@TomSrOfBoston , that link above doesn’t get people where they need to go.

Congrats to people accepted so far! Im an EA applicant, hoping this means we will hear next Tues at 7pm!!

Do you check just by opening up the NU portal sent by email?

accepted into NUin …feels like a rejection.

Well I got deferred - did anyone get denied? Or is being deferred just a polite denial?

If anyone would Im sure we EA applicants would appreciate some stats from various people-NUin, deferred, or accepted

Deferred:

GPA 3.21 (3.6 junior year and 3.8 so far senior year)
SAT: 2090
SAT CR+M: 1420
Other: Eagle Scout, 2 sports, a bunch of clubs.
Essay: Good, I’ll see if I can upload an updated version of it eventually.

I have to wait until April 1st now…not happy. At least I can prove I’m an A student by keeping the GPA up.

Since the ED decision release followed last year’s schedule the EA decision release will likely be next Tuesday. @laughandlearn23 EA and RD decisions start to be released at 3 PM EST and it takes hours for them to flow around the country.

NIUIn

if you were offered this I recommend that you go to YouTube and search “NU IN (country name)”. It appears that there is a requirement for students to produce a short video of their experience in the program. Some indicate that they were initially disappointed in the decision but have enjoyed the experience tremendously.

Are you guys bejng serious?

Ohhhh my god the email is in. I woke up from my nap and it’s in!

About what, @absquedecorus ?

The decisions being out

I was accepted into the college of engineering! I’m from PA! so excited!!!
