Hey guys,
Thought I’d start this thread up. Based on the ED threads from the past two years, it looks like decisions will come out around December 15!
Good luck with your application. I am applying ED to Lehigh too!
My daughter (who isn’t on CC much) applied ED to Lehigh. Can’t wait to find out! Good luck!
Counting down the days until mid december
Our daughter applied ED as well, keeping our fingers crossed!
I’m applying ED as well, excited but nervous!!! Only 10 days left, good luck to everyone!
Because so many schools are announcing decision dates, I called the admissions office to see if there was an specified date beyond “mid December” and was told “your daughter should receive an update in her portal in the next few weeks” – so no clarity. I hope it isn’t a few more weeks! anyone hear anything different?
I predict the Committee will take all of next week to finalize their decisions so will probably release them late on Friday …to avoid the calls from disappointed applicants. Last year was a VERY tough year because of the number of highly qualified applicants and this year was expected to be the same. INTEREST in Lehigh is what separates those who get accepted from those who don’t.
question - DS did not apply EA, but we have visited campus twice, interviewed, participated in a view day, etc. However, we never get any emails from Lehigh. Is this common? Other schools seem to pelt us with emails almost daily, but with Leigh it’s crickets.
I applied ED to Lehigh for the class of 2021 and the only emails I received are in regards to ED applicants (like deadlines and stuff). I also got a list of scholarships in an email, but I assume you will get a similar email when the RD deadline approaches! My sister is a sophomore right now at Lehigh and she said during the admissions process that not too many emails are sent out because they are focused on the ED applications
Applying ED and a soon to be Legacy! Admissions loves it…just don’t expect any sibling discount outside of a 10 payment plan!
I’m applying ED too, to the IBE program. Excited to hear results
I am so pumped for my rejection letter
can anyone guess what day decisions will come out?
Someone told me they called and the office said there is no set date and it will be mid-December but not too close to to Christmas. I’d bet it will not be before Friday the 16th and could even be up to Wed the 21, when break begins. Historically they have used Twitter to say they are “working on it” a few days prior and then to notify that they are posting online. No news is…no news. Gotta hang in there a bit longer!
I have a feeling it will be the 15th or the 16th like previous years. If you read the ED thread from last year, admissions tweeted decisions were going out later in the week when they actually came out that day. Staying hopeful while slowing dying @-)
Yeah I feel like it will be at the end of next week
Just called admissions and they said it should be sometime next week!! Their exact words were, “We can’t give a definitive date, but it will hopefully be sometime next week.”
Thanks!!! @waltz25
By this time next Friday everyone should know their fate. Some will be overjoyed and others deeply disappointed. If you don’t receive a pure acceptance notification (i.e. deferred) don’t waste any more of your energy and move on…life will go on elsewhere. Lehigh takes hardly anyone from their “deferred” list and basically no students off their wait list.
