Coriander, sounds like if you will definately get in this spring semester. 74 points, thats a lot. Plus you'll have a headstart on everyone else, since you can get your UD classes out of the way. Good Job!

Does anyone have any idea of when we'll hear for Spring? I keep forgetting to ask them when I call or go down there.

It's been a while folks... but I'm back to let everyone know that they are only taking 50 people this Spring for the SON. boo!
Did any of you guys who didn't get in FALL 09, roll-over their application? I did and I am not excited this time around. I'm tired of the rejection. Any thoughts from you guys?

Holy smokes -- only 50? That's crazy!!!

I'm still extremely nervous, points or not. Points don't matter until you get that call or email.

My fingers and toes are crossed!

corriander,

did they do grade projections for you? is that they miscalculated your points, or was it just because of the psyc class?

Has anyone had any experience with they project grades? Are they generally right? What if you get a higher score then projected, do you still get into the program, or do you have navigate a big bureaucratic nightmare?

They didn't do grade projections for me, no. What happened was that I had taken the Intro to Psych class 17 years ago and received a C-, which initially lost me 4 points right off the bat. I retook the class over the summer and received an A, which put the 4 points back on. It was because of that class that I didn't get in.

I sat down with an advisor, and she had my file, and that was the only thing she said that needed to be resolved. She then told me what my points had been and what they were now with the Psych grade. I don't know if they do it by projected grades... I think with SDSU they go by what they see in front of them.

so even though you had 74 points, you're in the gray zone? when i went to an "information session" they said that the most recent cutoff was 72. I hope you get in, I'm sure you probably have more points than others, but what do i know?????

lolis, I had only 70 points when it mattered. I didn't make the cut that time.

Keep your spirits up...
