@Drewbiemom in state or OOS and what is your class rank?
it says oos @mweb136
thank you @pl215382 what about class rank? They are very big on that as well.
What if your school doesn’t rank like mine? @mweb136
@pl215382 they do have a way of figuring out approximately what you ranking would be even if your school does not officially rank. That would not prevent you from getting accepted or from getting merit if everything else was there.
rank not good, like 187/405, so almost middle of pack. it’s a very good public school where like 95% of kids go to college. grades are not as high as many due to only taking 1 AP in Jr. year and now 2 this year. hoping SAT 1320 will help.
@Drewbiemom when I called the business school they told me the average admitted student this year had a 1340-1380 SAT so not far off. Good Luck!
@mweb136 Any idea when they will start sending out the $7500 scholarships? Was hoping it would be right about now…
@TexasStudent2018 A batch did go out last year around Dec 21st.
@TexasStudent2018 my friend who got their 7500 said they received theirs December 19th last year so hopefully this week! Fingers and toes crossed for us all. Also, someone mentioned they called this week and was informed a bunch were going out the week before Christmas.
Would those $ announcements be sent to those who already know they got in, or along with an admitted letter?
@Drewbiemom the scholarship offer comes in your acceptance letter.
Hi my daughter applied to Clemson but is waiting to hear back… she is an OOS with a 4.0 unweighted average about 15% in her class and a 29 ACT. She applied to the business school… anyone know her chances of getting in and possibly getting the $7,500 scholarship?? LMK, thanks!
@heygurl180 what state are you from? I think your daughter has a great chance for the 7500 scholarship. My son is from NJ and we have just been told by admissions that even though he applied the first day august 1st NJ, VA and MA are extremely backed up with applicants and they have not even gotten to theirs yet. My son also applied to the business school. 1420 SAT, 3.87 GPA, 4 AP, 11 dual enrollment, etc. top 20%. They said he looks like an outstanding candidate and we hope to hear after the winter break.
@mweb136 We are from NY! She has 7 AP and a pretty good spa we are just worried about the ACT score not being high enough, what do you think?
@heygurl180 I was accepted last week with a 3.85 UW 4.2 W 29 ACT 3 APs and 5 honors so I bet your daughter will be fine. I received the $7500 per year. I am from IL.
@heygurl180 i think she qualifies. You can actually go to Clemson’s net price calculator and they will tell you if she qualifies for merit by filling out their questions.
@mweb136 and @camcam2022 thank you! Anyone else from NY with a 29 ACT receive a letter yet?
Also, @camcam2022 what is your approximate class rank?
