<p>My friend got her acceptance e-mail an hour ago...I was lurking on the acceptance thread and someone said that the first wave of acceptances/waitlists are out, and that the second wave will be rejections....i hope that's not true syracuse is my first choice .__.</p>
<p>did anyone not get in?
if so what were your stats so i can see where i fit in.</p>
<p>one of my friends on facebook did. he updated his status so that’s how i know, can’t give you a time or anything but they must’ve sent out rejections too. i haven’t heard anything yet so i guess it’s another week from now</p>
<p>ugh, well good luck!</p>
<p>They send acceptances and rejections in each wave - there will be three waves.</p>
<p>now my real question is how do they decide these waves and why not just release them all at once? i can’t seem to figure it out since i applied mid-October</p>
<p>I received an acceptance email from Syracuse on the 18 (yesterday) at 4:41 pm.

<p>yrod124 - congratulations on your acceptance. But $5K/yr is hardly ‘good’ in the big picture - it’s a $55K/year school! Curious to hear if this is typical and what others got. Again, congrats on getting in.</p>
<p>My guess is that yrod124 meant her package brought her cost of attendance to $5000 a year- if that’s true its a great package…not sure though??</p>
<p>oh sorry for not clarifying, i meant that the school covers about 50k so i only have to pay around 5k</p>
<p>Still waiting…</p>
<p>Hoping I get my email in the second wave!</p>
<p>I have twins who both applied to Syracuse. One accepted yesterday (Fri, 3/18) via email at 1:15 PM to School of Health and Exercise Science (we live in San Francisco) and one hasn’t heard and applied to School of Communications. Quite tense in our household!</p>
<p>yrod124 - that’s an incredible scholorship! That’s excellent.</p>
<p>When will the second wave go out?</p>
<p>I want to know too.</p>
<p>yrod- that’s great and all but not what this thread is about.
wasn’t really relevant to what i want to know</p>
<p>waves go out every friday i think</p>
