i feel like most likely if its coming today it will be afternoon or later. Thats when the vast majority heard last year. So I am going to go about my day and save the stressing as a real fun way to spend a Friday night :slight_smile:

FWIW, my older child applied last year, and only one person we know heard in the first round. Everyone else waited for the January date. In fact, she didn’t even get her decision on the January date, as OSU had some kind of snafu, so a large chunk of students didn’t hear until several days later, then all from that group were deferred. I am managing my daughter’s expectations based on this experience. I think it’s unlikely to get a decision today.

My daughter is a current OSU student (CO25). When her decision was released in Dec 20 it was in the evening. As I recall most were released beginning early evening all the way past midnight. Her friend didn’t get a decision until the 2nd round in Jan 21. You just need to check the applicant status page during the day. It will simply change from “evaluation” to either “admitted”, “not admitted”, “waitlist”. My son has applied for next Fall however at this point he does not intend to attend OSU. Good Luck

So at the top of the portal, on the right side, there is a little clock which is a NavBar. If you click that, then click Self Service, then Student Admission, there are two options - Accept Admission and Application Status. Does everyone see “Accept Admission”? When I click the link, it takes me back to the application status link, with no new info, so I am wondering if the “Accept Admission” is standard or some kind of hint.

Ours showed that last night with same result. I don’t remember if it was there prior to yesterday.

I see the same thing

it says accept admission and under that it says application status.

I see that too, and when I liked on it, it just took me back to the application status link. Not sure if it was there before.

Me too on seeing what you all are seeing. I guess I should go on about my day and wait until this evening but probably won’t. Good luck to all!

When you have a decision it will show under application status , “admitted”. If it’s still says evaluating than you don’t have a decision

What if they’ve been switched to a regional campus? Does it show admitted.
