@NEBlue OMG! Congratulations! He received an email or phone call?
I was taken off of the waitlist and was accepted into Newhouse today.
For those taken off waitlist did you call, email admissions? Or did it just happen after you accepted waitlist? Both my girls were waitlisted
@Lac48220 My son was taken off the waitlist on Friday. He had not called or emailed admissions. Still no word on any financial aid yet though. Nothing posted on his portal so without knowing how much it will cost us its almost like a non-decision anyway…the wait continues.
@dragonfly121212 May I ask what college your son applied for?
For me, I didn’t call or email. I accepted my spot on the waitlist and then a couple days later I received another email stating I was accepted into my school of choice for my chosen major.
However, it might help to call/email and inquire as you never know how it might help your chances. I was set on my second choice school when I accepted my spot on the waitlist because I expected to hear by/after June 1st but I quickly changed my mind when I received my acceptance.
I thought that Syracuse would not be an option either, but their financial aid package really surprised me! We have an EFC of $24 500 and my husband and I are both teachers. Syracuse offered my D a grant of $30 000, making the cost of attendance around $35 000 (excluding loans and work study). My D has chosen to not attend Syracuse and will be OOS in a state university because it felt like a much better fit socially and academically. However, do not be discouraged by the cost of attendance. Syracuse does offer good financial aid, at least in our case. By the way, my D applied RD and received her decision the very last day of March.
@president2132 How long did it take for her to see her financial aid package? I’m waiting for mine on MySlice.
one week. Acceptance on 3/31. FA email on 4/7.
@bling0202 He applied to Whitman
I just emailed my interviewer as well as the office of admissions (in attempts to further show my interest). I also have a letter or rec in the works. Is there anything else I could do? Syracuse is my top it better be worth waiting for!
Thank you @bling0202 - He received an email notification and an official letter of acceptance in the mail today.
do you think they be will sending more notifications today for waitlist?
Wow that’s awesome! Can I ask what Syracuse email address he sent his email to?
@bling0202 did he get any finanial aid or grant funds ?
My daughter was taken off the waitlist today (Whitman), we have not received the FA information yet, so we are excited and hoping for some FA so that she will be able to attend. Everybody still waiting stay positive.
Did you call or e mail after being waitlisted?
What were her stats ?
@tat91 She called and emailed her continued interest, stats SAT 1300, AP, EC, Honors, recommmendations, etc.
@hollow392 May I ask, who she emailed? The general admissions office?
