Hello everyone! This is my first discussion on College Confidential yippee! I hope I’m doing this right!
I was wondering if any of you had heard back regarding acceptance into the Belmont University Honors Program. If not, I hope this discussion thread will be a place where people can update their status in the coming weeks!
Apparently we are supposed to hear back by mid-January, has this been confirmed? Top scholarship recipients/interviewees are additionally supposed to be notified by mid-January.
@JerseyParents I didn’t realize it was being restructured (thanks for the provided links)! It will be interesting to see how these changes will impact the Honors experience over the coming years. The loss of priority registration definitely is a bummer. Hopefully we’ll both be hearing back soon; I have been waiting since October as well.
Just emailed my admissions counselor: “It is my understanding that Honors decisions have not yet gone out. It is our hope that Honors decisions will be in the mail by the end of this month. All those that applied will receive an admissions decision.”
We did not hear today on the Belmont honors college. Not sure if letters are sent either way. Maybe we will hear something tomorrow as my counselor said all letters would be sent this week. Congrats to those accepted!
@Oreo30 hopefully you’ll be hearing from them soon! my counselor emailed me and said that you should receive a decision in the mail even if you were rejected
@Locomadre nothing from me! I did email my admissions rep who said that Presidential interviewees had been called already and that the rest of the top awards notifications had been sent via mail so we should hear more soon
If the’ye sending out the named scholarship letters, then they also know who isn’t getting them. Makes it about time then send out the complete award offers to everyone. Rolling admissions is nice but when you’re accepted in October its an eternity until March. Especially when other EA schools send out their complete offers.
Belmont’s my son’s #1 He’d like to go down there in April to Be Belmont Day. I’m not making reservations until I see a competitive offer.
We got the letter in the mail yesterday, and my daughter did not get the $15k. She is devastated! This class must be very competitive, as her friend is a freshman this year and received the $15k with stats that didn’t compare to my daughter’s. I’m beginning to wonder how much need plays a role in their merit scholarship offerings. (“Demonstrated financial need may be considered.”) @JerseyParents We may see you in April, depending on what her other offers look like!
