Brandeis university class of 2020 regular decision thread

Did they post any information about merit aid?

Nothing about aid, just that it should come out soon

accepted! honestly at first Brandeis wasn’t on my top choice list but it’s really grown on me and I’m seriously considering going there! Congrats to everyone else who got in and to those who didn’t, keep your head up because I’m sure there is another place waiting for you :slight_smile:

Didn’t get an email but decisions are up and I got in! Don’t wait for an email, just log into the portal!

Accepted! 2400 SAT, 4.64 W GPA, strong ECs/essays. Didn’t visit. I was invited to apply to the LSC. Do people know when LSC decisions or merit aid info will be released?

Also, did everyone who was invited to apply for LSC get in? It’d be good to confirm the correlation for future years. So I guess the better question is did anyone who was invited to apply for LSC NOT get in?

I was invited to apply for an LSC and was offered admission

No email, but checked portal. Kid is in. Thrilled.

ACCEPTED! No news about LSC and merit aid decisions?

Waitlisted. 3.83 unweighted and 4+ weighted. I’m in like 20 school clubs and am very involved in the community and have leadership positions in my local organizations. In addition I’ve recieved many school, regional, and state awards. I had a 30 ACT superscored. I didn’t retake it because I thought that my extracurriculars would make up for my somewhat low score but I guess not :frowning:

Accepted, 3.78 unweighted, 4.56 weighted. 33 superscored ACT. Invited to apply to LSC and I did. Waiting to hear about LSC and merit scholarshipsss

Accepted to Brandeis. I am super excited, the school is a perfect fit for me!! Female, out of state. 3.9 GPA UW, SATs 760 CR 740 Math 650 Writing- 2170 total. ECs include competitive figure skating, research, key club, and political advocacy. Showed a lot of interest and had good essays and recs. Will be a biochem major. Does anyone know when the QBreC decisions will come out or if I have a possibility of receiving any merit aid at this point. I applied for financial aid, but I know it won’t cover everything so I’m crossing my fingers!

Got in! Safety school is locked down!

@welcometomylife , do you mind sharing what state you’re in? That could have something to do with it

Looks like from everyone posting here that they haven’t posted anything regarding merit yet. S got in.

I got invited to apply for QBReC about a month ago… did anyone else?

So something I’ve been curious about: A week or so ago my kid was invited to participate in an online forum about extracurriculars, etc. I wondered if that was a sign. So, from folks who now have their results – was there any correlation between being invited to participate in that forum and admission, or was it totally arbitrary? (In which case, whoa, weird tease.)

Waitlisted. 2290 SAT, 4.0 GPA UW. Strong ECs and essays. Though an international asking for aid.

@porcupine98 are you referring to the “Live chat with Brandeis students?”

Accepted! Was also invited to apply for LSC.
