Still Waiting on a Decision for Fall 2016

Colleges and Universities A-Z Howard University

Hi Everyone,

 I've seen a lot of chatter about people still not receiving decision letters from Howard. Nobody from my school has heard from Howard and about 5 students applied. I applied for the Art program and meet the requirements in December. Slideroom was down at the time and I wasn't able to submit my portfolio and supplementals until January. After calling a few times I was told by both the art department and admissions department that everything was received and I'd get a decision in a few weeks. I'm usually calm about waiting but I learned that people who applied in February have gotten their decisions AND financial aid. Is anyone else having this kind of issue?

Yes I’m having this issue and I’m very nervous but I applied kind of late (2/11/16) so I figured that’s why it is taking a while. But I do try to keep in contact with the office or admissions and every time I email them or call them they inform me that my application is still “processing” and the they do not have a decision making date so you can honestly get the acceptance letter at any point in time before college starts I guess
