says that they will let us know whose fees they’re going to spot late august.</p>

<p>ok, other non-finalists: for QB app forwarding for RD to the colleges that accept it, how exactly does it work? Do i need to email the QB staff and ask them? </p>

<p>one good thing about this:) a lot of the colleges do still waive app fees, even for non-finalists…silver lining i guess!</p>

<p>Finalist yayyyyy :)</p>

<p>NYspinner, do you mean late october?</p>

<p>woot finalist! its a small relief considering how many there will be.</p>

<p>Just sent out my test scores online :D; now the financial documents and the Columbia/Princeton applications as well as the financial documents which I will send tomorrow, except for Yale because I don’t have my ID yet. :D:D:D So happy right now! I sent all my test scores because on the ACT, I got a 34 on the reading the first time but a 29 the second time and my first writing was better than my second. I hope they look at the details and not just the composite score.</p>

<p>How do you get your yale ID?</p>

<p>hello! i’m one of the fortunate people to be picked as a finalist.
and now i’m here to a few questions, because this stuff is so confusing…</p>

<ol>
<li>does official score report (for the ACT and SAT scores) mean that it can only be sent by collegeboard and not by the guidance counselors?</li>
<li>do the college supplements have to be AT the school by nov. 2 or does it just have to be postmarked by nov. 2?</li>
<li>what is rush reporting? and why is it so bad that questbridge really doesn’t want people to do it?</li>
<li>from nov-dec am i allowed to send in regular decision stuff for the same partner schools that i ranked?</li>
</ol>

<p>Hey guys, this might be a dumb question, but bear with me. :,D (Congrats to all the finalists by the way~!)</p>

<p>So, I ranked Princeton on a whim because it was nonbinding and… well… it’s Princeton, however now after looking through the requirements for admission, I’m realizing that I don’t have everything they’re asking for - namely the SAT II subject tests.</p>

<p>EVERYONE in my state takes the ACT as opposed to the SAT, so I really have no plans to take the subject tests as none of the other schools I’m applying to require them. Therefore, I was just considering not submitting the supplemental materials to Princeton and being “disqualified” from their match, as I’m guessing I would be disqualified anyway for not having the necessary scores.</p>

<p>But I’m wondering… is that allowed? And will it affect my potential matches at the other universities I ranked? I don’t want a big scary QuestBridge monster knocking on my door saying I’m disqualified from the whole process because I backed out of applying to one of the schools I ranked…</p>

<p>candycorn:</p>

<p>1) yes. have it sent officially by collegeboard.
2) i’m sure it has to be postmarked by nov 2.
3) rush reporting costs a heck of a whole lot more money to send scores. this isn’t necessary for the colleges as reg sending is fine for them so they’re advising you not to waste your money.</p>

<p>FINALIST!</p>

<p>But even better, my guidance counselor just told me to “only go through him for this stuff, alright?” meaning that he will circumvent all the $20 transcript/form fees for me! WOW WOW WOW! Finalist and $20-$80 saved!</p>
