Deferred from New Jersey
SAT: 2290 superscore
GPA (weighted): 4.2
honestly a bit confused

Anyone know anything about Louisiana EA decisions? My application status check isn’t showing anything new, and I haven’t gotten an email.

If you do not see mention of merit/honors, you did not receive them. For financial aid, be careful to clarify. It could be that the package is not yet ready, or your FA application is missing documents. Do contact admissions/financial aid offices on that one.

@sb9916, @VoldemortStache and others

Hey I’m also from LA and I haven’t received any updates yet. @hopefulliz

Deferred from NY
GPA: 94.74
SAT: 1460
Essay and ECs were best part of my application imo
Really thought I would get in but NEU isn’t too high on my list so not totally devastated

@PengsPhils We submitted FAFSA and CSS Profile in November, but the FA letter says they’re not received. My guess is that the package is not ready.

Decisions will be going out until as late as midnight EST. Most will get their decisions by 8PM local time, with some small exceptions. The decisions radiate out over time from Boston. Currently, the wave is at NJ/NY. Decisions go out hourly, on the hour.

@OCNYmom If they say they are not received, I would check with the FA office and not assume that they have received them. Could be some sort of clerical error on either end. Either way, asking is always best with the FA office.

is texas predicted to release around 7pm?

Son (NY) Accepted in Engineering (interests are CS & EE). Honors college & $27K / year scholarship ($108K total but 30.0 requirement) and Honors Program. GPA - 97.6 (UW), rank (but school does not really rank though think it was noted) - top 1%. 35 ACT & 800 on SAT 2 in Biology, Physics & Math 2. ECs- robotics, comp. sci (co-pres), FBLA awards in mobile app dev. etc.

Congrats to all hearing good news and to those deferred - I truly hope it turns out well for you. So many have stats and academic achievements that appear to be good for NE!

Accepted!
NJ
ACT: 34
GPA: 4.3
Honors College Acceptance w/ $21,000 scholarship

NY Admitted EA!!

1500 SAT
104.8 weighted GPA
1st in class
NMSF

Do they email you that your decision is ready?

I didn’t get any merit or honors btw (not surprisingly either, my stats are ab out average for NU. also many differed people have stats closer to mine so I’m shocked I wasn’t deferred as well) and my financial aid package was missing some stuff so I have no idea if I can even go to my top school yet… Again best of luck to everyone waiting!

Admitted with Deans Scholarship

Accepted for finance along with honors and 21k/year in scholarships! Was not expecting honors or merit, but I will definitely take it! Very nice to get a financial aid package with the decision, and its affordable! Good luck to everyone that was deferred.

@eancsw714 they do email but NJ decisions came out at 5 and my email came exactly 5:49. Check the portal on the hour.
