Has anyone who applied computer science hear back yet? I didn’t yet I’m thinking the decisions come out regarding majors.

I think so too. I am comp sc and have not heard. I dont think I have seen any comp sc engg acceptance from others. My guess is they release by major.

I think everyone that is getting in around now are the people that got academic scholarships.

Comp Sci here too, haven’t heard anything yet.
Me as well. Have not heard anything.
My son applied Computer Science also in November. We are still waiting to hear.
Does anyone know how many applications Clemson has received to date? Just curious if they received an increase due to being on Common App and also being test optional.
My son and I did a virtual tour last week and the admissions counselor said they ususally get about 29K apps and this year they were already around 40K. I’ve read this has been the case at most schools especially the more competitive schools.
Something else that also likely came into play is their move to the Common App this year–my understanding is that most schools have a Common App lift the year they move to it and that they then tend to expect their yield to be a little lower and accept at a higher rate. That doesn’t mean it will fully cancel out a 10k plus increase in applications of course though.

oops missed that someone else already mentioned the Common App boost. 
Were any decisions released today?
I certainly didn’t get any notification. I applied August 1st, have what I consider pretty good stats and I am getting frustrated and discouraged.

I completely understand this.
My daughter heard a couple of weeks ago but she and I were feeling the same way. She knew she had the grades and test scores to qualify for merit aid (let alone admission), but week after week - nothing.
Finally, she heard - why did it take so long to make a decision on her application when others applied in November and heard within weeks? It’s so disconcerting and brings about so many negative feelings.
I don’t think Clemson will end up being a realistic option for my daughter - she’s cooled on the school since we did a walk around in October and will (if scholarships remain the same as last year) likely have better financial offers at more preferred schools, but the process is agonizing.
Just know that the admission doesn’t even really help because they don’t tell you anything about scholarships, just that you will get one. Unless Clemson is your one and done, you’re just as in the dark after being admitted as you were before.

I think this is a terrible move on Clemsons part. My son has also not heard from Clemson, but has heard from 5 other schools, all acceptances with significant merit aid that was disclosed immediately. He has already started to see himself at 2 of those schools, one in particular, so it would take a significant scholarship to sway him back to Clemson. There really is something to hearing early and starting to envision yourself somewhere.

Same. The longer other schools take, the more excited my D is getting about the schools that have already offered admission, honors college and significant merit $.
Same here. My daughter heard from Clemson in December, but there are many that won’t be until Feb/March that were originally top choices for her. But now that she excited about these others, the originals are dropping for her.
I feel incredibly discouraged by Clemsons admissions process this year. I do believe that I am qualified, hopefully, I would 100% attend. It definitely causes hurt feelings when people are hearing from my school, and I have not. I wish there was something more I can do, but I just have to wait.
