Clarification on my post #39 - major not mentioned in acceptance letter - applied as education major. I didn’t even look at the acceptance letter - LOL - only saw admitted and made an assumption.
D accepted!! OOS, 1450 SAT, 3.4W GPA.
Congrats to all those accepted!
Dear deferred students, remember — a deferral is not a rejection. I know the waiting is painful, but hang in there. Your day will come.
For those asking about merit — the letter says all financial aid and scholarship notifications will be end of March.

My daughter got admitted today. She applied business school marketing. Nothing in the acceptance says anything about marketing…nor does it say she was denied entrance to the business school. It just says congratulations you have been admitted to the undergraduate program. What does this mean?
JMU doesn’t restrict their majors as some schools do. She is free to choose whatever major she wants and change it as she likes. You aren’t accepted into specific major at JMU - your just accepted.
DD got accepted today! instate .

@01hockeymom – as @cbl1 says, JMU does not accept by major. With the exception of the performing and visual arts majors (which also require acceptance into the major through an audition or portfolio review) all admitted/matriculated students may declare any major at JMU, and may change major. There are some majors that require students to formally apply for admissions to the major once students are in classes at JMU, after a semester to a few semesters of required requisite coursework, earning a specific GPA, and/or completing other requirements. Ex. Marketing, Management, Media Arts and Design, Communications, among others… if you go to the online catalog you can see which majors are restricted (either at entry… like performing and visual arts, which are restricted at a point after declaring and taking requisite coursework… like Communications, and which are open for all students to declare and continue in without any later restrictions other than keeping on track with requirements.
Our D was accepted. That’s all it said. Accepted. She’s happy.
congrats everyone
Congrats @fairfaxgator ! On the portal, there is a link to the acceptance letter, with info on accepted student days and other details. Can’t recall exactly where the link was right now, but it may have been just clicking on the word ‘Accepted’.
