Hi I applied Early Decision since Geneseo is my first choice. Would anyone know when I’d get my acceptance? The website says December 15th but no letter in the mail today. Do you get an email or letter first? Help
TYIA
Have you heard yet? My son got his in person on the 14th because they drove to schools within a few hours and did a personal hand off of the letter with people from admissions and the mascott. They said letters got mailed out that week.
I just called and then said 1st week of March
decisions were mailed today
My daughter received her acceptance today with an invite to apply to the honors program.
@mistermom99 Was there any mention of merit aid in the acceptance letter?
@merething Just that if accepted to honors, there would be a $2000/yr scholarship with it. Nothing else unfortunately.
@mistermom99 Do you mind sharing her stats? In MA and waiting for the decision letter.
my son received the admissions packet this afternoon yippee
Received admissions packet with scholarship letter. Does anyone know if this is the only time the scholarships are offered or if there can be more offered in the financial packet?
Does anyone else feel like the 2 week turn around for the scholarship application/essay is rather short? My daughter won’t know about other offers by then and is hesitating about putting the time into the essay…although I’d love her to do so
@Old56er what scholarship are you referring to?
My daughter’s offer came with an application to apply to the honors program. If accepted, she would get a $2k annual scholarship, housing in the honors dorm, etc. But in order to be considered there is an application with both an essay and a short answer question, and the whole thing is due by 03/17…which is before my daughter will know about other offers of acceptance (or rejections!)…so at this point it’s not super clear to her whether she should put in the extra work. Of course I want her to do it (both for the scholarship and for the opportunity) but I feel like she needs to be in the driver’s seat on this one. (No matter how hard it is for me not to be a backseat driver!)
Accepted today! 3.73 GPA and 29 ACT
My son got the packet yesterday. Congrats @starliffy @old56er @ciera @ Doberlady!
Just waiting on Bing and we are done!! He was deferred from EA to RD at Bing. I already have a child at Geneseo so I am not sure what my son will do.
@old56er: applying to honors college doesn’t mean you accept the offer. You have till May first to decide.
@Old56er My D is in the exact same predicament regarding the Edgar Scholars program. She already feels burned out on essay writing for these things and it’s due before she will know if she wants to attend Geneseo as she will be awaiting results until the end of March. I’m not sure if my D will go for this, and I’m not sure I feel inclined to pressure her to do it, either.
