Ithaca College RD Decisions Class of 2020

hey guys, i saw theres no thread for regular decisions result so decided to make one. has anyone heard from them? also, do you have any idea when decisions might be coming out?

im freaking out here.

Hang in there - you should hear any day now!

I just got my decision letter today and got accepted. I’m happy but didn’t get any information about merit based scholarships, which might mean I won’t be able to attend. I would be interested to know who received merit scholarship packages and what they were looking for in order to offer them.

@hemej5 if you dont mind me asking, what are your scores like? and are you an international student?

I don’t mind at all. I’m not international and I got a 31 on my ACT. Unweighted GPA is 3.83 and weighted is 4.21.

hey i got into Ithaca with $20,000 merit; im an international. My letter did not mention anything about financial aid. does anyone know when we will hear about financial aid because the decision letter says it will be sent separately.

Congratulations! Do you mind me asking you what your scores were? I’m happy to be accepted but disappointed about no merit help…

@Braveheart53 when did you hear from them? did you apply RD or EA?

I applied RD and heard back on 22nd March via email.

@hemej5 of course. My stats were:

3.92 UW gpa
SAT- 1910
SAT2- 720 Math 1 700 Physics
TOEFL - 106
Nice ECs

I think my essays and recommendation were a major factor and that the application was well balanced.

I just got in, but I can’t find any information about scholarships on my portal, does that mean I didn’t get any? My stats are pretty good:
3.3 UW gpa, 4.2 W gpa
Full IB Diploma Student
SAT-1930
Really good essay and recommendations
Pretty good ECs, won many contests and awards.

I still haven’t heard back, should I be worried?

Do you get a confirmation email saying your application went in? I sent my stuff for every college I applied to on the same day and my GC told me my transcripts were sent on the same day. Should I be panicking yet?

i wrote to them a while ago and they told me they’ve received my application but its under review! dont worry, there reply date is anyway April 15th.

hey guys! i got in this morning with $20,000 merit scholarship, annually.

I was surprised when I received an acceptance letter from Ithaca College. They also gave me a $20,000 merit scholarship. My stats are extremely low, and I hope to see you at Ithaca College :slight_smile:

Got waitlisted. I’ll send my stuff in another day

All- my son declined spot at Ithaca College today. He is informing all of the places he will not be accepting a spot from today, in order to free up spots for those waiting. I am hoping others are doing the same to open up spots for those who’ve been placed on the waitlist. It’s better to let all the colleges you are declining know vs just letting their offer lapse on 5/2. You never know if you will want to go to grad school somewhere down the road, so it’s best to use good manners and politely decline and thank them for their kind offer. Besides it’s the right thing to do for those anxiously hoping a spot opens for them. Good luck to all!
