National College Match - 2009-2010

<p>Email and maybe a phone call (at least that’s what happened last year for a few of the people who got matched)</p>

<p>I wish I had a time machine so I could fast-forward to Dec. 1st!!!</p>

<p>16 days= so close yet so far</p>

<p>ahahha no…at least I wanna enjoy my thanksgiving break and then to hear the cruel truth…>"<</p>

<p>I’m not putting to much hope on the match round…</p>

<p>I believe my life will be disastrous right after Dec. 1st…all the rush in Regular Decision…</p>

<p>so Princeton and STanford still have not received my teacher eval 2…im screwed for Match…=[=[[[</p>

<p>@crystal: How did you check the status of your application for Emory?</p>

<p>Aceking, Stanford JUST received my SAT scores. Maybe they got processed today.</p>

<p>Do we send in AP scores now, after admission, or should I already have? (to my match schools)
How do you do this?</p>

<p>You don’t need to send in AP scores until you get accepted.</p>

<p>Has anyone received a letter from Brown recently?</p>

<p>Do you think being a Questbridge Finalist will help boost my chances for non-QB schools?</p>

<p>@Ju_liaa</p>

<p>I don’t think we should worry about Brown (or any other colleges) information arriving late. I once requested U of Washington’s info in Sophomore year, I got it like two weeks ago :P</p>

<p>Would a late teacher rec be counted against me in their decisions?</p>

<p>@chiyoske: Oh i know, I’m just wondering if other people have received stuff. I know that that’s been the case with some school…where some people get the information and others don’t.</p>

<p>15 more days.</p>

<p>I NEED to detach myself from the QB schools and start regular apps…</p>

<p>this seems so bad.
i haven’t gotten any financial letters from princeton yet.
you know how all the financial stuff was due a while ago…
and princeton said they would send everything in early november,
what if i didn’t get anything!
someone please respond to me!
i’m freakin out here…
i think my chances are gone though… because i didn’t do anything for princeton financial aid yet…</p>

<p>also. one more thing,
for upenn, it says if applying regular decision as a finalist, we have to send in
• Penn supplement to the Common App or Universal App
• Official transcripts
• Official test score reports
• Mid-year school report
• Penn Financial Aid Supplement
• CSS PROFILE
• FAFSA
• W2s, Federal Tax Returns
but what if we already sent all those during the questbridge finalist process?..
that goes for the other regular decision colleges as well…</p>

<p>someone please answer my two concerns, it will be greatly appreciated!
if my question is too hard to understand, please inform me!</p>

<p>okay. so i just got the pdf file to the princeton financial aid supplement.
what the heck! am i allowed to send it tomorrow? i’m screwed.
i heard the due date is today. november 16th. what do i do… someone comfort me. haha.
do you think it would be okay to fax it on november 17th?!.. what the heck…</p>

<p>thanks so much driscol~ haha i feel better now.</p>

<p>If we **receive the PFAA<a href=“and,%20if%20required,%20the%20Non-custodial%20Parent’s%20Form”>/B</a> by November 16, and you are matched with Princeton, a financial aid letter will accompany the mailing from the Admissions Office.</p>

<p>I’m sure you’ll be fine. Princeton actually extended the “due date” to today. Just calm down, fill it out, and either email it to them or fax it. You should have already completed the CSS Profile so it shouldn’t take long at all, and I’m sure Princeton will accept it 1 or 2 days late if you cannot get it out by today. It doesn’t sound like Nov. 16 is the deadline, just kind of like an early financial aid letter.</p>

<p>I have like 15 essays to write. In a month, maybe a month and a half. An extremely busy month and a half. So why are my only open windows Facebook and CC?</p>

<p>just in case i don’t get matched, i am going to apply at my questbridge schools with regular decision.
on the regular decision table for princeton ([QuestBridge</a> National College Match - Regular Decision Table](<a href=“http://www.questbridge.org/students/post_match.html#s1q11]QuestBridge”>http://www.questbridge.org/students/post_match.html#s1q11)) it says to submit teacher recommendations, transcripts, mid year school reports, etc. to apply for regular decision.
does this mean we have to re-send everything that we already did on the nov. 1 deadline?
(this question applies to all the other questbridge schools as well.)</p>

<p>^ LOL. same here.</p>

<p>does anyone have any idea how many finalists there are? or anyone have any idea how many scholarships they’re going to give out? last year it said they awarded 260 which seems like a lot, and hopefully it increases!</p>

<p>If you submitted LORs and transcripts with common app during match round directly to the schools then you do not need to submit again. But some schools only accepted questbridge application for match. Then they request transcripts and LORs for regular decision even if stuff was sent with the Questbridge application. The bottom line is the requirements are slightly different for each school and you have to read the questbridge regular decision page and go through the checklist item by item. Some things are obvious, like if you already sent the CSS profile directly to college for match, then you do not need to do that again. No college has received the FAFSA or midterm reports yet etc. On another note, Stanford finally recorded receiving Teacher LORs! No worries</p>
