Didn’t see one so I’m starting this thread for RIT Early Decision for Fall 2023 Admission. Share thoughts and questions. Looking forward to connect!

Congrats!! My son also received his acceptance last night for Computer Science. We have friends whose son attends and loves RIT. We really enjoyed our campus visit. Hoping others got good news as well last night, and good luck to all ED’s and RDs yet to hear!

My son also got his ED decision for Computing Exploration today. Woo!
Did anyone get any financial/merit info yet?

My son got his merit aid letter at the same time as his acceptance (you had to click on it, it was just below where you clicked to see the acceptance letter) but he didn’t get his need based letter. It said somewhere that he’d receive that by mid to late December (but perhaps it’ll really come sooner?).
Congrats to all! My son also got his merit aid letter at the same time, in a separate document.

Weird. Maybe it’s because we applied for Tuition Exchange. There is a note that that would be decided later.

Where was the Merit document?
We applied EA on 11/15. Congratulations to you all! We have a friend there and loves it! But I just found out that it’s not a straight flight into Rochester from CA, oops.

That’s wonderful! We have a friend studying that major and loves it there. Does RIT ever give merit? We’re waiting for a decision and hoping there’s some merit.

We haven’t heard anything yet, but is RIT generous with merit?
From what I’ve read, yes, they are, but not sure how much merit they give and if it brings the cost down to in-state tuition at most states.
Per this site which aggregates data from Common Data Sets, 96% of freshmen without need receive merit aid with the average merit package being $17,264. The site was updated in November 2022 and used data from the 2021-2022 Common Data Sets.
