Hi, I applied ED for Arts and Sciences and didn’t hear anything yesterday. Has anybody else not heard? Do they release in waves? I’m worried.
My daughter applied ED for Bandier and heard nothing! So stressed! She wants it so bad!
Arts and sciences as well and haven’t heard back. When do you think we will hear back? Monday? Should we be worried or is it random?
I also applied to newhouse ed and haven’t heard back. Syracuse confirmed ed comes out in waves but I think they release decisions completely random. Hoping for the best!!
also hi!!! I have been reading and living off this thread for the past few days and finally made an account. I applied ed to newhouse and have not yet heard. If anyone hears anything about the next round pls lmk!!! And if your also a newhouse ed student and haven’t heard (or just a student in general) please lmk!!! Thanks so much!

Omg!!! So glad people are in the same boat as me. It’s so frustrating how they don’t release them all at once, and even more so that they did it on a Friday so the second round would have to wait an entire weekend. Ugh!

my weighted is only a 3.5 i think
That’s amazing!!! I have similar but different stats to you. Did you have a lot of communication related ec’s/was your essay really strong? Also what is your major within newhouse?
I have soooo many communication related ec’s along with leadership roles and 2 varsity sports, explained why my gpa was a little lower, and also have done so much demonstrated interest, have legacy, did summer college with them, interviewed, etc.
Sorry for all the questions and extra info!!! I just want newhouse so bad and have been working really hard for it haha!!
no you’re fine!
i had a 3.1 unweighted which was low, but i’m in a very challenging stem program within my school and took loads of honors and aps (which had to help me)
i really don’t have many outstanding ec’s, but i have been playing with a syracuse varsity esports team, did an interview and went to a lot of the demonstrated interest sessions
i think my essay also showed more of my personality so i was chillin

Newhouse question-- Does anyone know what the more competitive majors are in Newhouse? My son is applying RD and is debating btw Advertising and Photograghy.
yes!!! the bandier program!! they only have 35 seats (I believe) for the incoming freshman class and you can’t transfer into it! otherwise all newhouse majors are competitive but not as selective as bandier!
