Denial Came Today

<p>Hi,
Just wanted to note my denial came in the mail today. They gave an accompanying letter saying that they got 26,000 applications for 3600 spots. I wasn't expecting to get in because I had heard this, and judging those who were saying did get in, my stats were lower.
I did get into Syracuse with a nice scholarship. So It's all good.</p>

<p>Good luck to everyone.</p>

<p>So sorry you were no accepted. What were your stats?
I’m so worried I will also be denied…no letter yet.</p>

<p>Bel, what state do you live in? I live in NJ, still no response. I live less than an hour from UDel.</p>

<p>same as Oxi</p>

<p>I’m from NJ</p>

<p>Just got my rejection letter from Udel… I am sooooooooo disappointed! :(</p>

<p>@seashore - What are your stats?</p>

<p>GPA 3.88
SAT 1840
11 Honors classes all A’s
2 AP’s w/A
Earned Varsity letters in 4 sports
Volunteer work, and clubs
What else do they want???
I applied to Nursing program. Out of 26,000 applications I haerd they only send 300 acceptances to end up with a class of 125. Tough competition!
Good luck to all the rest of you!</p>

<p>I have no shot I have 83 UW and M670 CR530 and applied undecided but still have not heard, but it still says unknown error and it should have changed by now.</p>

<p>Seashore…I am rather shocked. Your stats should clearly be good enough to admit to a school like UDel. I think UDel was overloaded, big time, with applications from NJ this year…hence UDel’s need to be selective possibly in applicants from that state. Just a hunch but had you applied from a different state, perhaps a different result. Best of luck wherever you decide to go.</p>

<p>My son just got his denial today
Math 690
CR 580
Writing 560</p>

<p>A couple of AP Classes including Physics and Calculus ( which he has 95 averages in now)
He was on student council 4 years
Football Varsity letter
A few other sports
Volunteered over 400 hrs.
Worked</p>

<p>I just want to say that it is very brave of all of you to post your stats on line. They are all very very good. I know some people who attended U Del years ago, and they can not believe that the school is requiring the kinds of stats that it does now.</p>

<p>Just to make you laugh, one of the people I know who attended is laying down carpet for a living now. In the end, it is about you, not the university you attend. I know that you think differently now. But it is about you, and I am blown away by how great all of you are.</p>

<p>Good Luck!</p>

<p>I agree about the overload of applications from NJ. My son has about 300 in his graduating class (in Northern NJ) - about 100 of them applied to UDel.</p>

<p>If you lived in DE then you would have definitely gotten in.</p>

<p>Yes we have about 200 in graduating class and my son says about a 60 applied to U Del.</p>

<p>Donna…are you from NJ, too ?</p>

<p>7 kids from my school applied and 2 sent letters saying they would not attend, so maybe there is still hope.</p>

<p>Yes, Northern NJ</p>

<p>Denied</p>

<p>cr-700 Math - 680 writing 600</p>

<p>many ecs</p>

<p>gpa 86/100</p>

<p>guess the gpa bit back!</p>

<p>NJ</p>

<p>Oh god im so scared now, my letter still hasnt came but all the people denied have about the same stats as me and im from NJ :(</p>

<p>I just heard from a classmate who also applied to UDel, he applied undecided and his stats not as strong as mine and he was waitlisted. I applied to the nursing program ,which is highly competetive. Good luck!</p>
