Emerson College- Early Action Class of 2020

Got accepted for journalism with $21k total scholarship money!!! So excited, this was my first school I’ve heard back from!! Congrats to everyone!

I got in!!! But no money. Luckily I have some outside scholarships and savings, but I’m on the fence about attending. Accepted into the Writing, Literature, and Publishing program! :open_mouth: :-bd

I got the pinnacle scholarship for $5000, but is that all the aid I’m going to get? I did CSS, but after we do FAFSA will we get more?

i was accepted into WLP and the honors program. also half tuition scholarship (from honors) plus a 5000 annual scholarship!!

Congrats to everyone that got in!!! Apparently I won’t be hearing back today because there was technical error with my application but they assured me that I would hear back before the 23rd. A little bummed, but still very hopeful.

@artsycyborg
do you mind posting your stats? I am really hoping to get into the honors college.

@isaf33
suerscore SAT: 2150, 101.43 weighted GPA (i’m on 100 pt scale), 14 pre-AP and AP classes in hs, internship and several EC’s related to publishing/books, worked really hard on my essays (also had my english teacher give feedback on it).
best of luck on admissions!! i’m rooting for you (and everyone who applied as well) :slight_smile:

Accepted!!! Media Arts Production major within the Department of Visual and Media Arts

Accepted! Undecided major.

accepted!! Writing lit and publishing :smiley:

Accepted w/ 10k aid to WL&P. Don’t know if it’s where I’ll end up but I’m very excited. I have a lot of friends there, and it’s like a cult - they all LOVE it and try to convince people to go there.

Congrats everyone! My twin sister just got accepted and was wondering when ya’ll will find out about Honors Program–she got a scholarship but is dying to know about the honors!

Accepted! :slight_smile: Media Arts Production major within the Department of Visual and Media Arts
does anyone know when we hear about honors?

I’m from Hong Kong!

Apparently decisions for the honors program should be posted to the portal by April 1st.

They’re having issues with my application, for some crazy reason. I had to wake up to this news. On the phone with them now.

According to the lady I just spoke with on the phone, I won’t hear a decision until later this week! This makes me so anxious.

Just spoke to admissions as well - I won’t be hearing back until later this week (I applied for spring 2016, not fall 2016). Best of luck to everyone who hasn’t heard back yet!

Best of luck to everyone, though! I hope to see all of you guys in Boston!

Yeah, I got this strange email that my credentials were not all in - even though they are, according to my portal - and called admissions in a panic (at 5:45AM, mind you) and was told that it was all on their end and that there were some things to straighten out in the Performing Arts Department. Not a good way to start my day!

@leerahandstitch
I am going through the same exact thing, they just sent an email saying all my stuff wasn’t in, but it was in the whole time. I just replied stating this hopeful everything will turn out okay.
