From other discussions, it sounds like the majority are in for a long wait for admissions. We are OOS. My daughter applied Oct 30, 2019 for Priority Deadline and has received a log-in to the portal. The portal doesn’t provide any status information. It only displays three (3) green checks that they have received the documents. Does anyone have an insight to LSU’s admissions process?
I think you should hear something soon. We are also OOS. My daughter applied on October 31st for priority deadline and received her acceptance to LSU and the Ogden Honors College this afternoon (11/14/19). Her portal looked the same as your daughters until today when we received an email that her portal had been updated with an admissions decision.
Thank you so much!
Hoping you will get good news soon! Our daughter (out of state) applied on November 1 and was accepted about a week later.
My son applied the first week of October and was accepted a week later. Very easily since there wasn’t an essay required. Today we logged onto the portal to look up merit scholarships and saw he was admitted to the Honors College. He’s a 34 ACT, OOS, 4.6 gpa and 10 APs. Top of his class. Waiting to see what merit aid he will receive as he’s a GA Zell Miller candidate which means we have 100% tuition covered if he stays in state.
OOS and daughter had all items received per portal on 10/7. Acceptance letter in portal 11/13. You should hear something soon. Best wishes.
Did everyone who already received an acceptance have a 23 or higher on ACT ?
My daughter applied on Oct 21 and was accepted on Oct 24. We are OOS. She was accepted to Ogden Honors. On the portal it still tells us to complete the FAFSA. I know she will only get merit money and nothing based on need. We did complete FAFSA regardless. Does everyone else’s portal still show this? Thanks.
Our portal still shows that we need to complete the FAFSA. I don’t think we will qualify for needs-based aid either, but we did complete it weeks ago. I’m curious why it isn’t showing up as completed.
Thanks @SavMom9801 Hoping that gets fixed or it isn’t needed for merit $$.
So I checked the admissions portal today and it no longer says to complete FAFSA. Hoping they pulled them finally.
D is OOS. Completed application and all requirements as of 12/2. FAFSA is done.
Do you know how soon she would hear?
I’m not sure how soon. My D20 is OOS and she completed the requirements at the end of October and she’s still waiting. It’s driving me nuts! LOL
VALegacy we’re feeling the same way. Anxiously hoping for an acceptance!
Someone got a big purple envelope in the mail today!!! Tried to get out of opening the mail, then he saw the letters…LSU and made the time with a BIG smile. In state- we have SO many kids in-state this year wanting to go to LSU! No word on honor’s college or scholarships/financial aid yet. Geaux Tigers!!!
That’s awesome, congrats!!! Did it show up on the portal before the envelope?
My daughter just got accepted on the Portal. She received an email at 6:54 EST. GEAUX TIGERS!!!
It did show up on the portal several weeks ago. A top kid at our school applied earlier this week and got right in to the Honor’s College too.?♀️ I have no idea why so much waiting.
I applied around Halloween and I still haven’t heard back. Does anyone know why? I called the office today and all they told me was that I turned everything in they just haven’t reviewed my application.
My daughter applied around Halloween as well. She just got notified Thursday night. So hopefully you’ll hear soon!
