LSU Application Portal

@Fracken My daughter too received email acceptance mid October. The big 'pop-up" packet included a copy of the acceptance letter. The scholarship information was sent in a seperate envelope.

@alipel Thank you! It makes me feel a little better to know they were mailed separately. Hopefully we get something this week!

@Fracken If you were admitted into Ogden, I’m sure you will get some type of scholarship. I’m surprised my daughter hasn’t heard from Ogden. She meets the requirements…I have come to the conclusion that there is no “textbook timeline”…!!!

I was accepted today. Now onto honors, Georgetown, and Michigan!

Will honors and scholarship information be later?

DS portal was also updated tonight to accepted!

Still nothing for my DS. This is the last one he is waiting on. He got merit scholarship and Honors College at Texas State, admission to Baylor, Tech, and UH. He visited LSU 3 times and even went to the alumni interview early December. Starting to wonder if something was wrong with his application. He is really hoping for LSU and some sort of scholarship to offset OOS, but I’m starting to worry.
Congrats @NAL112576 and @lsufan4301!

Thank you! I honestly wouldn’t worry… LSU for some reason just kinda seems slow haha. Maybe if you hear nothing call on Monday? I called last week.

@laxmom2000 . My DS applied 11/30 was accepted today 12/12 and along with Ogden Honors. I would check at make sure everything has been submitted for your sons application.

Wait you got Ogden as well? I was accepted but it said Ogden I’d hear by March. And I know I have the stats for it.

@lsufan4301 - Yes it says this in the letter online " ​Congratulations on your admission to Louisiana State University and to the Ogden Honors College! Welcome to the Class of 2023.​"

what are your stats?

1520 SAT, 34 ACT, top 8%, IB Diploma, 3.9 UW 4.22 W GPA.

@lsufan4301 - Ok doesn’t make sense My son has a 34 ACT, 4.19 GPA , 5 AP’s with a 5 on each and 6 more AP’s this year. Which I think would be about the same as an IB Diploma… Maybe it’s the major? He is going into engineering.

I have two D19’s that applied. One heard in mid October, the other was accepted last night. The one that heard in mid Oct rec’d a letter yesterday with scholarship offer but no mention of Ogden. 34 ACT, Similar GPA.

Yea I’m not really sure. LSU seems kinda chaotic with how they handle these things.

I’m actually feeling better after reading these stats, which are all higher scores than DS. Maybe they are accepting the highly qualified and it’s taking them longer to pore over the others. My son is in top quarter rank with 4.548 GPA but test scores were low. He will have updated scores tomorrow so I’m praying those will be a better reflection of his abilities. Based on last year’s published auto admit numbers he would have been fine, but with the new holistic review, I really have no idea.

For those of us still waiting, I spoke with admissions (again) today. When my son had his alumni interview, they told him their goal was to have a large admissions “wave” by Christmas. I called to ask them when they began their holiday (Friday 12/21 through January 2) and she confirmed that this last week is “all hands on deck” for getting through as many applications as possible by Friday. Let’s hope our future Tigers get some good news for Christmas!

I got accepted today!

Congratulations , @calnji2023 ! They must have been busy today! I saw tons of acceptance retweets on Twitter and my DS got his good news today, too!

Finally received decision…son got in!! To those also accepted - when did you receive your PAWs Id? We can not access the portal without this.
