Northwestern Transfer Applicants Fall 2019

@etransfer2019 Congrats!!!(:

Last time I looked, there was no facebook group-but that was right after I got in. I will look tonight and see what is there. I really don’t know why I heard so early–I am sure there are plenty of better candidates that have not heard yet. It’s just a much more random process from start to finish that the process for high school seniors. I think luck plays a bigger part, so hopefully everybody gets lucky somewhere!

@etransfer2019 thank you!!! and have you committed yet, or are you still waiting on other decisions?

My DS attends a Top 20 university and achieved a 4.0 but has not heard. He applied on or the day prior to the deadline. Timing often depends on the particular major the individual is seeking.

@etransfer2019 congrats! Do you mind sharing what college at Northwestern you applied into?

what schools did the people who were rejected hear from? i am applying to the college of arts and sciences as an incoming sophomore and currently have a 3.468 gpa at a large state school as an english major and math minor.

No decisions so far…safe to assume that we won’t hear back this week?

Yeah I don’t think we’ll hear back today.

why would you think we won’t? it’s only 4:00 EST and it usually doesn’t come out at that time.

^^ it is so early now and results could come as late as 6:30

It seems like waves have historically been 5-6:30pm with some midday ones sprinkled in, I think there’s a decent chance more decisions will be released tonight.

Oh, I thought people were saying that acceptances come out at 11:30 A.M.

I really hope this is true!

@oceansquare so basically, last year, the second wave was release on a Wednesday around 11am EST mostly with acceptances but only a few people got notified. However, this was the only time in the past couple years that any wave had been released at that time. Usually decisions are released around 5-6:30pm EST, so that is why we might still hear back today

@oceansquare Some have received acceptances at that time, but acceptances also come out in the evening

@Ashtash May I ask you the applicants’ stat who was accepted this morning? I thought they did not release.

@TimJ00 No one was accepted this morning, that we know of. I’m just referring to previous years. This is just all the info we’ve gathered from looking at older threads

@Ashtash Ok, thanks.

it would be historically odd if some decisions didn’t come out today. But if they don’t I’m assuming tomorrow or next Wednesday

@karlmarxismydad Agreed…they’ve released some decisions on thursdays in the past, right? I feel like I saw that somewhere. I wouldn’t be surprised if things are different this year than previous years. Admissions is always random in general, so nothing really shocks me anymore, haha
