Howard University Class of 2020!

@Khizzywhiz My stats:

31 ACT
3.79 UW GPA
Lots of EC’s and minor volunteer hours

@Chopinspiano but it says on their website for international admission:

Admission essay. Please submit a 500-word essay on a topic of your choice or "How can I contribute to the Legacy of Howard University?”

ok about FA.

@Hopeful42020 Again I would email them. Their website hasnt been updated in years.

ok @Chopinspiano

Guys I got a $4000 scholarship from Camden- good or bad?

okay since the christmas season have sorta died out now, when should the rest of the early action applicants supposed to hear of their admissions decision. has anyone heard of a date or by a specific date?

@anmargen I just know sometime in January. Their office opens back up on Monday. The people who have been accepted so far haven’t gotten any officials letters yet so it could be a while but who knows? They’re inconsistent.

Any internationals receive their admission decision yet?

Nth here at the moment. Have sent them a mail though. Anyone else on the same boat? If they take this long to notify us of our admission decision, how long will it take for them to mail us our scholarship information?

It is 1/5/16 and we still have not heard.

My daughter applied by 11/1 and she has not heard a thing. Very concerned that the school said that early action decisions would be mailed out before Christmas.

Hello! I am an international student…Is WES evaluation required if your academic transcript is in english language?

Guys! According to tweets on Twitter some rejection letters went out yesterday. There was no mistake with the rejections.

@Chopinspiano what tweets?

@lasyat check the #HU20 tag.

thanks! Still nothing for me though :confused: @Chopinspiano

Getting pretty frustrated with how unorganized Howard is. They said decisions would come out on December 18th, then it was December 20th, then it was January 4th… and I still haven’t gotten anything. I really don’t understand the inconsistencies in providing admission decisions. Honestly, it’s making me like the school less and less the longer I wait.

@simplejoy I never heard of the January 4th announcement only that they would start back in January. I will say though that most HBCU’s have a bad administration. Howard has definitely one of the worst but I hear that the faculty is amazing. All I can say it be patient. You have no other choice with how unorganized they have been for years.

If you follow social media you would get a little frustrated because people are saying so many different things. I had always heard that acceptances would begin before Christmas for EA applicants. But I never thought everyone would hear by then because I assumed they had a lot of applicants. Some EA applicants last year got their acceptances mid -January. That being said it seems there are a round of acceptances coming out now.

I knew something was wrong when they said December 18th, I really did not think they would send out decisions on a Sunday
