SYRACUSE UNIVERISTY ED 2020

Hey everyone, I created a new discussion for people in the class of 2020 applying ED to SU

Well I guess I’ll start. Sending my app in tomorrow to Whitman! SAT: 1900 (2400), 1280 (1600). Unweighted GPA is a 3.7. ECs: Varsity Ice Hockey Captain, JV Football Captain, Varsity Lacrosse, Residential Assistant in my dorm, Peer Tutor in math/science, hockey/soccer paid referee and a bunch of community service. Also I go to a competitive boarding school in CT! Wishing good luck to everyone applying this year! Hope to see some more comments!

Hi! I already sent my ED application to Syracuse a while ago in October lol. I’m applying to their CAS as undecided.
I’d rather not put my stats in because I think that’s pointless and creates competition and tension.

Does anyone know the exact date/time that decisions will be released? I’m pretty sure it’s just in mid-december; I hat that syracuse doesn’t give out an exact date, but oh well.

So NERVOUS D:

Applied to engineering a few days ago. They said all decisions will be released before January. Did anyone get their my slice account? I still havent gotten the email.

I got mine on Sunday. Try emailing them and asking for it :slight_smile:

I just got mine this morning.

im so nervous D: i havee to get in.

i have a question for ya’ll?
Why did you guys choose to ED to syracuse? like why syracuse? :slight_smile:

I chose to apply ED because when i visited campus it felt like i belonged there and i knew i didnt want to spend 4 years of my life anywhere else. I really like the sports atmosphere and some of the academic opportunities along with studying abroad.

I chose Syracuse because although I never visited the school I always felt a “connection” with it. Lol its probably stupid but thats the best way I can explain. And plus my cousin goes there. But I chose ED specifically because the odds are in my favor and I really cant see myself at the other schools I applied to

Very, very nervous!! ED applicant to iSchool/Whitman dual program.

same so nervous D: and yea, im applying to syracuse ED because of a lot of reasons that youve already mentioned. I love the diversity of programs and activities of the school and upon visiting, I fell in LOVE with the lush campus and I totally dig the school spirit! go orange! :slight_smile:

another random question lol, did you guys apply for financial aid?

Who knows when decisions come out? Anyone find out?
@ithinkitskatie I think you apply once your accepted, not sure tho

@ithinkitskatie I didnt apply yet. I dont even think I will apply. None of my brothers received it :frowning:

I applied ED
I submitted my application in October but for all my materials to go through it took until Nov 10th ish. The anxiety is real for mid december
I’m black female OOS applying to Newhouse with a 3.8 GPA and a 1900 SAT. I interviewed with them and REALLY REALLY want to go to Syracuse it’s my #1 choice for sure.

So I have a question for you guys. Are you guys aware of the possible financial aid risks applying ED? Does this not worry you guys? I want to apply ED II, but I am afraid my FA package won’t be substantial.

also, what programs did you guys apply to (Newhouse, Whitman, iSchool, etc)?

Theres not really any risk at all. If you can afford to go then they wont hold you to the agreement. It says it on the website: “As noted on the ED Agreement, if you apply for financial aid are not offered an award that makes attendance possible you may decline the offer of admission and be released from the ED commitment.” No need to worry!!!

@loveyounot ^^

@shalimonae did you apply to any other schools?

@loveyounot nope all the other schools on my list have rd deadlines in january and march.
