Diversity Achievers Program 2014

<p>Update: Hey guys. So the deadline to apply is today, September 18th. I heard that some people were notified of acceptance…? Did anyone get notification of anything? </p>

<p>Good luck to all that applied. Although I love Lehigh I didn’t apply (bc my retreat is that week)</p>

<p>GOOD LUCK GOOD LUCK GOOD LUCK :D</p>

<p>Thanks Jay2631! Have fun at your retreat. Hope your able to apply and get accepted to Lehigh admission then. Good luck with everyone else applying to the program!!!</p>

<p>The decisions are supposed to come out in 2 weeks, I’m not sure if you would have already received a decision if you applied really early since I applied close to the deadline (as in a few hours before).</p>

<p>So i applied to DAP right when they opened it for application, and i still hasn’t heard anything from Lehigh about it. So does it mean that i didn’t get in?</p>

<p>I applied three days after the application opened. From the website they said they will release the accepted notification applications 2 weeks from the sep 18 deadline. That’s the bad thing applying early :frowning: Everyone, keep your hopes up, don’t doubt. Try not to at least. Register for the senior open house just in case.</p>

<p>Hopefully, applying a few hours before the deadline wouldn’t have too much of an adverse effect on my app :frowning: already registered for Open House just in case.</p>

<p>Amylase0, I hope your app. made it. I am hoping to register for open house, but my more said I visited Lehigh so many times already… Haha. I’ll most likely register. I just want them to send email acceptances already, 1 more week!</p>

<p>same, @LesGarc, how many times have you visited already? I’ve only visited once because we live too far away.</p>

<p>I visited for view program, open house, multicultural leadership conference. I think I’m forgetting another. I dont think its a lot. I live 20 minutes away so… I want to visit somehow one more time to make sure 100% that I love Lehigh. <3 </p>

<p>Yes, right now I’m not sure if I should apply and so either attending the Open House or the DAP will give me a better idea of what the school is like. Hopefully we both get accepted!</p>

<p>Dito! Thanks for putting your input into this thread. Other people too if they are reading! :3 I hope all that helped in this discussion get in!!! Please keep commenting anytime. Its boosts people’s confidence a lot. Hope we get in too.</p>

<p>I’m really nervous but excited to hear the acceptance decisions #:-S hoping for the best! Good luck to you all.
I’ve visited two times. Hopefully they will notice my demonstrated interest. </p>

<p>Hey guys! I applied for the program as well. Has anyone recieved an acceptance email yet? And if we weren’t accepted do we still get an email?</p>

<p>I haven’t gotten anything yet. I think it comes out this week / after today. The wait is agonizing. </p>

<p>Oh thank God! You have no idea how scared I’ve been lol</p>

<p>I think they send an email accepted or not. Which hopefully it’s for accepted. </p>

<p>How much time did you guys spend on your essays? I only spent around an hour or so because I was rushed for time (procrastination…and I have been super busy since school started <em>why did I think it was a good idea to take 5 ap’s senior year</em>) so now that I look back on it it looks like I wrote it in 15 minutes :frowning: :’(</p>

<p>Dont doubt yourself. It took me a day to do my application and maybe 2 hours on my essay. I wish I spent more time on it because I feel I just stated the obvious, to make sure Lehigh is still my first choice and why it was my first choice anyways. I wish I made it more special…</p>

<p>yeah I didn’t mention anything about lehigh being my first choice…(whoops) I just stated why and how a diversity-based program would help me learn more about the school (just answered the question).</p>
