No problem.
But i don’t think March 12 is accurate. People have been getting their admissions decisions everyday, as shown in other forums. I don’t believe that they are letting people know by school or location, it seems pretty random. I feel like SU’s strategy for sending out letters out is completely random, but im sure you will find out soon. GOOD LUCK!!</p>

<p>SU sent an email to my son’s school stating that they had a full tuition scholarship for minorities under represented in Architecture who wish to major in that area.</p>
