Class of 2016 Early Action Acceptance thread

<p>Haven't got any notification on my acceptance yet, but I just thought I'd make a thread for when people hear back, and so I get an e-mail when people reply to this post saying they got in, in which case I will become worried because I have yet to receive mine.</p>

<p>I applied for Computer Science, 1260 SAT (math/cr), 3.8 weighted GPA, in-state.
No extracurriculars - like a boss.</p>

<p>

It could take weeks for UMass to send out all the EA letters, so don’t panic if yours doesn’t come right away.</p>

<p>

:confused:</p>

<p>From the website:</p>

<p>Decision letters are mailed according to the following schedule: </p>

<pre><code> Term Decision letters are mailed
</code></pre>

<p>Freshman Early Action(fall only): end of December through mid-January
Freshman Regular decision(fall): mid-March through April
Freshman Regular decision(spring): October through December
Transfer Fall: March through June
Transfer Spring: October through December</p>

<p>did anyone in mass hear today? i applied the 27th to nursing, it was processed on the 31st (of oct) should mine be one of the first ones out or will it come later? the spire website has said my application is under review for about two weeks now</p>

<p>End of December at the earliest - so maybe we will start hearing around Christmas.</p>

<p>they started mailing yesterday tho</p>

<p>Oh, I am just going by what the website says - how do you know they started mailing already?</p>

<p>Just got the letter 5 mins ago. I got accepted with a 2.9 unweighted and 3.2 weighted…also had a 1710 SAT (all three sections) Lots of EC’s good luck everyone</p>

<p>I’m so anxious to get my letter. In constantly checking</p>

<p>Do they also put decisions online? Or do they just do mail?</p>

<p>Does anybody’s status still say application is under review?</p>

<p>Mine still does and it’s driving me crazy!!</p>

<p>S has a big thick envelope from Admissions sitting on the kitchen table… Waiting for him to get home from a swim meet…</p>

<p>ugh–still under review.
if i’m from MA, would that make the decisions come more quickly?</p>

<p>Based on 3 years ago and RD, I’m guessing UMass notification dates are unpredictable. My son was starting to get worried though he had no need to, but friends were getting letters and he hadn’t. Really, relax.</p>

<p>@cwodd66 when did u send in ur app and where do you live?</p>

<p>I got my acceptance letter today! I know a lot of people from my school still haven’t gotten theirs yet though.</p>

<p>I spoke to an admissions officer via email today and they said that the first batch of letters have been sent out earlier this week. They also said that you will receive a decision in the mail before it is updated online!</p>

<p>Hope this helps! Good luck!</p>

<p>@wannabanurse…My app was processed on October 24 and I live in CT. BTW it still says that my app is under review on the website so it appears that doesnt change so as long as it says under review expect a response quickly</p>

<p>Does UMASS do scholarships with the acceptance letter?</p>
