If you have a bachelor's degree already, you do not have to send in your high school transcripts. But, there is a foreign language requirement. If you completed the requirement in high school, THEN you need to send the transcript from your high school even if you do have a bachelor's degree. But if you completed the foreign language in undergrad, you only need the undergrad transcript.

If you have not graduated from your undergraduate program, you do have to send them in.

What Kadee is saying is correct. Also, I have received an email multiple times stating that they haven't received my transcript and I have called the school several times and they said they did receive it and to disregard the email. So it's possible that everything is up to date on your side. I would call the school to see what they need from you.

I haven't received an interview invite either, however my application says " audit complete- pre-req pending" whatever that means. i do know that i am missing ECON.
it does still say that my notarized forms is still incomplete, which I've called multiple times to verify that they have received ( and they said they have). so i don't know!

Does anyone know when the semester will start?

In the acknowledgement form it says that mandatory orientation is from Aug 21-25 so I'm guessing classes would start that Monday after (28th)?

Good luck with the Fasfa! I did it and Im still confused lol But my best advice to you all is to make sure you apply correctly when it comes to filing as an undergrad or grad student because one would think since its a graduate program that you would file as a grad student but this is not the case, it comes down to how many undergrad credits you have (basically depending if you got a bachelors degree or close to it) is what determines how you file so double check cause I had to change mine 3 times lol which as you can imagine delayed my return and I got flagged so I had to submit paperwork verifying my taxes so Im trying to prevent this from happening to you guys

I imagine we'll be desperately trying to stay sane/awake. A week seems pretty lengthy for orientation, I can't think of what we would need to go over on all of those days :arghh:

Are we required to attend the entire week or are those dates choices that are given and we choose which day best suits out schedule?
 
Hey guys. On the acknowledgement form, it says they need all undergrad transcripts in by July 1. Does anyone know if that means I need to send everything in again even though I sent them with my application? Or is that only for people that have not finished their pre-reqs?

Unfortunately, we have to go every day that week and the professional dress code is strictly enforced. I wonder how long it's gonna take them to give us info about the deposit and other fees that are involved

If I'm not mistaken I read in another thread that there is no deposit required to hold a seat, but there are fees that have to be paid at orientation.
 
Has anyone started looking at apartments? I have no idea where to start

Okay, so i am assuming that classes start the 28th of august, and i dont believe that a deposit to hold a seat is required I think its just turning in the form.

Is the 600 for each person living in the apartment or is it 600 total and if I can find a roommate, we split that cost?

It's public but everyone can't be a member, once you're a member you can add other members though. I just wanted to avoid having random ppl from all over Facebook trying to join lol you're in!
