****brandeis 2021 regular decision thread****

Hi @Momofsenior2017 My son only had an invite to apply to QBReC and did send in his application by the deadline. No other LSC was listed. I’m not sure how they pick what LSC to offer to each student. They may be keeping QBReC small since it’s new. But it’s great that your son was offered the chance to apply to more than one LSC. Fingers crossed for decisions!!

S was also invited to apply to LSC program and he did submit under the Sustainability program. We are also hoping this is a good sign for acceptance.

I’m guessing the decisions will be released on March 16 (exactly a week from now!!) at 7pm. Anyone know or think that will be right?
Also, does Brandeis send an email announcing the notification date a few days before?

Wait where did you get the release date information from?

Decisions will be released March 17. They just said so in the chat.

Brandeis’s rooftop farm is ridiculously cool!

@redpoodles what chat

@hamsamcam17 They hosted an online chat (Q&A) last night between applicants and admissions staff/students who go there. An email came out a few weeks ago about it where you could sign up and then a couple days ago with the log in link.

I don’t think everyone got that email.

So are we all looking at 16th March as the date for decisions? Any idea is Brandeis is actually “holistic” or if it REALLY cares about GPA’s?

Wait so the decisions definitely come out the 17th? because if we follow the pattern of the last few years it should be on a thursday, which would be the 16th. Also anyone know what time decisions are up?

haven’t posted here, but im also an rd applicant to brandeis 2021!! brandeis is one of my favorite unis out of the ones i applied to, and im SO SO SO SO nervous for whichever day the decisions come… any in-state applicants here?

I have a child at Brandeis who got a 18k /year merit based scholarship beginning three years ago. However someone I know who spoke with admissions said that they no longer give as much merit aid as in the past. Has anyone else heard this?

Wow, I tried to log in but it says I entered an invalid email address or password, and when I try to change my password, it says " No account exists for this email address and birthdate." Anyone having the same issue?

@Eftar Hmm haven’t heard that before. You can send an email to the office of financial aid to ask.

@Ben576569 Nope. Just logged in now.

I’m not having a problem either.

so people are saying that decisions are coming out as soon as the 16th or 17th? oh my gosh that’s so soon! i thought they might send an email a week in advance informing us of the date and time, but i guess not- unless decisions come out later than expected

Does anyone know what time decisions will be released on the 17th?

At 7 pm probably. That’s when they released them in the past
Also, last year they sent an email two days before the decisions were posted to announce the notification date so we should know for sure on Tues/Wed
