Hello! I thought I’d start a thread for Hofstra Applicants for Early Action 1.
I’m so glad I found this hidden gem to apply to! Hofstra has some super unique programs like the Linguistics → Forensic Linguistics dual degree program that I’m applying to.
Anyways, here are my stats:
OOS
GPA 4.2 weighted, 3.7 unweighted
ACT 28
7th in my class
From what I’ve learned in conducting searches on this site, Hofstra has provided Acceptance updates on Thursday or Friday of this week, as December 15th is a Sunday.
And coincidentally, just got an email at 3:06pm today (12/10) from Hofstra telling us to keep an eye on our mailbox starting this weekend and that we’d be getting a text on Friday.
Just got a text saying, “'Tis the season for college acceptances. Hofstra folks are busy putting the final touches on your letter. We’ll send you a text on Friday with some good news.”
“We hope you are enjoying your first days at Hofstra University! Feel free to click around your student portal account and learn more about My.Hofstra.edu.”
No actual “official” acceptance yet - from reading past threads, I think that comes later today, right? Or is there somewhere I need to click to see?
I logged into the Hofstra Portal where we’ve been checking the application status, and it says, “CONGRATULATIONS (first name of child) - YOU’RE IN!”. I don’t think my kid even knows yet. They should be sending a text some time today, I’m guessing after school. By the way, the portal’s address is https://login.hofstra.edu/cas-web/login?service=https%3A%2F%2Fmy.hofstra.edu%2Fc%2Fportal%2Flogin. Good luck to everyone!
