2017 Lehigh RD Applicants' Discussion Thread

<p>Lehigh's page has been looking pretty dull lately. I think it'd be pretty awesome if we got a Class of 2017 RD thread going...</p>

<p>This is an excellent idea! I can’t wait til decisions come out!! SO nervous!! I hope we are both accepted man!</p>

<p>Agreed! What’s your intended major?</p>

<p>Do you know when they’re releasing decisions?</p>

Late March
@EdwardWitten
I’m going for biology right now, but I might change to molecular biology depending on the course load and my interest.</p>

<p>I wish they posted the decisions in early March!</p>

<p>I dont hear from any of my top schools until late march I’m kind of dying.</p>

<p>Where else did you guys apply?</p>

<p>I applied to Duke, Notre Dame, UVA, Lehigh, Bucknell, Villanova, University of Michigan, Northeastern, UCLA, UC Berkeley, UC Santa Barbara and I’ve already been accepted to San Diego state and Cal Poly Slo.
What about you?</p>

<p>Nice, I’ve been accepted to the university of Pittsburgh’s honors college and UIUC engineering. Still waiting on Vanderbilt, Case Western, Middlebury, and obviously Lehigh</p>

<p>Coool. What’s your first choice?</p>

<p>Vanderbilt. I live in Nashville so it’d be pretty ideal, but if not that, then definitely Lehigh. Part of me wants to get out of the Nashville bubble haha. And you?</p>

<p>Accepted to Ursinus, Pitt, Penn State. Waiting for Lehigh which my #1. Would have went ED , but my test scores aren’t great. 1 point below the 25% for the ACT and also financial aid.</p>

<p>I applied to lehigh bucknell Denver university Gonzaga James Madison Drexel Oregon U - accepted to Denver Oregon Drexel so far. Lehigh is by far my first choice .</p>

<p>Applied to Penn State, WJ, Marietta, Westminster, Wooster, Wesleyan, American, Kenyon, and Lehigh. Honestly, Lehigh is one of my last choices. I visited after I applied and I did not like what I saw of the student body.</p>

<p>S applied RD to Lehigh, Wake Forest, Boston College, Bucknell, Vanderbilt, Richmond. Accepted to Maryland, Miami (Fl), Clemson, Bentley, South Carolina, JMU, Pitt. I believe Lehigh is his top choice, then Wake then BC. Vanderbilt is a reach, but he would seriously consider going if accepted.</p>

<p>Syoung2 - what didn’t you like about the students at Lehigh?</p>

<p>@EdwardWitten Duke. I really want to get out of california so I applied to a bunch of east coast schools. Haha and if not Duke either Notre Dame or UVA but all three are reaches, so realistically, Lehigh.</p>

<p>Realistically, I wouldn’t necessarily say that Lehigh is a sure thing for any of us</p>

<p>Definitely agree with you, I just mean I have a better chance and my stats are more on par with lehigh than my top 3</p>

<p>To me, the students seemed very wealthy, materialistic, and intolerant. I know many people who also got this impression by visiting Lehigh</p>
