Hello my daughter applied computer science as her first choice and also to the dean scholar honors program on 10/15. She is an automatic admit, we have not seen any change on our my status- just wondering if anyone trying for computer science or deans scholars has heard anything? Goodluck to all!!

My D also applied to CS in September and the Turing honors and has not heard back either on her major. So far, I have not seen any CS admits. I think we are going to have to wait a bit longer. Good luck to you!

My son did get accepted to CS on Tuesday. Nothing on Turing yet. (he’s auto-admit)

4

D applied for CS and Turing in August. Notified of CS acceptance 11/18. Auto admit. No word on Turing. Did not apply to Deans.

Oh and my son’s application for CS was complete 10/13 and Turing complete 10/14 (just for reference). He’s not a get-it-in early kid.

Thanks for the info and congratulations to all that have heard about their acceptances. Hopefully, my D will be hearing soon.

Thank you for all of the replies and congratulations, still have our fingers crossed!

Yay. D got into Turing today. Sorry I posted this is wrong thread a min ago. :slight_smile: check mailboxes. Snail mail

Mine also got the letter with a Turing acceptance today. Mystatus still shows in review, so I do think notifications come first via mail.

Congratulations! I thought Turing program would mail acceptances a lot later than they did. I’m nervously awaiting my own decision, and I was wondering if you could post your kids’ stats.

@bookmom7, congratulations to your son! I was wondering when your son was notified of his acceptance to CS? My DD is still waiting to hear back from Turings. She got accepted to CS in December. And again congratulations - I’m glad your waiting is over.
