what states are you all from?</p>
<p>Someone told me that only College of Engineering heard today, and that’s what I applied to.</p>
<p>I’m actually crying right now from happiness!!! I was just waitlisted from Bucknell last night, and Lehigh and Bucknell were my top choices (and my two target schools). </p>

[/ul]General Comments:
I cannot wait to attend Lehigh!</p>
<p>Daughter has no messages on portal… we live in Maryland. I don’t understand why they notify some right away and make the rest of us wait…</p>
<p>Among the few selected for diversity life weekend and got my letter early (about 2 1/2 weeks ago). I think it was honestly a miracle, and blessing. I know there are far better candidates with outstanding credentials who did not get in or got waitlisted, but i am beyond elated that they recognized me and accepted me. I didnt think I had a chance at all.

<p>Brother went to Lehigh - great school</p>
<p>I didn’t apply to the engineering school & I was informed of my acceptance last night. (I live on long island). The portal said decisions were mailed on friday… 95 UW GPA, 101 W GPA and 33 on ACT… Hoping for some scholarship $</p>
<p>I was waitlisted. :|</p>
<p>Rejected, saddened because it was one of my top choices. Two people from the senior class last year were accepted. It is okay though, I have Northwestern and Brandeis with full rides :)</p>
<p>How are the people with 2000+ sat waitlisted? They look ideal for lehigh!</p>
<p>I was ACCEPTED (Engineering) with 1270 (680M and 550R). My GPA was 102 weighted and I was 24/576. Regular amount of EC’s, no interview, and only AP courses for senior year. But i did write a good essay lol.</p>
<p>I was waitlisted with a 1480/1600 SAT and my rank was 33/434. Do I have a chance at being accepted?</p>
<p>Accepted!</p>

Not too many ECs freshman-junior year, but a ton of them senior year.
No interview
9 AP courses, 4 Senior year
General upward trend in grades</p>
<p>I’m actually pretty surprised I got in, since I’ve been waitlisted from Villanova and Bucknell. Lehigh’s one of my top choices, so if they give me a decent financial aid package I’ll probably end up attending Lehigh next year!</p>
<p>Congratulations everyone who has been accepted!!
Like some others here, I too have no information on the portal, am I looking in the wrong place?

<p>metrobass, do you think villanova, bucknell and lehigh are equals when it comes to engineering?</p>
<p>I was under the impression that they were all pretty similar with regard to engineering, but that Bucknell and Lehigh’s programs were slightly better than Villanova’s. I’m not entirely sure if that’s the case, so feel free to correct me if I’m wrong.</p>
<p>And yeah, that’s the right site. On the “Welcome” tab, there should be several categories such as “Dean’s Message”, “Financial Aid”, and “Personal Announcements”. One of these categories is “Admissions Decision”, which is where it should say whether you’ve been accepted. Maybe it’s minimized or something like that.</p>
<p>Anybody know if there’s a way to reset the portal account? I locked myself out trying to remember my password.</p>
<p>Accepted!</p>
<p>700 CR, 740 M, 790 W

<p>So far have gotten into Northeastern and Villanova, received a likely letter from UVA. Waitlisted to Bucknell, which really surprised me, but I think they could tell I wasn’t very interested and considered it a safety. </p>
<p>Does anyone know how we find out about acceptance into the Integrated Business and Engineering program?</p>
