<p>OOS from Virginia and recieved my letter end of Novemeber. </p>
<p>Novaswim, I'm froma NOVA too :)</p>
<p>im in georgia and got my OOS waiver and acceptance letter today(12/22/08)</p>
<p>are there certain statistics necessary to get an OOS waiver, or does it just depend on the individual? i have a 30 ACT and top 15% of my class (but not top 10%)</p>
<p>I just received my acceptance today with a small scholarship, instate</p>
<p>DD just received her acceptance today. No mention of OOS waiver, but a very nice scholarship. No mention of Calhoun either (was it a different application??, I don't recall)</p>
<p>Calhoun was a different application. And what was the scholarship? Because I thought the only scholarships they gave before march was the OOS waiver. Was the scholarship worth $56,000 total?</p>
<p>Yes, it was worth $56,000 total. The letter used the word scholarship, but I realize now it makes the tuition equivalent to instate. </p>
<p>The next question then is do they release scholarship info before May 1?</p>
<p>I'm about 95% sure they release additional scholarships by May 1. If I am not mistaken the deadline to put down an enrollment deposit is May 1 so I am sure they want you to have an idea of your scholarship amount before you enroll. I think they said most decisions would come in late March.</p>
<p>DD got her acceptance letter today...with scholarship $$!!! Essentially, the OOS was waived, plus a bit more. Letter mentioned that addition $$ could come in the spring. Super exciting!! This is the last one we were waiting for and her first choice.</p>
<p>^ CONGRATS!</p>
<p>Do you mind posting her stats? OOS here and we're hoping to get the waiver next year.</p>

<p>Clemson actually does superscore SAT's, taking the best of your math and critical reading scores. A friend of mine in admissions let me know that students that hear early are usually shoo ins for scholarships, which have a minimum requirement of 31 ACT/1350 SAT, and a top 10% class ranking. hope this helps!</p>
<p>I applied in early December, is there any way I will hear back before mid-February? I'm in-state</p>
<p>Oh wait, it says apply by Dec. 15 to find out by Mid-Feb so I logged in and turns out I applied Nov. 14th, thats good news for me lol. Alot of ppl at my school, (45 minutes from Clemson), say that they usually tell you before Mid-February, anyone know when they typically tell of RD acceptances?</p>
<p>That's good news for you Josh. Where do you live? I'm in Greenville.</p>
<p>I live in Greenwood, Greenville is nice, I got into Furman but I don't think I will be going there.</p>
<p>Can I dely them reviewing my app until I get back my Jan SAT scores?</p>
<p>You could email them and ask them to but I'm not sure how that works</p>
<p>I doubt it.</p>
<p>A good amount of kids from my school want to go to Furman. I don't see what the attraction is.</p>
<p>Furman has a really nice campus and good academics but its size is a turn off for me, some ppl prefer smaller schools tho. I see myself more likely to go to USC or Clemson because they are big schools and that is the atmosphere I like most.</p>
