Admissions Decisions Class of 2020

@partyof5 - thanks !

How was he notified?

@rriv2734 Morrill Scholars are notified by email.

Just posting, in case anyone is waiting for Scholars notification. Received an email overnight, stating I made into Scholars program.

@dreamed for premed which could be better? Honors program or Scholars program

@Pras2016 - My personal preference would be Scholars. Why?

Because of the living learning community opportunities outside the classroom Scholars would provide. It would provide more exposure to the outside world which would be required during preparation for Medical College (assuming the Pre-med student is focused in getting into Medical College).

I assume your son /daughter, select one of the two choices during filling Common App?

Yes my son applied for honors and he got it. But I was not sure how scholars program works.

More decisions on friday?

For those who were accepted into honors what were your stats? Thanks!!

do you know if it’s their osu email or personal email?

@Pras2016 - we spoke with 3 honors students when we visited the campus. All 3 said the #1 benefit of being in honors is priority registration. You can get the classes you want, with the professors you want, when you want. They said the biggest drawback was that honors classes are harder and a lot more work. My D chose scholars over honors, but there are pros and cons to both.

Does anyone know when they send out more notifications for honors and scholars?

@rriv2734 I got mine in my personal!

My son officially accepted OSU’s offer of admission today. It’s been his top choice. Was also accepted to Penn State, Providence College, UMass Amherst and UNH. Waiting on UConn, which was his second choice. We live in MA so the state tuition from UMass would of been nice but I want him to go where he wants to be!

@jakeybake - Congrats and Welcome to OH-IO !!

My son received his acceptance into the scholars program a few days ago and will be attending the event on January 30th.

thanks!
