<p>garztan - they have to log onto myBucknell</p>
<p>Waitlist. 30 ACT, 3.8 w, 7 AP’s, varsity athlete, good EC’s, from CA. DD took a risk and was a bit silly with the essays. Not a big disappointment as she has been admitted to schools higher on her list, and she likely won’t accept the waitlist spot, but nice not to be rejected.</p>
<p>Congratulations to everyone who receives an acceptance!</p>
<p>Accepted to chemical engineering! 2250 sat, 3.94 uw gpa.</p>
<p>I GOT IN!!! 3.9 GPA, 2390 SATs and I only got $25,000 a year 
I was realllly hoping for more, so congrats to me!!!</p>
<p>Fly, how did you find out about your financial award? Was it online?</p>
<p>Accepted!! I’m surprised because I have 29 ACT no SATs or subject tests. 3.8 GPA and 4.0 weighted. 3 APs. I think FIRST robotics helped and the fact that my dad is an alumni. Still extremely excited!!</p>
<p>Waitlisted for engineering. 3.96 UW GPA, 2140 SAT, 32 ACT, 790 Math II 730 Chem. 7 AP’s, Job, good essay</p>
<p>Waitlisted 
1400/2050 SATs, 3.6 UW, 3.8 W, 2 Sport Captain</p>
<p>Very disappointed, I thought I a legit shot to get in. Although reading other people’s decisions, I’m not too surprised I was. I didn’t show any interest, my essays were mediocre, and my recommendations probably were horrible (not because I’m a bad kid, moreso my teachers aren’t too bright).</p>
<p>Accepted! Engineering with 99.67/100 Weighted GPA, 2240 SAT, 8 APs, and very very bad essays. I did have a lot of ECs that were related to engineering though- including internships. Did anyone get scholarships/financial aid info with their acceptance?</p>
<p>Waitlisted: SAT: 1490/2220, GPA: 4.1, 6 APs, Math II: 780, Chem: 740. Pretty disappointed for my son. Bucknell was one of his top 3, and most likely of getting into as other 2 are Ivys. Maybe for the best though - he’s definitely a math/science guy (HS - 2yrs Chem, 2yrs Physics, 2 yrs Calc, AP Comp Sci, Intro Eng) and they are a LA school - I was never impressed with their engineering.</p>
<p>Rejected with 1330/1980 SAT (590 CR, 740 M, 650 W) and 30 ACT (25 R, 35 E, 34 M, 30S). 4.038 weighted GPA, great essays, awesome recs, and I showed a lot of interest (they acknowledged this in the letter). I thought being a girl applying into engineering would help, but I guess not. Pretty sure much of my rejection came from inability to pay considering 3 not-so-smart catholic school girls in this area got in. Need blind my a**!</p>
<p>Waitlisted with 1770 (570 W, 690M, 510 CR) and 105 TOEFL.</p>
<p>Accepted, 4.0 UW GPA and 4.4 W, 2260 SAT…</p>
<p>Does anyone know when/where merit (and financial, but that’s less important to me) aid information will be available?</p>
<p>I am just curious…</p>
<p>Did anyone who needed a LOT of financial aid get accepted? My son had stats above stats they list as the norm. He got rejected. However, we would have needed a lot of aid. Just curious about how much the need-aware factor may have played in this.</p>
<p>Accepted
SAT: 2220; 800 CR 670 M 750 W
SAT II: 780 US History 750 Lit 720 Math I 660 Span w/ listening
GPA: 4.0
Rank: 1/47
Decent EC’s
Pretty good essays
Recs should’ve been stunning</p>
<p>Maggiedog: needed a LOT of financial aid.</p>
<p>My EFC is 0 so yeah I’d say I need a LOT of financial aid, haha. I was accepted</p>
<p>It’s good to hear that they were generous with some of you. I think that for my son, his stats were not stellar - not like yours, izt, with a rank of 1 - good for you! I suspect that if someone is above the norm, but not stellar, perhaps fin. need may play a part.</p>
<p>maggiedog - A colleague of mine had her daughter get accepted with need for a great deal of financial aid. EFC of 0000 I believe. GPA was 3.7 or so and SAT scores were 2100. Stellar essays and truly incredible extra-curriculars (international fame).</p>
<p>Not sure Golfengineer realizes that Bucknell is both an excellent LAC but also is ranked #9 nationally by USNWR for best undergraduate engineering programs. The engineering school (as well as the school of management) are extremely competitive for admission, accepting only about 20-23% of applicants each year.</p>
<p>Villanova and Bucknell were notorious this year for not accepting those who may be “overqualified” and applying to the school only for a safety. They put them on the waitlist to see if they take any initiative to get accepted. 2350 SAT, 780 math 2 SAT 2, 760 History SAT 2, 6 APs, and 4.0 unweighted GPA and waitlisted. Not upset because, as Bucknell correctly assumed, this was a safety school for me. But congrats to all who were accepted!(:</p>
