Howard University *CLASS OF 2018*

<p>I love everything about Howard.
The people
The Area
Homecoming & all.</p>

<p>I made this because i saw this class had no thread.
just get to know each other i guess
& always love Howard!</p>

<p>Are you applying EA or regular??</p>

<p>Regular. What program do you want to study?</p>

<p>Has anyone received notice of scholarship to Howard?</p>

<p>I applied EA, does anyone know when I could expect a decision?</p>

<p>I applied EA and we should hear around the 15th of December. I think they send scholarship info with the decision.</p>

<p>You qualify for any? I’m 30 off from the Legacy but just took it again on the 2nd and will again on December 7. Hopefully the funds aren’t exhausted by then.</p>

<p>You will hear decision before Dec 23rd. You may hear earlier. I was admitted on Oct 4th, got my fedex package on the 7th. Spoke to Precious Smith of scholarship office and was told that scholarship notices will be sent out within next two weeks for those already admitted. Did you get an admissions officer? If you did, you can call him/her. My admission’s officer is Rohan Parchment. I spoke to him and he sent my admission letter via email the same day that I spoke to him.</p>

<p>So you already got accepted? When did you apply?</p>

<p>I only got notification that my application was received. Nothing about admissions yet though</p>

<p>I just saw someone’s acceptance letter on Twitter. Didn’t think they come this early.</p>

<p>If you are a National Achievement SemiFinalist, they will waive your application fee. If you make finalist and name Howard as first choice, you are in line for the full cost of attendance (Tuitiion, Room, Board, Fees, and book voucher!) LAUREATE Scholarship. Nice deal. FAMU and NC Central offer the same…FYI.
I applied EA and right now have the score for the CAPSTONE and hoping to get to FOUNDERS with my Dec. test. I need a full ride!</p>

<p>Question: Any truth to the rumor that Howard is struggling financially? Also, are there more laid back kind of earthy kids at Howard or is it the ‘fashion show’ it is rumored to be?
HSG</p>

<p>@ hsgrad
Will you be taking both the ACT and SAT? I’m sort of in the same boat</p>

<p>to your first question: <a href=“http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/howard-university/1529608-howard-u-danger-closing.html[/url]”>http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/howard-university/1529608-howard-u-danger-closing.html&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

<p>to your second question: I’ve heard that they take pride in how they dress, but that it’s not everything </p>

<p>and thanks for clarifying, I got kind of excited thinking they’d come early</p>

<p>Spoke to Dr. Barbara Griffin Director of Financial Aid. She says there is no truth to rumor of Howard closing. They have $500Million endowment. Says Howard has been around for 150 years and that it will be here for another 150+ years.</p>

<p>to A1Everything: I applied Sept 10th received my letter of admission on Oct 4th. Rohan my admission officer emailed me a copy of my letter and my official packet came 3 days later via Fed Ex.</p>

<p>To hsgrad: Please be aware that the HUFS are first come first served scholarships. Per Precious Smith of Financial Aid, when money is gone those who are eligible for scholarship will not receive it. So might want to call about admission status.</p>

<p>Anyone else who has been admitted to Howard? Am I the only one?</p>

<p>I haven’t yet, but I have a 3.6 GPA and scored a 27 on my ACT, so I’m pretty hopeful. Were your stats around that?</p>

<p>Same I haven’t gotten an admissions decision yet. I think I’m going to call them and ask subtly because I have a second deadline to meet for the B.S./M.D. program and I can’t do that application until I have gotten an official acceptance letter from Howard UG.</p>

<p>I have similar numbers 3.6 GPA and 33 ACT</p>

<p>to Greensage: I’m applying to bs/md program too. Application isn’t due until March 1st</p>
