No rollout. Was his application complete? Did he go back in after submitting and do the self reported grades that were required? Does his portal say he applied early action? If he did and app was complete he should have gotten a decision.
We went through the self reported grades. Iâll get him to look againâŠ

Not 1st choice, but would have been nice to know now if it was a contender!
Admissions doesnât review applications until all material has been submitted. So the deferral may just mean they didnât have time to review it yet with the huge number that came in at the deadline. Donât be discouraged - it wasnât a denial and thatâs a great thing!

Older brother is currently a junior at Clemson but was also deferred and eventually accepted
To be honest, I wasnât overly surprised today because this seems to be the same pattern that happened with UGA a couple of weeks ago. He was also deferred there, but accepted with merit at Auburn.
These schools are getting much more competitive

Irish dancer (8+ years) nationally ranked. Founder and president of two clubs. Significant amount of volunteer hours. Three years of paid work experience. 1st chair violin/orchestra/MELOS.

Not much in the way of extracurriculars/sports
My first two are only separated by two years⊠and I do believe it is getting harder and harder every year. Scared for my DD2 and DS2 who will be going down this road in just a few years.
How did you get summer start? I thought they were not announcing that until next round.

In SC, that cohort of graduates would have taken the SAT or ACT as a state requirement at their HS, so that shifts that number.
Accepted! I applied as a SC homeschooled student with a 3.9 UW GPA (no test scores considered), & with a lot of Extracurricular & Volunteer Experiences. Unfortunately I am going to withdraw my application because I was accepted at another school where I applied ED1-

Are all palmetto fellows candidates accepted to Clemson?
Typically, all in-state at that level who apply are accepted. Depending on timing of the application it may not be in their major and for many that state money is their only merit. Many end up doing better for their total cost at USC or out of state. They typically get their first choice in majors, but not always.
In theory, there are some who qualify later than the end of their junior year or fall of Senior year, so some may not be accepted, but later qualify (they get those 10 extra SAT points, etcâŠ)
