Admissions Decisions Class of 2021

Does anyone know when Scholars come out?

Does anyone know about the engineering GroupMe? I got accepted into CES a while ago, saw on another thread that existed, but can’t find anyone to put me in

@GlennDJ When I spoke with the office, they said the results would be released at the end of March.

i got a full ride but osu is my safety

@Crazy12 i applied EA didn’t hear back until the end of january. i got deffered and haven’t heard back. the waiting is brutal

@tiredhuman People have mixed opinions on honors Freshmen Engineering, PM me if you want and I can go into more detail. Honors in general is worth it just because of the priority scheduling.

any wave tomorrow?

@schoolistoohard Meant to tell you not GlennDJ that when I spoke with the office, they said we would hear back about the Scholars program at the end of March.

I believe Scholars Program students get priority scheduling as well, FWIW.

@STEM2017 I did not hear this, but will check it out it my daughter does get into the Scholars program.

@lovethearts1

Here is the list of benefits for Scholars…

@STEM2017 Thanks so much!

When the heck am I gonna hear back from osu

@nduclaunc wondering the same thing -.-

If you go to: http://orientation.osu.edu/fresh_au_dates.html they have listed the orientation dates for different majors, honors and scholars. You’ll get a mailing from University Orientation with instructions for reserving an orientation session on line. Orientation mailings are sent on a rolling basis beginning in March according to the date students pay acceptance fees. The earlier you pay your acceptance fee, the earlier you will receive an orientation packet.

Can we receive the notification to be accepted in both Honors Program and the school itself?
What i feel is that OSU might be planning to release both acceptance together. This could be a reason for them to be taking time in their decisions.
Any views on this?

My S applied EA, and he was accepted mid-November, and got notification about Honors on Feb. 2nd. However, not that we are nearing the end, maybe they will send them out together, if not closer together. You can always call the school and ask, they are very nice on the phone.

@Mombean So it can be possible?

@Sheel Patel I don’t think the information will come in the exact same document, but perhaps it’ll be closer together time-wise. The acceptance was first shown on http://appstatus.osu.edu/ followed by a letter in the regular mail. The notification for Honors came in an email from honors-scholars@osu.edu Good luck!

@Mombean thanks for posting that link to the orientation dates!
