My daughter just accepted too! We’re OOS, but I’m an alumni so she’s very excited to be accepted and hear so soon. Applied 9/8 with 4.2 gpa and 33 ACT. Go Green and good luck to everyone!
My daughter’s application was complete by Sept. 1, and we heard today, so I imagine you’ll hear within a week, latest. Good luck.
Daughter just texted me. She has been accepted to MSU. She has a W GPA 3.7 and was a 1210 old SAT (CR & Math) and a 26 ACT. Education major. MSU is OOS for us but one of her top three choices. Looking forward to our official visit and tour in a few weeks.
Applied 9/2, accepted for Political Science/Pre-law this morning!

ACCEPTED TODAY!!! Congrats everyone!
@microssrunner17 The Honors College website says it reviews accepted students and begins extending invitations approximately 8 weeks after acceptance. So more waiting…
Got in today! 34 ACT 3.84 W GPA In-state
James Madison btw
They started reviewing my app yesterday, anyone know how long the wait is until I find out??
To clarify what squarerootof64 is saying…
How long does it take to get an admission status after the online portal says “Your application is currently under consideration with your reviewing counselor. You will receive an initial decision on your application for admission within 12 weeks. Your patience during the review process is greatly appreciated.”
I had all of my materials submitted Sept 30. For those that have been accepted, how long between this statement saying they’re reviewing and actually getting a decision?
I got the exact same status update this morning as well!! All documents were recieved by sept 22. Hopefully we find out what are decision is soon and not 12 weeks from now.
@msu2021 I didn’t check my portal except for about a week before my decision and when I got it, and I never saw it say anything about a counselor looking at it. I believe that the timing of your decision all depends on how fast your admissions person is. I’ve heard that different people are assigned to different regions, so it depends on their speed.
D was accepted earlier this week!
Have you heard anything yet? @msugirl2021
@squarerootof64 No 
not yet. I’m in state by the way. You?
