2014-2015 Brown University Application Thread

This forum made possible through the generous support of SDN members, donors, and sponsors. Thank you.
Rejected via portal. Good luck to everyone who's still in the running!
🙁 I'm sorry to hear this. Best of luck with the rest of your cycle! Can you share your complete date?

I'm dying to get a sense of things bc I was complete at most of my schools 9/12...and haven't heard...anything.

I wouldn't stress too much yet - I was complete way back in July!

And thanks! Best of luck to you as well.
 
rejection via email :[ complete late August
 
So, looks like I have an email in my inbox. Given how consistent this thread has been, probably a rejection. 🙁 Good luck to everyone else! Brown is a fine institution! Wish I was fortunate enough to be invited for a chat.
 
Rejection email .. what a downer
(Complete 9/5)
 
Joining the rejection party. Got the e-mail a few hours ago. Complete around the end of August.
 
just got rejected 30 seconds ago - good bye Brown and good luck you gunners 😛
 
Email Rejection...
Complete 8/18
Good luck to everyone.
 
In case anyone missed the entire page of posts:
rejected as well, OOS, LizzyM 73-74, Complete 8/28.
 
I wonder if Wednesdays are Brown's decision days. The last big wave of rejections also occurred on a Wednesday.
 
Completed 9/20, received my pre-interview rejection email at 12:57PM today.

Brown was definitely a reach for me, plus the rejection e-mail was so nicely worded, so I don't feel that awful about this. meh.
 
I was told by folks in admission that a second wave of admissions will be coming out in November!

Admissions generally or specifically for those who already had an interview? I'm still hoping for an II! Thanks!
 
Can anyone comment on being waitlisted? When does the most movement on the waitlist occur, during the spring, or at each wave of acceptances?

Would love to know this as well.

They said they would send another wave of acceptances around this month. Not sure about II though. I'm crossing my fingers for you!
 
I had my interview today, which was awesome.
They told us that our decision would be out on Nov 21.
 
Rejected via portal. Complete 9/10. International. Lizzy M ~70
 
When I clicked status it now just says in red that my application is no longer being considered.
After reading your post thought I should check mine and I have the same - rejection via portal. Good luck to everyone else - last time I will be checking this forum. 🙁

I'm sorry 🙁 pretty sure I will get the same, but I was complete in oct so they probably haven't gotten to me yet. Your complete date?
 
Complete early august but no response since then. I wonder where my application sits now?

+1 (end of Aug)

I'm starting to think a bunch of my apps were rerouted directly to the twilight zone.

Yikes. Does that potentially mean that no news is good news in the form of - they've looked at you and haven't decided to chop you yet? :nailbiting::xf:

How is this possible when they are supposed to be accepting secondary applications through December 31, 2014?
