What are you guys using to log into the admitted students website? I can't get in with my credentials used for the application

TheFloridian · Answer

I have not been able to get in either. It looks like it still says "Class of 2017" on the front page, so I assume it just us not been updated for us yet.

I am going to call the Admissions office on Monday to get an update on when the site will go live.

I just spoke to the Admissions Office on the phone. They said that they will be sending out an email with login information for the WelcometoOwen.com website. It sounds like last year the site was not password protected, but this year it is, and there have been some unexpected delays in the transition.

She said since most everyone is out on holiday this week, the email will likely go out next week.

For those of you who want to see an archived version of LAST YEAR's WelcometoOwen.com website, you can pull it up on the Wayback Machine here: https://web.archive.org/web/20150906060 ... u/welcome/

I'm sure a lot of the information will be updated on this year's site, but this archived version is still super helpful.

Hey guys, I was just wondering how many of you got >80% fellowship? I heard that Owen is pretty generous. Thanks

TheFloridian · Answer

1 week until the deposit deadline! Is anyone in R1 still trying to make a decision?

mickeydees · Answer

I am still trying to figure it out. I was out of the country for a bit so phone calls and emails were very difficult for me to get into contact with schools. I was hoping to get a scholarship offer from one. What is your decision coming down to?

bradical213 · Answer

My deposit is in. Ill be matriculating in the fall. To be honest, I wish it was starting in like a month.

Looking forward to meeting any of you who are also matriculating! I plan to be at welcome weekend in April.

Any luck with the welcome to owen site yet?

mickeydees · Answer

Congrats. No luck with the website. I wish they would communicate out about it.

TheFloridian · Answer

My interviewer said we would be sent passwords to the site this week. So I'm assuming that means today :-)

Hey Y'all

I wanted to see how people were feeling about the incoming class? I want this to be the best class ever both because I am a part of it and because I want the Owen brand to grow. How are people feeling about the math courses? (some of us have to take them!) Anybody want to start a whatsapp group or something similar? I am somewhat unfamiliar with the app, but a lot of my b-school friends say it is a great way to start to get to know one another, send over quick info, etc.

TheFloridian · Answer

I agree; I think (read: know) this will be the best class ever.

I am not doing the math classes, but I've been assigned the Accounting prep course. I like the book & it's been fun so far-- I already feel like I am back in school again.

I'm down for WhatsApp if you make a group. I've never used it before either.

Neither have I used WhatsApp before. But let's jump out of our comfort zones. I've just created a WhatsApp group for incoming students of Class 2018. Please pm me your phone number and I'll add you to the group. There will be so much fun.
