Admission acceptance fee timeline 2021

Hi, hoping to get some guidance. I noticed there seems to be no housing deposit at OSU on-line. Has anyone found otherwise?

Also, I noticed in the “next steps” this language on-line see bottom:

Does this mean within 3 days we should get this “acceptance fee statement” and only have 3 weeks to make a decision? I was hoping to hear about scholarships prior? Any thoughts…

Accept our offer of admission and pay your acceptance fee

Your nonrefundable $100 acceptance fee is due within three weeks of receiving the Acceptance Fee Statement, which is emailed to you within three days of your admission.

I can’t get into the portal to see, but I think it says 5/1 is the deadline.

Yes, the deadline is 5/1.

thank you the language on the website is weird I guess? Why does it say 3 weeks. This would be stressful!
