@Cw82200 which college did you apply to within Lehigh?
College of Business/Economics as an Accounting major
@Cw82200 Maybe the competition for that specific college was higher than the past years I wouldn’t know 100% though because I got into the CAS
I’m just hoping to get in RD now, Lehigh truly is the only place I want to go.
does anyone know the acceptance rate for ED 2?
Deferred. Went in undecided. Took 1 AP because my school only offers two AP courses. 3.7 unweighted GPA, visited and interviewed. Had strong recs and essays. I got 1200 SAT score (LMAO, I know its low). I would’ve much rather been rejected then deferred because I’m gonna get killed going up against RD applicants.
so like i wanna talk to all of the people who added/I added on IG but idk how to go about that without looking weird lmao
Anyone else get bad financial aid package? I got 7k loans when the website says they cap at 5k. Also was way higher than net price calculator said and didn’t take into account my sister attending another private university.
We got same. 10k over and 7k in loans. Son is heartbroken
My offer was about 6000 more than EFC (disappointed) but mine has $5500 in loans, not 7k.
-Do you know if we call the financial aid office and explain financial circumstances there is a chance we will receive more aid?
Can you guys please post stats? Even if you didn’t get in, anything helps : )

Same here.
If we get in EDI or EDII do we have to send in 1st semester senior grades?
Did the decision come out on the expected date for ED1?
Did anyone get in with ACT below 30 ?
@youssef2000 if you look at Lehigh’s Common set data from 2017 66% had ACT numbers 30 or above. I’m sure a good percent of those below are athletes, under represented minorities, first generation college students. But also Arts & Sciences may be more represented there than Engineering which is crazy competitive at Lehigh. Business especially finance, would also follow mostly above. So it will also depend on your major. Also what else an applicant brought to the table w/ EC’s and grades/rigorous schedule etc. Good luck!! ED helps as well
@2022soon I will be majoring in engineering. Actually, I got 27 but my STEM sub score is in the 97th percentile. I think I have a decent application: the personal statement, the ECs, the RLs, and I have submitted some additional documents that show some of my engineering projects. Also, I think I have a very good supplemental essay. I think that I am the only one from the school and the country applying to Lehigh this year. I also requested an online interview and it went very well. Do u think will be any chance for me to get in? I know that there are not a lot of people who are below 30s but I am just wondering, why don’t I be one of these people?
@Youssef2000
I hope you do! Did you send in subject test scores in the areas you are strong in? Did the reading comprehension score just bring the ACT down? Any hooks at all?
