jakeybake, has your son received an official letter or email yet? My D is waiting for an official letter other than the change of status on the UNH web portal. We are in Texas so I suppose snail mail will take a few days.
Hey there. No official letter yet. I saw it on the portal today. I check each school portal every day! He has no idea he’s been accepted and I won’t say a word until he gets the packet in the mail. Hopefully soon!!!
Monday night I saw on the portal that my son was accepted. He received his letter in the mail yesterday (Thursday). We are in Massachusetts. I too didn’t tell him, it was killing me! UNH is one of his top choices.
Ugh! My D does not want to look at the portal and prefers to wait for the mail acceptance. We are in Hawaii, so it might be a while. For those who received it, did the mailed acceptance include any merit scholarships?
palm715 There was no scholarship information in my D’s letter. Her snail mail letter arrived on Saturday. Just a 1 page letter and a fold out pamphlet.
FYI- Regarding timing of things: Last year my daughter applied EA and her acceptance was on the portal for 2 weeks before she got the letter, but we are in CA. Her acceptance letter came 11-24-15. Her merit scholarship letter came
2-13-15. Financial aid letter came 3-8-15. Hope that helps.
The portal had my son as accepted on Thursday and we got the letter in the mail today. Worked out great because it was tough for me to keep quiet about it!
Thanks dmarie109 & tolstoy2, good to know! We had assumed she didn’t get any merit scholarships since there wasn’t anything in with her acceptance letter. We won’t give up hope then
schoolboy12, contact your admisions officer & they can email you your ID number to access the portal. You should have received that via snail mail not too long after your application was submitted. My D didn’t receive hers so she emailed & got it that way.
Cbonanno2016, my D applied mid Oct so that may be why she has heard back so early. EA decisions can come out anytime up until I think Jan 15. Your application may just be in the pile that hasn’t been reviewed as yet. Hopefully you don’t have to wait too much longer!
My son was accepted a couple of weeks ago and got some scholarship info today so I would plan on at least 2-3 weeks for that to show up after the letter.
My son’s portal changed to Admit Early Action today! So excited!! He had applied on Nov 5th for Chemical Engineering. No letter yet. We are OOS (in MA) so hoping for some scholarship offer to make this affordable. Good luck to all!!
