National College Match - 2009-2010

<p>I couldn’t just use the scores on my transcript because, for some reason, my transcript doesn’t have a place for SAT subject test scores.</p>

<p>And for the CSS fee waivers, we have to hand out flyers and stuff. Do we just do that whenever we want to? Do we need to tell them where we’re doing it or when?</p>

<p>I thought I was doing fine but just had a scary thought. The deadline for turning in all additional material is November 2, but does that mean everything must be sent in by the 1st before the 12:00 a.m. on the 2nd? Or do materials have to be postmarked by the 2nd?</p>

<p>Please help. Thank you.</p>

<p>@Crystal91: Yeah but can you still do it after you submit the 1st time? Someone told me that if you send one version you can’t create any more afterwards.</p>

<p>julia: yes, but you ahve to make whats called another “version” of it. google it!</p>

<p>When they say the deadline is Nov. 2, can we still turn stuff in on Nov. 2? If yes, then up to what time can we still turn stuff in? Thanks.</p>

<p>november 2nd, 11:59 pm
(pacific?) idk</p>

<p>Also, if I ranked non binding colleges, can I still get out of the match process, and just do MIT EA through QB and RD for the other colleges?</p>

<p>HEY GUYS: so i took a local college class last year…and need to send in that grade to colleges…</p>

<p>but this slow college takes 10 BUSINESS DAYS to process a transcript request. this means that the transcript from the colleges will get to the QB schools prob. by middle of November.</p>

<p>WHAT DO I DO?! ■■■, ghhhh</p>

<p>^mine too, tell ur college its an emergency, try to get it postmarked by nov 2</p>

<p>Hey everyone! Only 3 more days and we’ll be FREEEE for a month :)</p>

<p>So I just have a quick and easy question</p>

<p>On the CSS PROFILE theres a question that asks:</p>

<p>“At any time during 2008 or 2009 did your parents receive benefits from any of the following federal benefit programs: SSI, Food Stamps, free or reduced price lunch, TANF, or WIC?”</p>

<p>If I receive reduced price lunch @ school, does that mean I would put yes for this? Just asking because it refers to “parents” and not the student.</p>

<p>Also, do the medical and dental expenses include the money my parents pay each month for their medicine?</p>

<p>tomjones, nah. because i have the mail my transcript request forms to them. they don’t even take fax.</p>

<p>so 2-3 days to the colleges, 10 business* days to process, and THEN the QB schools get it…and they dont work on weekends. ■■■. ugh…</p>

<p>i hope its not a HUGE problem, i indicated that i took this class on my app already…</p>

<p>so last night, i emailed all 4 of my QB schools. and guess what? stanford just emailed me back saying that they WON’T be able to answer my question due to the great volume of questions that they get (automated message).</p>

<p>■■■. ugh.</p>

<p>sinceredschick…yes to both questions</p>

<p>I got my portal ID for UPenn this morning! Yay!</p>

<p>QUESTIONS: Is there any way that I could back out of one of my ranked schools at this point? Maybe withdraw my QB application from them? If not, what is the likelihood of me getting matched to a school I ranked 7 or 8?</p>

<p>The likelihood of getting matched at any school depends on you and the school, but generally speaking it is the same down your list. Colleges don’t know or care who or where you ranked others - the process is independent of that. Ranking is for YOU.</p>

<p>I have a few questions:</p>

<p>1) I only took the ACTs once and got a 29. Since its below average at Stanford and Princeton, I didn’t send it to them since its not required. I know they emphasize wanting to see ALL scores. Should I bother sending them or is it too late?</p>

<p>2)The common app deadline is Nov. 1st but the QB deadline for everything is Nov. 2nd. Common app HAS to be in by the end of tomorrow, right?</p>

<p>thankss!</p>

<p>raechelli,</p>

<p>1) I wouldn’t send the ACT - they have no way of knowing you took the test unless your school lists it on your transcript - my daughter’s school lists all scores on transcripts unless you ask them to remove them, so be careful with this.</p>

<p>2) I’m not sure about this answer, but I’d err on the side of getting it in 11/1.</p>

<p>I have not received my Penn portal ID yet. What’s wrong? Penn is my fifth ranked college.</p>
