Non answer?

My D got email last week on EA that they want to first have a phone interview before they make a decision. Thoughts on that?

I receive a letter today with the same information. I have a 4.17 gpa, 31 act, tons of extracurriculars with leadership positions, over 100 volunteer hours, 13 honors and AP classes and I am a “Furman Scholar.” I was able to apply for free and given a scholarship, but not accepted into the school? I have been accepted to all right other universities I applied to, some ranked higher than Furman by US News, and am genuinely confused as no other university balked at my immediate admission.

Did either of you visit the school? Perhaps Furman is worried about “Tufts Syndrome”, and want to make sure they are not your safety school.

Just a thought…Good luck!

My daughter applied regular decision and she doesn’t know if she is accepted yet or not. Decisions to be mailed April 1. We called the school and said they would like to see her Art personally ( not just online) to see if she will qualify for an art scholarship. Kind of strange I think since we don’t even know if she has been accepted. We are going and hoping that this means she has been accepted? Of course it will take a lot of aid for it to be affordable.
