<p>Acceptances - was anyone nominated to be a President’s Scholar in their acceptance packet? Thank you!</p>
<p>rb1995- my representative said " If you have been awarded a university scholarship, that information will be included in your acceptance packet. Departmental Scholarship Award Letters will be sent later. " I assume the Departmental includes Presidential and Hunts.</p>
<p>ahha thanks very much ktf! i hope i get a presidential invite. Can anyone guesstimate the stats required in gpa, rank, sat scores and ec for this invitation? And just curious ktf since you told us you really wanted to get scholarships have you recieved any yet?!!</p>
<p>I haven’t gotten my letter yet, because I’m from CA. I have a 33 ACT, 3.95 u/w GPA with all honors and tons of ECs and community service. I really hope they’re generous, because I qualify for no need based aid but need about $30k in scholarships to make it feasible to attend. I’m praying for Hunts or Presidential!</p>
<p>I live in Dallas and I gave received anything yet, about five kids from my school applied EA and none of us have heard/gotten anything thus far.</p>

<p>I just received my acceptance! I also got the Second Century Scholarship (20k per year). I’m thankful for any merit money, but my family definitely can’t afford to pay 30k every year! I hope I get some of the other scholarships that are sent in February.</p>
<p>I was accepted!! from dallas 3.1 and 24 act!!!</p>
<p>Got my acceptance letter today! I got the cornerstone scholarship, which amounts to 44k a year. Not as much as I’d like, but it’s still something. I’m with pandamic, I hope I get some of the other scholarships in February!
I have a question - does being accepted also imply that you were accepted into your college of choice? I put Business in my application, and I want to be sure that I got into Cox.</p>
<p>poc643:
I have similar stats (3.4 GPA, 24 ACT), but I am from Louisiana. I don’t receive anything from SMU yet.</p>
<p>JustinLA- Im in Tennessee… Do you think we will get it monday??</p>
<p>hey poc64 could you pleaseeeee tell us your stats??? I only got 20k a year and seeing that you got 44 i am interested in your stats.</p>
<p>You too pandamec. Nice to compare to others :)</p>
<p>Does honors information come with the smu acceptance packet? I want to go honors, but im not sure how :/</p>
<p>SMUhopeful:
We should receive them by Thursday. I assume we will receive large envelopes and mailed by USPS, so I went to their website and do a price check :)</p>
<p>Will probably get the decision tomorrow im from CA. I really hope I get in its one of my top choices. 3.1 and 1600 on SAT with strong ec’s and good essay explaining low gpa. Great recommendations as well and upward trend, after freshman year ~3.5 average.</p>
<p>Thanks and I sure do hope we get them before thursday</p>
<p>I’m from Chicago and hoping for a letter tomorrow. It sounds like they have only sent out acceptance and deferral letters; so if I don’t receive one does that mean I got denied?</p>
<p>Also in Chicago! Judging by the response time of A&M and TCU I would guess we’ll hear by Tuesday, possibly even Wednesday, the IL postal service is kinda crappy. I’m looking to just get accepted, my stats are lackluster at best (3.15 UW GPA {at private school with difficult grading scale, recalculated to about a 3.65 UW at the public high school} and a 33 ACT {35 Superscore}) I visited back in June and loved it, kinda just wish to get in, a scholarship would be nice but I’m not counting on it. Got deferred from U of I and denied at Notre Dame this weekend.</p>
<p>Could someone who has been accepted (congrats!) describe the envelope (large/small - color). Thanks.</p>
<p>I just talked to a friend who got her letter… The 44k cornerstone is a total of 44k, so 11k per year.</p>
