I had very personal essays highlighting my diversity and key moments in my life. Heavy AP and honors course load. Leadership roles in all my extracurricular.
Very excited! Just waiting for an email now and I’ll stop being nervous! Congrats to all 
Any idea when the next decisions will be released? Thought for sure I was going to get my decision in the first round… 35 ACT & 4.3 GPA.
Thought we’d get decision last night - everything accepted by Sept. 28. Historically is it a negative if no response in first round? Daughter’s 3 friends accepted - similar stats. And lastly, any truth to the rumor that they have so many OOS applicants that they only accept a handful from each high school?

@hahsndh In the past they’ve released the 2nd batch of decisions 2 weeks after the first, so Friday Dec 2nd. After that they release every Friday except for the weeks of Christmas and New Years.
I thought I would be accepted first round as well, 35 ACT and 108/100 GPA(w). Guess we’ll have to wait another two weeks.
@monjmom it should absolutely NOT be taken as a sign of a future rejection if you didn’t receive a decision in the first round. My son was accepted in the third wave of decisions released last year. At this point, as hard as it is, it is really best to not focus on why others heard and your daughter didn’t or to try to figure out some logic for who got notified first. If it makes it easier, just imagine there are huge piles of application folders sitting on desks in the Admissions office in no particular order. They can only get through so many piles at a time and they just haven’t gotten to your daughter’s pile yet but they will.
Anyone in Business be willing to tell me what their profile says? My son’s says UG Bus but also says PREBSBA-PR. He should qualify for the Fisher College of Business as a direct admit, but this looks like they admitted him Pre-Business. I read somewhere that they have to be admitted to OSU first and then admitted to Fisher. So I’m wondering if this will change?
@drjdillon mine says Program - Business (UBUS), Plan - Finance (FINANCE-BS). Not sure if that helps but I thought I’d try!
Did anyone receive an email from OSU Admissions after being Admitted on the portal?
@lushella Thank you. I think that means you are in the Business School. We will have to check on it. I think he should qualify.
@Trollair Yes i got mine today around 1:30. If you go on OSU admissions website and click what to do after admitted you can follow the directions there.
@Trollair D received the email yesterday.
My daughter checked and received her acceptance yesterday. (Nursing) she has a 3.98 GPA (unweighted), 28 ACT, Ohio kid, 6 AP classes, 6 dual enrollment classes and tons of extra curricular, & a URM
Our son did not get in. He got an email today. Good Luck to everyone.
Were the decisions emailed or mailed
For your buckeye email, is the password the same as the one that was used to check your application status in buckeye link? Or do you have to wait until you receive an email to the one you provided on the common app that will help you set up your school email? I just want to make sure I haven’t missed out on any emails yet
@CollegeCraze72 If you have a decision, it should be in your Application Portal
They will email you instructions to set up buckeye email
