MSU admissions class of 2025

I applied to Michigan State in late October but haven’t heard back I was just wondering if anyone has heard back and if so what were your stats and major? Thanks

My daughter applied in early October and hasn’t heard back yet. Fingers still crossed. OOS with GPA 3.0 and no test submitted. Fingers crossed and hoping for the best.

My DS got his acceptance Wed (11/25). OOS, 3.6W GPA, solid EC and community service. Applied 10/31 to School of Music.

GL to all who are applying!

Alas, my D21 was denied. While we knew she’d be borderline we were hoping for the best. Bummed that she wasn’t deferred, but it was not meant to be. Regrouping and refocusing. Congrats to all who are accepted and best of luck to those awaiting decisions.

I have legal residency in Michigan as well as a summer house there, but they considered me OOS. I submitted my application on the 24th of October.

Here’s my basic info:

Just curious- any kids from Northern California considering MSU as their college destination. My son has received acceptances from MSU and Arizona State (Mechanical Eng.) and is leaning towards MSU as of now.

Not from Northern California — from DC area, but my son was also accepted to MSU and Arizona State (for music). Right now it is a toss-up since he can’t visit.

My son (OOS, 3.7, 1330 SATs) received his acceptance electronically on Nov 20th and then by mail today. There was no reference in either admissions letter to financial aid. We did submit the FAFSA by the deadline & he should qualify for need-based aid. Does anyone know when we could expect to get the financial aid determination?

Celebrating…my son passed the pre-screen for the school of music.

All student’s who met the December 1 Honors deadline will be notified of their decision via email and letter February 1. This cannot be viewed in the portal. Some decisions may be released earlier in the month of January at the Honor’s committee discretion. Applications are reviewed periodically for merit scholarships starting in October and students who are awarded merit based scholarships will traditionally be notified by letter no later than the last week of February. If the student submitted the FAFSA their complete financial aid package with scholarship, federal financial aid and need based aid is normally issued the first week of March. You can be notified of your federal financial aid award separately prior to March. If you have questions concerning the FAFSA or federal financial aid and you would like to speak with someone directly please contact us at 412-624-7448, option 2 or email them at finaid@pitt.edu.
