**Rochester 2019 RD Discussion Thread!**

Everyone receiving decisions, can you post what step you were on, when you moved to that step (if you remember), when you applied (most did this, thank you), and post stats on the decision thread (Thanks and Congrats!!)

I’m in Colorado!

Congrats to everyone getting these today! D just got home a few minutes ago! Whew…that was fun! We’re in Maine. Nice to see sofla1 is from our old stomping grounds. D applied Thanksgiving…went to step 4 at the end of December, I think. Still on step 4 as of this morning.

By the way, the letter was ver personalized too. Very nice! Thank you UofR!!

How was your letter personalized? I know I’ve read that theyve spoken about essays, specific ECs, etc. What about for you?

** [size=4]Also please post stats here: http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/university-rochester/1743310-rochester-2019-rd-results-only-thread.html#latest

Did anyone receive merit information? We did not.

Congrats to everyone who got in :slight_smile: has anyone from CA or just in general the west coast received anything?

My letter referenced my “Why Rochester?” essay, my primary extracurricular passions, and my intended major as factors that went into my admission decision. And I didn’t get any merit scholarship information either, hopefully that should be coming soon!

Letter was personalized by mentioning her management position at her work that she has held since she was 16…and her leadership positions at school. The principal actually asked her to be on the board, as a student representative, that interviewed and hired a new teacher. Have never heard of that happening before. No merit info included.

The ED admissions packets didn’t have merit info included either. (I remember because I started panicking!) It came a couple of days later.

did anyone get an email saying the myroch has their decision? I’m not at home so I checked mine, and the only part of the website that loaded was I’m on step 4 and a new thing asking for my tshirt size.

so, did anyone else get this? hopefully they are not sending a rejection tshirt

I just got an email telling me that they finished reviewing my application and to check the portal…Accepted!! Everything is the same except for an Admission Reply form at the bottom with the option to accept/decline admission. So happy! (Also: nothing in the mail today, just this email)

I got my letter today! Accepted!! I also got the email to check MyRoch, but it’s not loading. Maybe a traffic jam or something.

Got an email today, but no letter yet (I’m in Michigan). MyROC took a long time to load, but it also showed the “admission reply form.”

Everyone remember to fill out the Decisions Only thread

My daughter received her letter today. It was not personalized, but we’ll take it anyway. We are in NY state a few hours from Rochester. She applied mid-November. Still on Step 4.

Son accepted! got a letter in the mail today. As of this morning he was still on Stage 4 - can’t even get into system now to see if it updated. System seems to be crashing. He got a nice personalized letter that says they looked at more than just grades and liked his mix of interests in physics, music and running. will post stats later.

Anyone from Missouri get notified today?

I’m assuming no one that was/is on step 3 has been notified, correct?

My daughter had been on stage four for a while.
