Decision date

<p>thanks! I’m out of state (CT)</p>

<p>Received my acceptance letter today. Reside in CT, in-state residency through a parent though. Transfer student, political science major.</p>

<p>Congrats M11191! I know the wait was killing you ;-)</p>

<p>congrats M11191! So happy you got in!..sadly i am still waiting :(</p>

<p>haha im absolutely suprised you get the mail before i do, congrats man, you must be so relieved right now</p>

<p>Yeah but don’t worry, because other than my one semester of college, my high school grades were pretty bad, probably around a 2.7.</p>

<p>Got my acceptance today, but not in the major I wanted. I will still consider attending. I am going to visit next week.</p>

<p>got the big fat envelope today!!!
GPA:3.174/5.5 (came from a relatively competitive school and i think ranked #2 public school in Mass)
no APs
SAT: 660M/440CR
TOEFL:87 (iBT)
in state
volunteered in a language school for two years (about 240hs)</p>

<p>did not get in mechanical engineering though, but no doubt going as a undeclared student!</p>

<p>i will see you around campus M11191 lol</p>

<p>Hey does anyone know if we get the envelope first or the email? bcus online it keeps saying that my application is ‘under review’</p>

<p>You’ll get the envelope first and then your online status will change a few days later…
Don’t use the online application status system, its not accurate</p>

<p>okk,thnxx soo muchh. when did u recieve your letter? and what state are you from if u dont mind answering? Im from CT and i wanna know when i should expect the letter</p>

<ol>
<li>Accepted :D</li>

</ol>

<p>they started sending out letters the first week of March, which is when majority of people at my school got their decisions, i just got mine yesterday and i believe they mail out at random and will keep mailing out until around april 15th, so you get another two weeks or so</p>

2) 3.54 GPA & around top 30%
3) 1820 / 1880 super SATs , 26 ACTs
4) In-state, Asian, Female, First Gen.</p>

<p>i feel very alone… i havent heard back yet!</p>

<p>You’re hardly alone, forreal100…I’ve been checking on behalf of my son, who submitted his app on Jan 5…and still nothing.</p>

<p>I’m a UMass grad myself and we live about a mile from the campus. Another day or so and I may just drive over to the Admissions office and say, “hey guys, what’s UP?!” </p>

<p>Then again, this is UMass. It’s a very big machine, and the gears are never completely in sync.</p>

<p>It’s really too bad, because all of his other schools responded at least a month ago, so they’re really keeping him in limbo…</p>

<p>-dF</p>

<p>yeah, im in the same boat my application was processed on Jan 4th, everyone else i know has heard…ive heard from every other college, but UMASS and its my top choice so the anticipation is killing me. </p>

<p>Thanks for the support dF</p>

<p>i know people who applied later than me had gotten their big fat envelope almost a month before i got mine and i know people who literally applied the night before deadline day and still received theire decision at the beginning of march. </p>

<p>anyways best luck to you and everyone whos still waiting the letter!</p>

<p>I know i sent mine in on Dec. 15 and still haven’t heard back
Im kinda worried at this point.
My dad went there along with my uncle and both enjoyed it. so i hope to get in.
I have heard back from many of my other colleges but not Umass
many kids in my grade have heard back. but me and just a few kids havent
when i went to the office they said i should get a responds by monday well i have ugg. </p>

<p>I hope everyone has good luck</p>

<p>My son hasn’t heard yet so he is in the same boat as well. I noticed on the UMass website that there is a FAQ about the wait list process. Not sure if that was there before. Perhaps those who haven’t heard yet will be wait listed?</p>
