<p>I’ve been wanting to ask… did anyone get that email Friday night saying how they had more applications than they have ever received and how this year’s applicant pool is highly competitive? The email also said that they started mailing decisions out that evening and will continue for the next couple weeks. The message was really specific and kind of scared me … it went all into how applicants will hear either one of three admission decisions: accepted, deferred or rejected. Did any of y’all get this?! I haven’t seen anyone post about it.</p>
<p>I called SMU this morning, said they were rolling out the decisions now and we would hear by the end of the month! Ugh! Daughter got onto TCU, waiting for SMU. AGONIZING!!</p>
<p>Accepted from NC (engineering, computer science). Rather surprised as no campus visit and no correspondence with admission counselors. Sent in app and essay to see if they accepted me. Father had offices in Chicago and Dallas when we lived in Chicago and was always impressed with the school.</p>
<p>Also accepted: Va Tech, Purdue and NC State (computer science/software engineering)</p>
<p>Sanfranmom and others - our mail came at 11:15 am pst to the SF Bay Area - no SMU envelope. Walked onto the porch at 6:30 pm and there it was. Guess the mailman didn’t want to bend the beautiful package. Waited 6 extra hours for nothing! Check your porches! Acceptance obviously, provost scholarship.</p>
<p>I just received my SMU acceptance today! very exciting!! I live in Los Angeles, California and applied early action. I’m sure the rest of all the letters are on there way.</p>
