Although I believe they were offered admission to J-term and did not need to reapply, even though they hadn't applied for J-term. If you're open to it, maybe you could indicate that you would be interested in J-term and ask if you would need to re-apply? What is your GPA if you don't mind me asking? (0)

anon14149 Likes Earned: 68 OP: I'm definitely going to reapply, though it would be nice to save the additional $250 app fee! My GPA is not great (3.1 from NE public school), though I am on the older side (30) with strong work experience. (1)
