Congrats to everyone who has been accepted. My daughter is at the end of her sophomore year in the IDEAS program. You will be receiving all of your acceptance and financial aid info along with instructions on logging into your account to view it all.
I hope you are all as happy with your choice to attend Lehigh that my daughter is. She is loving her experience!
Got waitlisted… 5th school to waitlist me. 
Yes, I too am curious how people are learning about financial aid / scholarships at this stage.
Click on “banner” from the portal (top right) to go to LEWIS and click on financial aid then financial aid status. Amount awarded is shown when you select the year.
In LEWIS is your intended major under application summary the major you’ve been accepted into or just the one you applied for?
@axials thank you, found exactly what i was hoping for!!
@daimyo I believe it is what you applied for. I couldn’t find anything anywhere as to program accepted to either.
Accepted! does anybody know how I can find out if I was admitted into the IBE program??
Are the financial aid awards final? Can we appeal or is it very hard to do so?
@yooh12 there’s no harm in trying to talk to your counselor!

guess maybe my SAT math score wasn’t high enough, guess I will never know why. This was my first waitlist or rejection. Was accepted to Northeastern and Virginia tech engineering…surprised by this decision…oh well…guess it wasn’t meant to be.
Does anyone not have the decision notice on their portal? I don’t see any decision anywhere. Where is everyone clicking to see their decision? Maybe it’s because I just made my portal account today…
top right corner has a box titled Admission Decision…its in that box
Do you mean next to where it says banner or under that? Right now something says “You will be receiving an Applicant Checklist channel within 24 hours.” Maybe because I just created my account.
How do you know which program you’ve been accepted into? It’s says engineering but I applied to the honors program. Where would it state that?
that could be…I think that is why they sent out a reminder email the other day to set up your account so you would be able to see the decision today. The Deans Message is on the left box and the Admission is on the right above the checklist box. You might have to wait to get decision.
you wont find out about the IBE or IDEAS programs until you get the letter (sorry i know i keep posting but I was this confused in november and wished someone had explained it to me) When i got the letter It says I got into the program in the first paragraph BEST OF LUCK!
do you guys have a LIN/PIN? Or do they come with your packet later on?
