@TravelMom402 I had assumed that was for the 18-19 application process, not the school year, but you may be right. It just seems odd that your honors merit is only 15k. My daughter got a 20k award, but nothing on honors.
@njmom18 and @TravelMom402 - my son also applied to honors and received a deans scholarship but no mention of honors in the acceptance letter.
In the very least they should acknowledge that a student applied but didnāt get into the program so the kids arenāt just left wondering. I can understand that getting back to almost 20,000 people is an incredible feat of organization, but it all seems a bit haphazard. Maybe they should think about portal decisions to make this easier and less stressful for everyone!
Still nothing in mail in MA. Guess itās a NO but would be nice to know and move on.
Havenāt received anything in the mail in South Florida but I did get the email saying congrats on admission. Iām wondering how I can see if I was accepted to Honors/ any merit scholarships ?
@NJMom18 @TravelMom402 - I believe American has changed their merit to a high of $22k (aside from FDDS). I was also told by Admissions that they were doubling the size of the Honors program for next year, though it doesnāt seem like it by those posting.
nothing in CT!! can we assume if we donāt get the welcome to AU email and not being able to create an account as a no? because I havenāt been able to create an account for 2-3 days now and havenāt received an email.
I actually got waitlisted oof. The yield protection is real this year.
Does anyone know if there are other admitted student days beyond April12? Iāve been looking on the website and having trouble finding info.
Package finally arrived today in Chicago with notification of $18K Presidential scholarship for S19.
What do yaāll know about the fall mentor ship opportunity?
Maybe I read into this wrong during the application period, however, I thought that American did not base admissions on intended major? I thought that they accepted based on your application and not what school/major you applied to. Is this correct?
@penny1234 I found this link regarding the fall mentor-ship opportunity.
Essentially, it states that these studentsā applications show they are strong and that American trusts them to be in the mentor-ship program. However, I am having trouble with believing this as my academic stats are fairly low. If anyone has additional information, let me know!(:
Package finally arrived in Northern California for my daughter, who I noted previously received an email on Thursday for a local event.
Happy to report sheās been accepted into the Honors Program 
@napafoli - congrats!
My package finally came today as well (Northern VA area so dont know why it took so long), but I got into the honors program as well!! Does anyone know how much money is given for Honors
@mcunerd - congrats to you too!
to anyone who got accepted- did all of you receive emails and/or was able to log in to the portal?
@ cravingchipotle My daughter could not logon for several days, and only received an email noting her admission because of a local event on Thursday. The acceptance package was mailed out Tuesday and was delayed by our local mail delivery until Saturday, FYI. Love your username
@Napafolie are those local events in your home state or states next to you? i live in CT so I would assume if there was an event in NY or MA they wouldāve emailed me by now. and ty!! chiptole has been a comfort food for me the past couple of days lol
@ cravingchipotle Love it!
From what Iāve read, the acceptance emails tend to be graphically limited by distance-meaning I donāt think everybody is getting them with a reference to the nearest event, and instead are received by only those within a certain perimeter. But thatās just my best guess based on some earlier posts I saw. Best of luck!
