<p>What was your CR/MATH on SAT?</p>
<p>After deing deffered, I recieved a letter basically saying that although I did not get in for Autumn quarter, I was in a selected group that could sign up for the waiting list. It also said I had a few options to choose from. The options apparently said that I could go to main campus as long as I start in either the summer quarter or the winter quarter of 2009. Did anybody else recieve a letter like this? It was a bit confusing but after callling the Office of Admissions, I was informed that this is a new option for this year and that I am accepted as long as I start on the summer or winter quarters.</p>
<p>On the sheet I filled out, I chose to go on the waiting list, and if I wasn't accepted for the fall quarter I would begin in the winter. </p>
<p>Just wondering what others think about this...</p>
<p>My D received the same letter. We thought it was going to be good news since it was a fat envelope. Still, it was better than a flat out rejection.</p>
<p>I don't understand how they don't have room for her to start in the fall, but will have room for her in the fall as long as she takes five hours this summer?</p>
<p>my math = 550
my reading = 500</p>
<p>my father lived in ohio for 25 years and for some reason they wanted me to list that so hopefully that means something, even though i dont live there now nor does he.</p>
<p>this letter sounds interesting, how long after you were deffered did you receive this letter?</p>
<p>D applied in September, was deferred in December, and received the letter this week. </p>
<p>I just figured out something kind of interesting. D's ACT score is high enough to qualify for the National Buckeye Award, a scholarship to OOS residents. However, the scholarship information says that it is only available to students that start in the fall quarter. It looks like by saying she can only start in summer or winter, OSU just saved some $.</p>
<p>AdvMom, not sure OSU is saving $ as much as they have a specific number of scholarships awarded each quarter. Maybe the quota for fall has been met?</p>
<p>Houstonmom, I understand what you are saying. They probably budgeted for x scholarships, and anyone beyond that has to start a different quarter so they don't blow their budget. But for us it means an OSU education would cost $29K more than we expected since she won't get this scholarship.</p>
