Anyone receive this email from admission comittee?

Congratulations to all of you! You’re all impressive and I wish you the best of luck.

I was accepted EA (with honors & scholarship) and never heard a peep from the admissions office before December 15. That said, I did get a really nice phone call from a girl in my intended major where she discussed all the opportunities that would be available to me; that would have been about a month ago.

I didnt receive anything. Does that mean im not a valid candidate. I recently submitted my midyear report and i was deferred from early action

"As part of my work with the admissions committee, I was fortunate to see your application. Your achievements speak for themselves; but more than that, your hard work and personal traits reflect the kind of student that thrives at Northeastern. Thank you again for your application and interest—I wish you the best of luck with your candidacy.

Sincerely,
Liz Cheron"

My child’s stats are similar. However, we have a different take on this email. We think its a polite “Sorry- don’t be discouraged when we don’t accept you. Be encouraged that your stats will get you in somewhere else”.

I don’t think so.@ScreenName17 I think it is as close to a likely letter as you can get.

@desie1 I agree. Can’t see it being a “sorry” letter.

no way… the stats on the kids that got them were amazing! Most have at least a 3.9 gPa and over a 32 on ACT

Why would they waste their time with personalized sorry letters. No way. This is a good sign for those who got it!

Again it appears that applicants with superior stats and EC’s received these emails. My guess is that decisions will be coming out this week, most likely Tuesday, based on the last couple of years.

Makes me nervous that my son didn’t receive this email :confused: Northeastern is his first choice

@kristi4806 kittymom1102 posted earlier that her son got no email or phone call EA and was awarded Scholars.

@kristi4806 My S heard absolutely nothing from the AO, not a single word.

Decision day came … not only did he get in, he got in as University Scholar! Less than 1/2 percent of the kids who apply are admitted as Scholars … imagine our surprise as he read his acceptance letter <:-P

Don’t lose hope just yet

@TomSrOfBoston you mean it is likely that they will send out decisions for everyone this week or just the ones with scholarships/huge grants? If i got the email does that mean there is a chance ill get a reply this week ?

Based on the last couple of years decisions for top applicants may be coming out in this week or next. Decisions for the rest would come out in mid March. Again based on past years if you got the email there is a good chance that you will receive a decision sooner rather than later.

@TomSrOfBoston Off Topic - How do you bold on CC???

[ b ] text ** but take out the spaces in the first bracket.

31 ACT and 3.86 Unweighted. Received the “possess qualities” a two days ago. I seem like an outlier compared to everybody else that got the email. Hopefully that is a good thing.

** THANKS! **

@Bulldog97 I got the exact same email with a 3.8 UW/4.25 W GPA and a 31 ACT. I have strong ECs and a good essay, so maybe that helped.

@swimfast11 - hey, your stats are basically identical to what mine were when I applied! (IB, GPA, ACT) :slight_smile: Clearly it’s a sign, right? I had an awesome 5 years at Northeastern.
