Hey everyone! I wanted to start a new discussion about Grinnell RD! So I guess does anyone else know when we hear back?
No, I’m guessing late March, but occasionally they let a select few know in February. Has anyone received their application portal login information yet?
I have. I got it fairly quickly after submitting my app.
@isabelmk6 I applied before the December merit deadline and still haven’t received my portal login information
@scrunchiee me too! I don’t know if I should email admissions or just wait
My daughter filled out the preliminary application back in September and received her portal login shortly after that. She applied RD before the Dec 1 deadline. Check you spam folder in your email.
@pcmom1 thank you, I had also filled the preliminary application out in September, but I did not check that far back in my email for it. I found it, thanks again!
i have a portal and received it after i applied
My daughter is also a candidate for RD.
What do you guys like about Grinnell??
Hi guys! I’m an international student that applied RD to Grinnell.
I’m also wondering when the exact notification date is. This “late March” business is frustrating. Also, it says “decisions mailed” on their website. Do they email or USPS decisions? I really hope they email them.
According to the results thread from last year, they heard back on the 17th (if that helps), and they’ll send you an email to check your portal for an admissions decision.
What are your guys’ gpas?
I applied Regular Decision before the December 1 Merit Scholarship deadline and received my admission decision today. Accepted as a Dean’s Scholar with a merit scholarship of $25k/yr! The acceptance letter says that my admission decision was released early intentionally. Anyone else receive their notification today?
My D has a status update but I can’t check it by agreement. It just popped up now! Will circle back and post what’s in it.

My daughter just texted me that she got an email saying her status was updated. Then her computer died, so now we have to wait until she gets home. UGH!!
I feel your pain!! My D and I share a laptop so I can see the e-mail but I have promised not to check the portal if something is posted.
My daughter (also an RD applicant) also got a notification this afternoon that she has been accepted as a Dean’s Scholar with a merit scholarship of $25k/yr! Super exciting. Thank you Grinnell!
I also received an email with an update showing my acceptance with a Dean’s Scholarship as well as an invitation for a campus weekend visit. Pretty surprised that decisions came out this early. This is a nice relief.
