@2019Engineering You won’t hear about money until minimally the end of this year and as late as mid-February. It depends how high your grades/rank are. The give out merit to the top merit candidates first and work their way down from there.
So when is the cut off tonight for decisions? Are there going to be any more status updates tonight?
Of course, I had gotten my hopes up that I would get a decision today, but since I submitted my app on 10/31 it seems unlikely 8-|
My son applied 10/21 and we didn’t hear either ?
Is it completely random? applied EA on September 14 and didn’t get a decision tonight! when is the next wave?
Everyone I’ve spoken with says it’s random…next wave is nov 30 if they stick to years past. Check again tomorrow morning. Good luck! Hang in there!!
Check tomorrow morning. Apparently the decisions can come as late as 5 am tmrw. But this is the first wave and it’s random. It’s stressful I know hang in there!! Best of luck!
How many waves are there?

Is there any chance to hear between now and the 30th or will the next set just be released then?
@Lonerstamp so far everyone I know who applied got in. Haven’t heard of any rejections.
@oj2018
Yes, there was one student in this thread who reported getting denied yesterday. S/he had good stats too.
I would expect, in general, those accepted are much more willing to post than those who are denied.
OOS D17 still “Evaluation”.
I take it no further news until the next wave of decisions is released.
Q: for OSU does this occur every Friday, mid & month end, or how?
@momzilla2D pretty sure that person was a fake. All of their posts were removed.
I hate to say it but last year admissions decisions only came out once a month. 2nd wave was 12/15.
