Have any early applicants to the received notification of acceptance yet? Please post here if you get notification and how you were notified. Last year they came out on December 15th. The latest they are supposed to be announced is the 20th.
No information yet on this…
On a similar note, has anyone received letters regarding merit awards?
We were just visiting there the week after Thanksgiving, and Connor in SMBHC said they would be coming out on Dec. 22. This seems pretty specific, so it sounds like they are targeting that date, and no earlier.
We’ve heard nothing but crickets… trying to be patient, but it’s hard.
My daughter received her acceptance email this afternoon!
Congrats! My daughter is an oos freshmen in the SMBHC and absolutely loves the program and Ole Miss. Good luck to you and your daughter.
My son got in too! Does anyone know if the Lott Leadership is typically more or less competitive than the SMBHC?
DS got his acceptance email yesterday! Now we have the EE Pharm interview coming up in January. It’s getting real!
My D got her’s yesterday, too!
@crazy4info - I’m glad your daughter got in and that we got the info before the 22nd.
@ohgagirl - I’m glad your son got in. Is the EE Pharm program one that is fewer years? Good luck to him on that.
@bkaris - Congrats to your daughter.
What states are you all from? We live in VA.
@uncletupelo - Do you know if Lott is more competitive or less competitive than SMBHC? Do you know about how many kids are in the Lott program? What can you tell us about scholarships for those programs? I guess chances would be against my son getting one but it would be nice to find out sooner than later.either way.
I think my daughter’s class is around 51. I cannot answer which would be more difficult as I have never seen Lott publish actually ACT/GPA numbers.
My daughter is very, very impressed with the caliber of student in LLI. She says that most in the Lott program are extremely focused/driven and very well rounded.
Good luck to you!
Does anyone know if the Honors College acceptances are all out or rolling?
We are still waiting to hear back.
@dragonmom3 - I have no idea. I didn’t realize they were going to be out this early! I thought we had another week, so maybe they are sending them out over the next several days.
We are in Indiana…
@Windows16 We are in OH just outside of Cincinnati.
Daughter got her acceptance email today!
We are in Austin, TX
Has any student received a letter in December from SMBHC (Sally McDonnell Barksdale Honors College) indicated "you are selected as a finalist and the result will be come out in Mid of March? I’m curious if all the admitted students from SMBHC receives this note or not ?
Did it say finalist for what? D got an $8000/yr scholarship from SMBHC a few years ago, but never had any idea she was a finalist. Just got a phone call from the Dean in March of that year telling her she’d been selected. She loves Ole Miss!
