Post stats and results come March!
DS received acceptance notice yesterday; ACT 32
Music scholarship finalist in both voice & sax
@Bekp2018 Was DS ED2 or RD? Also, was notice e-mail or snail-mail?
He didn’t specifically request ED, but had his materials in fairly early. Snail mail packet, and yes, we were somewhat surprised to receive it mid-February, but not sure how the music finalist played into that.
Congratulations to your S on his admission! Our S is also a music scholarship finalist with RD application. Nothing yet regarding acceptance - submitted application late Dec.
Got in with a presidential scholarship! From Oregon, 31 on the ACT
We’re interested as well. Our kid applied RD in December, 32 ACT, music finalist, etc, from Virginia. Waiting is sooo hard.
From reading the same thread for last year’s class, they send out the presidential scholarship acceptances first, and then so on down the merit scholarship line (or so it appeared). People also noticed that their admissions portal changed to “awaiting” a $300 deposit and then a day or two later their big gold envelope would arrive. My daughter applied RD and got her acceptance envelope on Tuesday with a presidential scholarship. She is also a music finalist.
Yes, our son also received the Presidential scholarship. But since my husband teaches at another ELCA college that has reciprocity w/ StO for the faculty dependent tuition waiver, it may or may not come into play.
Our son recieved his gold envelope today, in VA, and the St. Olaf Scholarship (10K a year). He’s on Ole!
S received acceptance letter yesterday with Dean’s Scholarship. ACT was 31.
St Olaf Admissions Facebook post says they put decisions in the mail yesterday! Hoping there is good news in all our mailboxes soon!
Very excited that S17 is in! But need to wait for financial aid letter before any decision will be made.
I got my letter in the mail!! I got in!! Everyone should check their mailboxes…
I also just got the acceptance package in the mail; do they include scholarships on the acceptance letter? I’m assuming I didn’t get any. Also, when do financial awards become available?
Nothing in today’s mail, hopefully Monday.
Yeah my letter said the scholarship I received and also that the financial aid package would be mailed within 2 weeks.
So… I’m curious where people are so we can track the snail mail progress:).
I’m from the Chicago suburbs.
