CLASS OF 2020 REGULAR DECISION THREAD

@wendybk it says, “More information, including details about admission to special programs and/or need-based and merit aid, will be in your official offer letter and admitted student packet that will be mailed Friday, March 25th.”

1990 SAT 4.2 W 3.7 UW from Boston - Accepted
Freaking out!!!

@Puppy4 - thank you so much for the info.

Wait listed. Probably due to my lack of demonstrated interest. Oh well.

ACCEPTED!! 1450/2080 SAT 32 ACT

Rejected due to high need, saw it coming

The Committee on Admission has completed a review of all applications of international students requesting financial aid. We were impressed with your academic credentials, however, we are unable to offer you admission due to the high demand for international financial aid. More information will be forthcoming in your decision letter to be mailed Monday, March 28th. If you have any questions after you have received your letter, please feel free to contact our office at (610) 758-3100 or admissions@lehigh.edu.

Sincerely,

J. Leon Washington
Vice Provost of Admissions and Financial Aid

ACCEPTED!!! :smiley:

Hey accepted people, would you mind telling me your stats? I am quite confused as to why I was waitlisted…

is financial aid out?

wondering what more information i would receive in the mail, I was rejected already

My portal does not have a decision in it

Do you know how to access Financial Aid Info? or is that in the mail too?

Daughter was waitlisted. Kind of surprised after being accepted at UCLA and Colgate.

I think it comes in the mail

I’m so excited!!! I really want to know when accepted students day is :smiley:

@markpasenter2 yeah, I was rejected from JHU too, but hey we both got accepted :slight_smile:
