has anyone else not gotten their decision yet… i applied 10/30 and i didnt get an email and it still says pending deicison

D got her decision today by email. We don’t have a letter yet. Her SAT is 1970 and GPA is 3.65 uw and 4.4w. We are in MA.

@dirtysprite2 Honors College decisions should be out by January I think. They come separately and scholarships will come later since the deadline to be considered for merit was Dec 1st. You should receieve information about scholarships by March 15th.

thanks! @Chopinspiano

D received her acceptance yesterday via email. Her SAT was 1980 and GPA is 3.75 uw. We are NJ residents.

My app tracker is broken.
I called the school they know.
I still have no decision.
Anyone not gotten one yet?

@futurenurse317 my counselor told me its rolling and i think theyre sending it out in batches so not everyone has heard yet

@futurenurse317 I was accepted from NY yesterday via email (and the app tracker was updated too) …but I know they are sending them in batches throughout the next few weeks so don’t worry. The first batch was only 3,000 decisions, so there are plenty more to come. good luck :slight_smile:

Thanks I am super nervous. I hope I hear soon!

It looks like the kids who got accepted thus far have great academic performance. Does anyone know if they typically accept the academic stars first and then accept the more average kids in a later mailing?

My son was accepted early this week. 1820 SAT (27 ACT) and 91/100 GPA unweighted.

has anyone received their snail mail acceptance letter or just the email version? It seems like all of the high achievers got their admission letters via email, just trying to understand what was sent via snail mail. COC admissions twitter should do a better job explaining this or suffer through many calls to admissions office

@cocdad Yes I’ve received my official letter earlier this week. No scholarship info was given out or honors notifications yet.

Snail mail packet for my daughter arrived yesterday. Now she will wait to hear about honors.

so is it fair to say no one from class of 2020 has received a deferral or denied admission decision?

also where do you see the applicant tracker info? I want my son to check his status…thx
