Hey everyone! I am new to the thread, and I am applied as a Clemson priority admissions contestant. Currently, Clemson is very high up on my list. I was deferred ED from U of Richmond. I am the president of my school, test optional, NHS, varsity athlete, tutor, and a bunch more school related volunteer work. I am out of state. I applied on 10/6 but did not chose if I wanted to be test optional or not until 11/9. I did not apply for any financial aid.
When do you think I will receive a decision? I am applied as a Computer Science major, and backup as an English major.
That would depend on your stats (gpa, wgpa, class rank and test scores if available). A very small percentage of students hear early; however, the vast majority of applicants will hear in mid February.
Hello! I’m also new to this thread, and I applied to Clemson at the end of August. Besides from being deferred from my ED school back in October (not sure I will get in RD), Clemson is my top choice. My grades freshman and sophomore year were not the best, but junior and senior year I have ~ UW 3.89/W 4.06 (strong upward trend). I applied test optional. 4 year varsity athlete, summer internship at a well known company, tutor, many clubs, lots of volunteer work, summer business program at a university. I didn’t apply for any financial aid. I’m OOS. I applied as a Marketing major, and sociology as backup. I really really hope I get in… I’m expecting a decision in February.

Anyone watch Safety yet?
Wow, it was a great family movie about Clemson.
I had read Clemson was proud of the movie and now I know why.
It was filmed mostly on campus and gives a very positive view of the Clemson Family. The movie definitely has kept the school high on my son’s list. If you are looking for a movie with a positive message about overcoming obstacles, or have any desire to go to the school, you need to watch this movie!

Everyone was pausing to see if we could find ourselves/our kids in the background. It’s not every day you get to be in a movie.
