Admissions Decisions Class of 2020

Hey guys, i enrolled at OSU and was expecting some kind of housing application or something but still havent recieved it…is it out???

@BeastOfEarth
No, it’s not
“Housing information will be emailed to your OSU email in mid-March.”

I haven’t been accepted but it seems my SFA status has. Can someone explain?

Status has changed*

The SFA status has different numbers listed for estimated cost of attendance, expected family contribution, and financial aid need

when does osu usually send their financial aid pacakages

@kau123 Quote from email from student service center "Complete financial aid award notifications (including merit based scholarships) will be ready to view on the Student Center by mid to late March. "

Did anyone receive a welcome letter from your college/school(as stated in the brochure)?

Yes, my S received his letter not long after he was accepted.

Yes, my DS received a welcome letter from engineering.

My son received a welcome booklet from the department of Computer Science Engineering today.

@SALSRL @Cheeringsection
I’ve only received the acceptance letter with brochure so I wrote to them but ended up getting this response “The request you made for a welcome letter from the school of enrollment would be best met by the acceptance letter. If you need a different document specifically from the College of Engineering, they can be reached at https://advising.engineering.osu.edu/contact-us .”

@jakeybake @Cheeringsection Have your son paid the acceptance fee yet?

No we have not paid the acceptance fee.

No, we have not paid either. His letter also came from the College of Engineering congratulating him on his acceptance. He applied to Electrical & Computer Engineering. It is possible that each department handles it differently.

Yes, we did pay the acceptance fee back in January. OSU is his first choice so we wanted to make sure we had the fee paid.

@Cheeringsection @SALSRL Thanks for the quick response.
When did you receive the welcome letter?
I was admiited to College of Engineering PRE-Computer Science

@sjmaiklee My S received the letter not long after he received his admissions package.

How easy is it to change majors in the COE?

Dear Rishabh:

Congratulations! We are very pleased to inform you that you have been admitted to The Ohio State University for the autumn 2016 semester and will be enrolled in Engineering.

Your admission to Ohio State reflects our confidence in your ability to thrive at one of America’s top public universities. As a new Buckeye, you will soon join a community of highly engaged students, accomplished faculty and supportive staff at a university where the energy, momentum and pride have never been higher.

DOES THIS MEAN THAT I AM DIRECTLY ADMITTED TO COLLEGE OF ENGINEERING?? BECAUSE I DID NOT RECEIVE ANY MAIL SPECIFICALLY FROM THE COLLEGE OF ENGINEERING!!
