I probably won’t go here even if I get in, but still eagerly awaiting the decision! Good luck!
Maybe releasing after the Ivies gives Bucknell a boost among the students who didn’t get admitted to the Ivies . . . it is odd timing. Georgetown is after the Ivies too, which is also weird (as is the fact that it does not accept the Common App). It’s all a mystery at a certain point–good luck to all.
good luck everyone!
couple minutes!!!

this sis was rejected, oh well.

Wait listed and super bummed
wait listed and not surprised lol. I have 12 other choices so it is what is
Wait list as expected. No worries. Without merit aid, which I know he is low on the scale for, we could have bought a small cottage on the lake or gone to Bucknell. Enjoy all! Lots of good choices for my S. (Applied for engineering. 1320 SAT 3.75 GPA. Multi year triple sport Varsity team captain. Bad standardized test taker. ?)
My son was rejected (1410 SAT 720M 690V 90 weighted avg; 6 APs, applied for arts/science.

From North Carolina
Major: Mechanical Engineering
SAT: 1470
GPA: 4.5, 3.8
ECs: Co-Founder of school’s movie club, First President of School’s Tech Team, Collaboration with different religious organizations around town, an after-school engineering course with my teachers.
Recommenders: Physics/APUSH/Engineering(EC) Teacher I had a 5 on the exam last year with him and he generally thinks highly of me, and my Computer Science teacher who I also have a great relationship with.
Essays: My love of engineering and how my childhood observing the world (specifically Disney World) around me has led to a want to contribute and change the world through what I can create.
I’m pretty excited, I got into Villanova as well a week or so ago for my second-choice major so I’m happy to be accepted at a great school for mechanical engineering.
Anybody know how they handle merit notifications (if applicable)? Separate communication, or part of acceptance language in the portal?
