<p>Who applied ea to SMU?</p>
<p>when do we hear back?</p>
<p>A friend of mine has a D that applied EA. They talked to adcom and said the decisions go in the mail today, Friday, 14th. Good luck</p>
<p>Thanks for the update dsm, it would be a great early Christmas present to get a nice envelope in the next few days :)
I heard the deadline for EA was December 31, and ED December 15. Maybe they're sending the decisions for EA the same time as ED??? </p>
<p>CollegeKid, nice to hear back from a fellow SMU EA'er. Maybe we can resurrect this thread :)</p>
<p>Decisions in mail for EA would be good news. SMU websie does not show any ED option that I can find.</p>
<p>I already know that i was accepted because i e-mailed the admissions lady for my area on Tuesday and she told me that i got in!!!! She said i would be recieving a letter this weekend...which i didn't so i'm guessing we'll all be getting letters beginning of this week...</p>
<p>good luck to everyone!! i think its a good year cuz 5 kids from my school have gotten in already (they all e-mailed her)</p>
<p>alyssa what were your scores if you dont mind me asking</p>
<p>umm
SAT: CR- 720, M- 640, W- 690 (1360/2050)
i didn't take any SAT II's or the ACT
my GPA's only a 3.2 but that was cuz of health problems i had which i explained in a supplement essay</p>
<p>anything else?</p>
<p>Congrats alyssa, may I ask what you asked your AdCoun in your email? Not sure I want to bluntly ask if I got in or not XD</p>
<p>Hope to maybe meet everyone next year :)</p>
<p>haha yeah um I was just very nice about it here's my exact e-mail (i omitted my last name):</p>
<p>Hello! My name is Alyssa and I'm a senior at Berkeley Preparatory School in Tampa, Florida. I applied early action and I was just wondering if I could find out my admission status, I was told I could e-mail you to find out. Thank you so much!</p>
<p>Alyssa </p>
<p>i was pretty much just very nice and perky about it lol the lady responded very nicely</p>
<p>Thanks, I think that's a good way to put it :)
Ahhh, whatever, I'll go the traditional way and wait for the mail XD</p>
<p>If when the envelopes land. What is an acceptance envelope like - big, regular stuffed with lots of material, etc? What about a rejection letter? A deferral letter?
What are your GPA and SAT or ACT like if you don't mind sharing?
Thanks and good luck to all.</p>
<p>D. got letter today - a deferral sadly. Anyone have any idea of stats of what SMU sent out - how many acceptances, deferrals, rejections? Any idea from past of % of deferrals ultimatley accepted? Best of luck to the rest of you.</p>
<p>i got a deferral too
this is a shock, i was expecting to get in....</p>
<p>I'm yet to hear anything, but what were both your scores. I'm getting really nervous SMU was my favorite school on my list.</p>
<p>i got mine today, and it was a defferal as well.
i put in a lot of communication so i thought i was going to get in..
im just glad i didnt get rejected</p>
<p>What are your stats, guys? For my deferred D, 3.3 at an excellent privte school with a 1340 SAT.</p>
<p>i got my official acceptance packet thing today it was really cool it's this huge blue thing thats filled with like an official certificate and such </p>
<p>just thought i would throw this in: i also got rejected today from my ED school so i guess i'll (most likely) see everyone who got accepted to SMU there next year</p>
<p>Does anyone know whether scholarship information is provided with acceptance packet or does that information come later?</p>
<p>I'm in; Very excited, though I may not end up at SMU next year depending on what happens in March.</p>
<p>DONHO, my acceptance was a blue packet filled with a viewbook, a few pieces of reading material, housing selection, but nothing on scholarships (although I didn't leaf through ALL of the pages). I didn't request that I needed financial aid, so that may be why I may not have gotten anything.</p>
<p>Best wishes for everyone else still waiting, etc. Hope you all have nice mail in the coming days :)</p>
<p>Well we received two packets on separate days -- neither contained any info on scholarships. Guess we'll have to contact the Admission's office to find out.</p>
