Is it possible they will release more decisions later today?

I only know of one person who got off so far. Someone said they’ll release admissions later in the afternoon so I hope so.

My son received a “congratulations” email from admissions on his acceptance! Hasn’t checked his portal yet.

Congrats!! Was hit portal updated?

Btw guys, if you don’t have Lehigh followed on Instagram, they did a q&a today. Someone happened to ask “when will waitlisted students find out about their decisions?”

Lehigh responded: “We hope to admit students on a rolling basis over the next few weeks! as we hear from students on wether or not they accept their spot in the class, we will have a better sense of when we can admit students off the waitlist. While ideally we would finish our waitlist priority before May 1, it is possible that some students will be admitted after May 1st.”

Hello,
We did the same, sent the letter and updated the resume, and did tour…still waiting…ugh…
Good luck to all of us!

Question. Whoever are WL, are you considering and accepting other colleges you applied and got admitted? Would you change your mind, and be willing to forfeit the deposit? Does the financial package play an important role in your decision?

My son is committed elsewhere, we will lose our deposit but in the big picture we want him to be where he feels most comfortable. Im not sure about the financial aid question…

Same here - still waiting as well. My son is regretting not doing ED… we just weren’t ready to make the commitment. Hoping that others hear news soon - would love to hear it this week, either way.

Thank you for your reply, kells16…We got a great finaid and scholarship somewhere else, but LU is our first choice University…will still hope though))))

Thank you, collgio for your reply. Will you be accepting other colleges? Yes, we had the same thoughts too. Besides, we applied to other colleges as well, but LU was on our top list. Good luck to your son!

LU was his top too. He got off the waitlist a week ago so we flew over to visit LU this past weekend and one other college. I thought once he got on the LU campus he would be 100% in but after seeing both colleges again he’s so confused. They’re both VERY different schools. The other school had great weather when we visited. They also have huge team spirit and a popular football team. He knows LU is a better school but it was sprinkling and cold when we were there. We’re from the west coast and the weather may be a bit rough in PA. I’m going crazy waiting for him to decide!

Wow! Thank you for your reply. Congratulations! We are local, live 15-20 minutes away from LU (we do workouts and run at their stadium every summer) (I start thinking that’s one of the reason we are still on WL–they want more out of state students?) If you don’t mind, what other school you visited? In PA as well?
We got accepted to another great college within 20-25 min with a Presidential and Honor’s scholarship, but I am just like you…going crazy waiting for his decision))))

Clemson. Two very different schools. We’re hoping he decides today. I think I’m more stressed about it than he is. He got into some other great ones but these are the final two he’s deciding on unless he changes his mind again. LOL
