@ThatGirlCoder oh yea I see what you mean and those seem like good reasons so hopefully we end up getting accepted. Good Luck to you!
Good news for those getting those emails. Are you all engineering students so far or also science majors? DD is biology/neuroscience and no email so far
Actually, just looked it up on the website and see it’s a pretty select and small group. So congrats to all who have received the email!!
I am planning to major in engineering so far. @myjanda
Just an FYI for those who received a STEM scholars invite - the website says"The program encourages applications from students who are underrepresented in STEM fields — first-generation college, low income, multicultural and women students in particular. I’m guessing if you got the invite you’re probably going to be accepted. I think admission standards may be a little lower than the average which would explain some of the earlier posts. Congrats!
are you applying to Bucknell @maha5261
^ From “mahas” earlier post, it looks like they may be a parent of a kid applying to UVA Engineering. The profile shows one post as if they are a student and another as if they are a parent. Likely another parent posting on behalf of their kid.
who else is going to check the Bucknell portal at 12 am?
12:00 AM when?
The 25th. That’s when decisions are released
Maha5261…why would you think the acceptance standard maybe lower? Because it’s saying multicultural, low income, first generation or women?? My D got the email and she has high stats, straight A’s, numerous ECs…I don’t consider her to be in a lower standard of acceptance rates…she has been accepted into Purdue, Colorado School of Mines, University of Illinios, University of Colorado Boulder and Texas A & M. Maybe I’m misreading your post?
@Lana22 Neh, it’s very doubtful I will remember or even really care too much at that point. The results will still be there the net morning and I value my sleep too much. Good Luck.
thanks you too. It will all work out.
decisions will be released on the 25th right?
yes at 12 am
Confirmed from the Admissions office this morning - Decisions will be released on the 28th during the day. No specific time was provided. All students should check their portal and an update link will be provided within the portal. Admitted students will receive a hard copy packet in the mail at a later time. Good Luck to all.
The 28th or 25th???
^ Good grief. The 28th. I just talked to them a little while ago. Feel free to call them to confirm on your own. Good Luck.
But online it says the 25th
Karlmarx2020…no need to get snippy…just wanted to confirm as it states VERY CLEARLY the 25th on their website.
