I honestly have no idea, @201five. Both my kids applied ED and accepted their merit. It is also possible that the University scholarships may be handled differently than the individual College scholarships.
@sfruhling Yes. Many people are offered admission to either their second choice major (if they listed one) or to the College of Arts and Sciences (typically, could also be another school I guess). Please keep in mind though that it is VERY difficult to transfer into Newhouse as a sophomore or junior. Not impossible, but I remember reading that the minimum (college) GPA to transfer in last year was 3.9.
@sfruhling from what i remember from talking to admissions, if you put down another choice on your application you can be accepted to that school if you arenât for newhouse, but if you are rejected from all, youâre unfortunately rejected⊠I could be wrong though!
@portalupdateplz okay thanks! I was getting curious bc I also applied to BU and they had portal messages that meant certain things
@sfruhling TY we are very excited!!!
@solarique yes they called to congratulate my daughter and is sending her a sweatshirt. It was very personal and exciting.
Still no word 
The website says notification is late March⊠is that accurate or do we think itâs earlier than that?
@sfruhling Iâm guessing anytime between the 13th-18th based on previous years and the fact that some people got acceptances already
Sure doesnât give a lot of time to make decisions!
We are under the impression the decision date is March 15th. I believe it was in a communication they sent or we read online.
Will be interested to see if more decisions trickle out tomorrow and subsequent Fridays until the big day.
@otto4991 same here i am so anxious about my application. i applied to whitman and i liked syracuse more than any other schools. hopeful for some sort of scholarship to make it more affordable
Quite a few decisions came out in February and everyone is anxious. However, getting your decisions in March does not mean you are out of luck for scholarships. I know someone was awarded full tuition scholarship but did not get his decision until 2nd Friday of March. So all is possible and donât lose hope.

I think the question is what time were decisions released last Friday in case there are more today.
are decisions coming out tonight?? isnât it a little early??
I doubt decisions are coming out tonight, I think itâll probably be in a week or two.
