If you can access Oscar, does that mean you are in?

<p>Hey,</p>

<p>I can access Oscar and get to the page where you pay your enrollment deposit for Fall 2006, but I haven't gotten my official letter in the mail. Am I accepted, or can all prospective students access Oscar?</p>

<p>Thanks,
Extraordinarily hopeful!</p>

<p>go to gatech.edu > prospective students > freshman..</p>

<p>Create a username for yourself.. and then login. If you see a message from the director congratulating you, you are in</p>

<p>I'm pretty sure GA Tech doesn't post decisions online. You must wait for the acceptance letter.</p>

<p>they don't officially.. but u can find out like that</p>

<p>When I log in it says:
Welcome George!
Thank you for your application for admission and interest in Georgia Tech. I encourage you to visit our campus to experience Georgia Tech's atmosphere and people and discover how you can be a part of our community.</p>

<p>Are they trying to be polite and have I really been rejected?</p>

<p>no, it means they haven't decided yet... or they haven't updated your profile online</p>

<p>do u have to make a new account??....i mean fill in the one page form n stuff??</p>

<p>No, not that...</p>

<p>Here</p>

<p>oscar.gatech.edu</p>

<p>I can login, view classes, and pay my deposit online. I made a prospective freshman acct, and I get the same thing Gdavis got.</p>

<p>I haven't been accepted yet. Is it normal that I can make a housing payment and select meal plans?</p>

<p>That was my question too...</p>

<p>I can do all that stuff, but I haven't gotten an admittance letter yet. I don't know if that means we jumped the gun and we're admitted or if this is something anyone with a valid GTiD can check.</p>

<p>Did you make any deposits? I wasn't going to send money without knowing that I did get in.</p>

<p>I can also log into Buzzport.</p>

<p>No, I didn't make any deposits (yet! hopefully)</p>

<p>What's your original BuzzPort password supposed to be?</p>

<p>Your birthday mmddyr (6 digits). GT Admissions told me that you can not make deposits if your not accepted. They would not say more.</p>

<p>That's strange...</p>

<p>I can't get into BuzzPort, but I can get into Oscar and access the credit card payment site. So I can pay my deposit, but I cannot access BuzzPort with mmddy.</p>

<p>EDIT: Whoops, never mind! I can get into BuzzPort, E-mail, and Oscar!</p>

<p>So we can do all these things but does it have any indication if we were accepted or not? </p>

<p>I can make a housing payment but I can not fill out the housing form at <a href="http://www.housing.gatech.edu%5B/url%5D"&gt;www.housing.gatech.edu&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p>

<p>Can you pull up my housing. It doesn;t let m log in.</p>

<p>I can't even open the page for some reason....</p>

<p>just that page though. BuzzPort, Oscar, everything else works. BuzzPort is only for current students (gt.edu says this) so I'm assuming we're in.</p>

<p>Unless you see a message from the director saying congratulations after creating an account as I said, your decision hasn't been posted online at least..</p>

<p>Then I guess we just wait and hope for an acceptance letter or a message from the director saying congratulations when we login.</p>

<p>Hmm...I think I got rejected!</p>

<p>Yesterday when I logged in, it said
Thank you for your application for admission and interest in Georgia Tech. I encourage you to visit our campus to experience Georgia Tech's atmosphere and people and discover how you can be a part of our community.</p>

<p>But now it changed back to
Thank you for considering Georgia Tech for your college experience. I encourage you to explore these Web pages to discover all of the exciting opportunities that await you.</p>

<p>And there's a link on the right that says 'for admitted students'. </p>

<p>I called them up and they said anyone can access OSCAR, though some guy named David Bumburoski on the message post said that only accepted students can get to the housing pages.</p>

<p>I'm so confused...</p>

<p>They told you that anyone can get into Buzzport. That seems a bit crazy. Why would they allow and create accounts for people that will not be attending the school? I guess it doesn't have to make sense, they are in charge.</p>
