For those admitted: what was the acceptance rate? (I believe on the letter it notes how many students applied this year and how many were accepted!)
Congratulations!
It doesnât say how many accepted. 26,650 applications, 1,600 spots. Thatâs 6% but doesnât account for yield, so must be more acceptances than that.
D22 Accepted School of Foreign Service. 4.0 UW, not sure W. 35ACT
Anyone have a schedule for the open house thatâs on April 8th & 9th? We canât seem to access the portal (just says âdeniedâ) and have difficult/challenging flight arrangements weâd need to book now to get there. Would really like to know schedule on the 8th.
Thank you!
last year the acceptance rate was 11.7% - lowest ever - they had 27,650 apps last year
this year they have 26,750 - last year they accepted 3226 to yield 1600
so that puts this yearâs acceptance rate at 12%
35 ACT, 3.89 UW (4.0 scale), applied to college for Political Economy with HEAVY political extra-curriculars and got rejected. Should I be suprised?
Daughter Accepted!

Same stats also accepted to SFS. Congrats to those accepted!
D waitlisted. 4.0, very strong ECs, applied Government major. Sheâs had 5 waitlists, 6 acceptances and 1 more decision to go. Unsure if she will accept a spot here or not.
Similar, son was also waitlisted with 34/1500 and a 3.8 at a very competitive HS. Accepted at 7, but only one that heâs excited about (Michigan). On 8 other waitlists already! Feels like the waitlist is the theme of this year.
Agree about waitlists. Canât imagine the chain reaction after May 1! Luckily my daughter is very excited about several of her schools â but still a very uncertain year.
My son was accepted and also canât access the portal. Hopefully that is fixed soon so we can make plans to visit on one of the accept students days.

Any idea whatsoever when financial aid will be released? It only said âin the coming days.â As exciting as this is it wonât be a reality if itâs not affordable.
Daughter accepted to SFS!! Very very surprised and happy.
Congratulations to all accepted.
