<p>She also applied to other schools so not sure where she is going yet.</p>

<p><strong><em>BUT a girl from her school had a 28 ACT and 4.3 GPA and was rejected (offered to go to OSU at Mansfield)</em></strong></p>

<p>I agree OSUBuck216, I believe race played a huge roll on my acceptance. How on earth did I get in with a 23 ACT, 3.4 UW 3.7 W GPA and the girl from OhioMom’s daughter’s school gets rejected with those stats? But hey I’m not complaining. Congrats guys!(:</p>

<p>I was accepted as well, my stats are not that great,
uw GPA-3.92
ACT-low 30’s
8 AP classes
some EC, figure skating, NHS, High School News Paper,
I got in on the skin of my teeth! Do our essays play a major part in our acceptance? Could that be the difference in the cases where our stats are low verses being URM?</p>

<p>Deferred…</p>

First-generation college student
OOS</p>

<p>I’m so excited! Ohio State is my top choice, and I was getting a little nervous as I applied about 10 weeks ago.</p>

<p>Is there a facebook group yet?</p>

<p>I applied on November 29th and my online application status switched to “Admitted” on December 6th. I was absolutely shocked to receive a decision in only a week!</p>

<p>My packet has not yet come in the mail. My question is, will it let me know if I have received any scholarships (National Buckeye, Trustee, etc.) or does this decision come at a later date? </p>

<p>Thanks! </p>

<p>P.S. - This is my first post!</p>

<p>Halo512, last year my daughter received her letter of acceptance to OSU, and then it was followed within about three weeks by a letter notifying her she had received the Maximus Scholarship. Scholarship letters are sent out separately, and in fact, you probably will receive a flurry of mail from Ohio State in the coming weeks.</p>

<p>Deferred as well. :frowning:

I’m very excited to hear about scholarships or financial aid etc.</p>

<p>Just found out that Ohio State reviews application in the order of a persons last name.</p>

<p>Hmm, I haven’t heard that. It doesn’t seem like that based on the people i know who got in. Not sure though!
Also, I was accepted 11/16 - in-state, 31 ACT, 4.4 weighted GPA. Yay! :slight_smile:
Finally, is there an official Facebook group? I’ve seen I couple, but they don’t seem real or right (like people pretending they’re upperclassmen and I don’t think they really are, or no group admins haha?).
Did anyone else apply for Honors/Scholars?</p>

<p>Yeah tht doesn’t seem right. 7 people from my school have been admitted and our last names range from B to T. If that were the case my sister would have had her decision by now :confused:
osuab16, I think there’s a FB group. There’s only like 5 people who like it so it’s kind of sketchy. Maybe I’m wrong.lol</p>

<p>Accepted!!! :smiley:
Im an international student :slight_smile:
I sent the application on november 29th and my application status changed to “acceptance” this morning :)</p>

<p>For US residents, there is no seperate scholarship application right? Im an international student living in dubai (indian), but I just wanted to know as everyone here is saying ‘waiting for scholarships’ and stuff. </p>

<p>Yay!! :smiley: :P</p>

<p>Yeah, I really wanna join a group on Facebook but don’t know which is real! I guess I’ll just wait until they get bigger and join.</p>

<p>This Facebook group looks like it’s getting more attention:</p>
