Greetings Geneseo applicants. I believe RD decisions won’t be out until end of Feb/early March, but has anyone received an email from the college confirming that they have received the application and are reviewing? My daughter got a confirmation from the common app, but nothing from Geneseo. Other schools had her register for their portal.
my son applied as well and has not received anything other than the common app confirmation. We did however receive a letter in the regular mail from the school addressed to us parents. It was asking us to fill out the optional parent statement…so this makes me think they did receive his application
Thanks for the info, mombird! Now that you mention it, we did get the letter from the college and sent in a statement. Looking forward to hearing in about a month.
Same here, waiting for information since submitting parent statement what feels like ages ago. GL to all!
My son applied in late October. Aside from the parent statement hasn’t heard a peep. He’s gotten a lot of action with his other applications, such that it seems that he has almost already made up his mind. I am not sure he even remembers that he applied to Geneseo. I wonder how Geneseo competes for top applicants this way?
If Geneseo is on top of your list, I recommend your son/daughter email or call to confirm receipt of application. It shows demonstrated interest which is a big deal at Geneseo. It could give your child that extra edge.
Regarding the comment about competing for top applicants, most top schools don’t release regular decisions until March/April so Geneseo is right on par with the rest. My son has only heard back from a couple of schools so far, one being ED.
I thought it was kind of strange that they sent out an invitation to apply for Edgar scholars program prior to sending out a general acceptance. Did we miss something?
Just got accepted today over email which said that Geneseo is trying out sending acceptances early electronically
My dd got the email acceptance to Geneseo today, too! Congrats sslluvs2read!
My daughter received her acceptance today via email. It was a long wait since she applied way back in October. Congrats to all.
My daughter received an acceptance packet in the mail today, here in NYC. She has not visited the school so we may go to one of the accepted students events in April.
Congrats to everyone!

@Student510 any mention of merit scholarship?
Hi… did anyone’s email mention Edgar Fellows invitation? My son’s did not. Nor did it mention any merit aid. I assume this information - if coming - would be in the post mail?
@midmichparentt I got accepted last Friday and even before that was sent an email being invited to apply for the Edgar Fellows. I also this week got a letter in the mail formally inviting me.
Got invited to apply for Edgar Fellows, which comes with merit. @redwood79

@Student510 Ah, okay. Is Edgars the only source for merit atm? I recall reading that there are also rewards Scholar-In-Residence and Regal Merit Scholarships, do they still exist?
Don’t know @redwood79
did anyone get finaid in the mail yet?
