Class of 2023 Admissions Decisions / Discussion - University of Delaware

@seashell123456 - If a decision is ready you should have received an email that states there is an update to your application which included information on how to log in to mybluehen

We saw admissions decision prior to the email mentioned above because we knew the mybluehen login information which was provided via email shortly after application was submitted.

I would check your email. I hope this helps

To contact the admissions board, would you guys mail them or email them? I want it to be added to my admissions file but I really donā€™t know which is better

Iā€™m not sure what information you are trying to add to your file, but I would give them a call.

Itā€™s been 4 weeks now since my son received a decision on 12/20, with no word on merit scholarship money. He has a 1490 with a 4.1 GPA, multiple AP classes since sophomore year and many extra curriculars. He has had to do a ā€œcitizenship verificationā€ for other schools by showing his passport but Delaware has not said anything about it. Do you think heā€™ll receive it soon or should we contact them?

Has anyoneā€™s portal update yesterday or today? We are still waiting for our decision since 9/29.

Got Accepted into Finance literally a few hours ago :slight_smile:

  • International
  • 39 IB Predicted
  • SAT Not Required (Submitted for scholarship consideration)
  • Amazing EC's
  • Hopefully Amazing Recs

@JoelEmbiid21 I would encourage you to contact Admissions, because your sonā€™s stats are in range for a decent scholarship. My daughter was accepted to Nursing and Honors Programs also on 12/20. Her financial aid award appeared on the BlueHen portal on Jan. 10th, including a Trustee Scholarship. We filed the FAFSA in late November. I understand that they generally send a separate letter about merit scholarships. I am not sure if she received a separate letter or if we only found out on the FA award notice. Good luck!

S19 received an email letting him know he can apply to the various honors scholars program by following the link on his My Blue Hen home page. But there is no link on his page. Anyone have any insight?

same here. Daughter got a packet today in the mail about scholars and fellows. Nothing on portal

Same here, she is in the honors program, has the trustee scholarship, and got a an envelope with information on the scholars and fellows, but she didnā€™t seem interested.

Hi everyone! I was deferred from the nursing program on 12/14. Since then, I changed my major to biology and have been waiting for a response. Does anyone have an idea on when i will probably be contacted about a decision? Iā€™ve been waiting so long and the wait is killing me lol! Udel is my top school! My SAT is a 1240 and my GPA is a 4.0. What do you think my chances are? Do you think I will likely get in?

DD also got the packet in the mail to apply to the Scholars and Fellows via the link in her portal but there is only a World Scholars Interview link, which doesnā€™t interest her. It sounds like all of the Scholars options should be in the portal based on the letter and description on the individual cards. Has anyone had luck with this? Thanks!

@collegegal20 My d got in with a 1240 and 3.8 UW(4.4w). She applied accounting and was accepted business undeclared. No merit offered so far (accepted 12/7), donā€™t think there is any coming. It is her top choice but since we are oos it is not going to be a financial fit.

Got the Scholars and fellows in mail today and donā€™t see a tab either.

Same here - scholars and fellows arrived in mail today - nothing on portal

DD was only accepted a week or so ago (was not EA). Weā€™re in a similar situation in terms of being out of state. Currently UDel comes in at about 7-8K more per year than other equal quality schools she has been accepted to. Iā€™m hoping they will send some merit offer her way, to allow us to include them in the decision process, because she really liked UD when she visited, and also loves their course catalog options. But as parents helping to pay for this, weā€™d have to veto an extra 38K out of pocket.

@HankCT have u used their net price calculator? Others have said it came in pretty close to what they received. I got zero as my result when I did it.

Scholars and Fellows application now on daughters portal. Under financial aid info

correction, below financial aid info
