Lehigh RD Release

Waitlisted… What would my chances be from the waitlist

I am really freaking out… @NewEnglandBound how should I proceed please?

@NewEnglandBound you’re not alone, I was waitlisted as well. I think the odds are pretty low but they are odds nonetheless.

I think only accepted and waitlisted students got notified… an inference that I am rejected… not so shoking though.

@DrDingle23 could u answer me on their behalves?

@imenkh check under the welcome tab

@imenkh ALL applicant received a decision through the portal. It is under the “Welcome!” tab

@DrDingle23 where can I found the LIN xd?

I’m happy being on the waitlist, I expected a rejected to be honest. @DrDingle23 i’ll make a Lehigh Waitlist 2020 discussion page later

Rejected…

waitlisted. lol go leopards

when is accepted students day?

Well my son’s Welcome tab does not have a decision noted (I am checking for him since he is out of the country on a school trip for spring break).

Just so you all know. Financial aid packages are in the portal. You need to read all the way to the bottom of the acceptance notes and follow the instructions. Then you will need to go to the Banner Self Service Section of the new portal they are granting you access too.

Waitlisted people, does your letter say

“Over 13,400 students submitted applications for the Class of 2020 and each of those students, yourself included, brought a unique blend of academic accomplishment, community involvement, and personal characteristics that could benefit and add to the Lehigh community. While I am unable to extend an offer of admission to you at this moment, the Committee found your application very compelling and would like to offer you a place on our waiting list. We believe that the strengths and passion that you demonstrated in your application warrants further consideration.”

Wondering if they are personalized.

@NewEnglandBound I got the same exact thing. According to college board, last year Lehigh offered 4,232 a spot on the waitlist, 1,847 accepted that offer, and 0 were actually accepted. What is the point of waitlisting so many if you’re not going to give even ONE of them a spot?

@DrDingle23 actually apparently 2 people got in from the waitlist according to college data :stuck_out_tongue:

Add D to the “waitlisted” group. Sounds like an awfully large number of them this year. Based on the ridiculously tiny percentage who actually make it off the waitlist, they should probably have just outright rejected most of us- tends to get hopes up that are going to be ultimately let down.

Daughter did set up the new pin/password to be able to see the FA info. Is this “just” need based as it mentions the staford loan, but nothing else. Has anyone else been able to determine merit money?

Accepted!!!
