Bucknell University Class of 2021 Applicant Discussion

I got the email too. Is there anyone who did not get the email?

What does the email mean? Is it a good sign if you received that email?

I think they’re sending it to everyone just to make sure they aren’t reviewing applications that were meant to be withdrawn and stuff. Doesn’t mean anything good or bad, I just wanted to know if people got it

got the email too.

Is there anyone who didn’t recieve that e-mail?(asking if you’re still interested or not,)

No it seems like everyone received this. As I said above they’re wanting to make sure they aren’t reading apps from people who are no longer interested

If you’re not a URM, is it worth applying for the STEM scholarship? The letter I received specifically mentioned that the program was for demographics underrepresented in STEM, and as a white male I highly doubt I qualify. Does anybody know if any of the previous scholars were not URMs?

Is bi-racial (White/Mexican) counted as URM?

Probably

Is the Dean’s Scholarship included only in the acceptance letter?

What is everyone’s stats? I’m starting to become nervous, it’s so hard to wait for the decisions to come out!

Does anyone know when and how the decision comes out (letter, email, posted on portal)?

@zbday11, don’t worry about stats. Idk if your school has Naviance, but they have these charts called Scattergrams that plot the stats (test & GPA) for each student accepted, rejected, deferred, etc from your school. I have learned from this that stats must only get you through the first cut, because they don’t seem to be any guarantee.

@bluenette23 My school does not have Naviance, although I’ve heard of it before

@Emsmom1 They come out on the 29th via portal

@zbday11 Do you know at what time on the 29th?

Anyone know where Preisdential Scholar decisions will be available? Will that be in the portal on the 29th as well?

It is supposed to come with FA. And FA comes via snail mail. @SleeplsTemporary

Any likely letters?
