***LMU Class of 2020 Regular Decision***

@mermaid29 Congrats!

Congrats!

Hello, how am I supposed to format the writing questions we attach common app. Did you guys put a title? How did you do it? I’m transfer student. Thank you.

@JC10202010 I looked up what my D wrote and it looks like paragraph format. She answered the one on the Pope and Climate change. Is that what you are asking? No title.

@ocmom2 yes that it exactly what I meant. Thank you for your input. I didnt think we were supposed to put a title either. I did mine times new roman, 12point font, double spaced.

has anyone heard anything lately? specifically rejections? im slowly losing my sanity

Agreed. Waiting to hear from this school is raising a whole new type of anxiety!

Admitted last Friday.

GPA: 3.35 unweighted 3.52 Weighted

Some extracurriculars and some IB courses (never tested)

I applied on the last day possible (January 18)

I got admitted about a week ago. I’m surprised I heard back so early. I submitted my app on the late day of the extended deadline (18th) and heard back 15 days later. Some people at my school applied back in October and still haven’t heard back so maybe I just got lucky

GPA: 3.65
SAT: 1950

@mntEden Congrats! LMU is the only school I’ve gotten accepted to so far and I also heard back so early considering my supplemental materials weren’t in till Jan 15th. What major are you in?

Are you planning on committing or is LMU not your first choice? I really liked campus when I visited and the overall vibe but I’m not sure if I’d ‘fit in’ so to speak.

Honestly, LMU isn’t my first choice, but it is so nice to know that someone wants me. HAHA! This whole process has been really tiring.

@mash97 I’m in the college of science and engineering as undeclared, although I think I’ll end up doing psych or poli sci.

I’m really considering LMU. It’s in my top 3 a along with Seattle U and Gonzaga, although I’m really torn between SU and LMU. I haven’t been to SU yet, but when I went to LMU I got a really good vibe. The campus is great for sure and the students are pretty friendly (the ones I met at least). What makes you think you won’t fit in?

I love the school and I agree that everyone is extremely friendly. My sister is currently a sophomore there and its the perfect school for her and she absolutely loves it. However, I feel like I’d have different interests than the majority of students.

But you’ll find your kinda people wherever you go, I guess. Idk, it’s definitely near the top of my list. @mntEden

@mash97 that’s what kind of deterring me from SU. I feel like most of the student there aren’t like me, but that’s not a fair assumption I guess. I’ve never attended the school so I wouldn’t know, but I’m sure I’d be able to find people like me anywhere like you said. PM me if you want, I don’t wanna hijack the thread or anything 8-|

Someone (a CA resident) made the comment to me today that LMU was a great “local” college. I’m not sure how to take that? We’re OOS. Thanks for feedback.

I received an email from LMU saying: “Your Loyola Marymount University MyAid account has been updated to reflect new or revised information and you are encouraged to login at your earliest convenience” I logged in and gave me information on financial aid and letting me know my FAFSA was complete. Is this a good sign??? I checked my application status and it still says under review. Someone give me some feedback if this is a good or bad sign.

@mom2one98 Many kids would love to go to LMU but its expensive. Many catholic high school grads from southern california apply to catholic colleges and some think LMU is too close - or too much like high school. I know many grads who loved the school and the proximity to other areas, the beach, the city, the mountains. I think it would be a local school only because your talking to someone who lives here. In my opinion.

@ckel8496 Mine was updated this morning as well, while my application is still under review. I’m guessing its something that everyone was updated on? I mean, we can only hope though!

Can you guys all access your “MyAid” section of your portal? I’ve been admitted but I still can’t access it.
