So looking again, the money my son got was a loan and not a merit scholarship, so even less appealing.

Fwiw - he has a 1540 SAT, 35 ACT, 4.0 unweighted with 9APs, Eagle Scout, captain of his crew team. Had been in serious talks with the crew coach who expressed a lot of interest (the women are D1, the men are club but have nicer amenities than most clubs).

He got in to the engineering school but with no merit aid this just can’t compare to what other programs have offered.

My daughter is waitlisted. She is a little bummed since Lehigh was her first choice (to be fair, her first choice fluctuated between Lehigh and Syracuse). But she got into all the other four schools she applied to and they are all good schools (and with scholarships and aid at all of them to boot), so she will be fine. She accepted the waitlist, but I don’t have high hopes for being able to afford Lehigh even if she’s accepted. My guess is waitlisted kids don’t get scholarships and she needs them for me to afford the school.

Thank you

Pretty disappointed that my son just received his acceptance and Lehigh Fest for the College of Arts and Sciences is full so we can’t attend. Way to try to entice him to choose the school. He was really excited about the acceptance and attending Lehigh Fest and now this has put a damper on things. We have already attended an admitted students’ day at another school and it was so great to get all the info and ask questions and visit campus again. We were really looking forward to doing the same at Lehigh.

Same here, although I wonder if there is a technical glitch since the other 3 schools all still have space? Will try contacting them on Monday.

My son sent them an email but I assume they will just tell us to attend one of the Monday or Friday afternoon sessions in April. But, it’s not really the same thing and you miss out on the big event. The college of arts and sciences makes up 35% of their students so they either need to add another session or add more slots. Not very welcoming on their part to say sorry it’s full!

Do y’all know what the AR is this year

Accepted
33 ACT
3.97 UW
7 APs and 4 Dual enrollment (2 at Lehigh)

Same here but for Engineering. He sent an email to them yesterday, hopedful they get back to him tomorrow.
