<p>AHHHHH. I’ve checked the mailbox everyday for like a solid month. Still nothing…</p>
<p>Nothing for us either…frustrating.</p>
<p>My D is also waiting. She spoke to admissions last week. The woman told her they have a stack of notifications waiting to be mailed.</p>
<p>Hope they mail one our way!!</p>
<p>Same here. I emailed them a while ago, hoping to hear back soon.</p>
<p>We’re confused about the “early” acceptances they’re sending out. My son’s friend received his acceptance the day after Christmas. He and my son have the exact same CR+M SAT score. If you add in writing, my son is 100 points higher.The only major difference in the two is that my son’s friend is 720 Math + 500 reading on SAT and my son is 650 Math +570 reading. Could the math over 700 be the difference? Their GPA’s are within hundredths of a point. </p>
<p>I thought they were sending these acceptances only for the merit scholarships. Yet my son’s friend received no merit scholarship in his acceptance. I wish Clemson would do like other schools and have somewhere you can check the status of your application and credentials online. It’s so frustrating!</p>
<p>My son received his acceptance today. He had received a preliminary offer near the end of the last school year. He didn’t get very much merit money offered ($5,000 per year) unfortunately which probably makes it out of our reach as an OOS student. But, it’s nice to finally have the offer. He has a 4.0u/4.3w, 1320/2010 and is top 10%.</p>
<p>Congrats on the letter! Sorry to hear it may not work though.</p>
<p>Does anyone know, could the money be increased now if someone increases their test scores? I would doubt it, but…</p>
<p>Thanks! We don’t hold out much hope for more money - but would love to be pleasantly surprised 
Would love to hear too if anyone else ever gets more down the road.</p>
<p>Son received his acceptance yesterday but the merit award ($10000/yr) may not be enough to make it affordable. He had a 3.2uw/3.8w gpa and a 2100 SAT. Received a much better award at Alabama and we are hoping for good $ from USC and CofC.</p>
<p>Sent from my SCH-I510 using CC</p>
<p>I know the ACT cutoff for the 15k is a 32, and that converts to a 2130. Your son is very close to that. If Clemson is a top choice, it might be worth asking if he improves his score, can he go back and get the 15k.</p>
<p>tigerin13, do you know what ACT is needed for $10,000?</p>
<p>I don’t. I have a significantly better ACT so I was working with ACT scores. I just used a conversion chart for the previous post.</p>
<p>Here are the conversions: (according to [SAT-ACT</a> Conversion chart](<a href=“http://teachers.sduhsd.k12.ca.us/lccounseling/sat-act_conversion_chart.htm]SAT-ACT”>http://teachers.sduhsd.k12.ca.us/lccounseling/sat-act_conversion_chart.htm)) So I can’t guarentee those are the exact numbers but should be close.
32 2130 -15k
31 2040
30 1980
29 1920
28 1860 -5k</p>
<p>I know that those ACT scores have different values, but I don’t remember exactly what is what. I believe there is a 7.5k and 10k, don’t know what the other would be. 12.5 maybe? I personally though that it started at a 29 but thats not true according to their site.</p>
<p>Quite frankly, I think you could just call them and ask, they have been VERY helpful every time I talk to them.</p>
<p>I’m so confused! I got accepted yesterday with 1,000 a year but I have a 32 act score or a 33 if they super score. I’m in state does that matter?</p>
<p>Yes. Out of state is significantly more so they try to reduce that significianty more.</p>

<p>Also, just got my acceptance! Very Excited!</p>
<p>Oh yeah okay thanks! And congratulations!</p>
<p>Thanks a bunch!</p>
<p>What about other smaller scholarships? When, if at all, are those awarded? Things like departmental scholarships of smaller amounts.</p>
<p>I believe that is up to the smaller parties, such as departments. Also, they require FAFSA to be completed I believe, which isn’t due for them until March 1st. So, I would assume its after march 1st for most, and just as the small scholarships are decided, you are told. </p>
<p>I do believe I heard someone say that, but I could be wrong.</p>
<p>Thanks tigerin13 and congratulations!!!</p>
