Wow that surprises me those are killer stats. So sorry, I can totally understand your frustration. It has to be due to nursing only having a limited number of spots, otherwise doesn’t make any sense!

Wow. Your daughter’s stats are excellent. I know it’s a holistic review and kids are much more than numbers but tough when looking at stats like your daughter’s. My daughter: Hispanic, 3.8 unweighted, 4.7 weighted, no SAT/ACT, 4 years HS volleyball, 6 years club volleyball, many service hours, COVID volunteer work, took classes over summer to load up on a couple of more science classes, great essays. My daughter is so disappointed. I know it’s a super competitive program. Hoping her first semester grades help (they’re great), but again, I just don’t want to get her hopes up.

Daughter accept, pre-business. 3.8 UW, 4.1W, no scores, in a dual enrollment program in CA. 4 year varsity golf, work experience, and internships. Founders scholarship - $12k
Congrats to all that were accepted. Sounds like there are lots of deferrals this year, so hang in there it is a very unusual year.
Wow your daughter’s stats are great too. Now I’m wondering if we should have applied ED. She didn’t want to be locked in either though, even though TCU is her top choice. I am sorry you are going through this too, it’s so hard to have them work so hard and have this happen. I wasn’t expecting it, to be honest, but this is a crazy year in all ways. We are in Southern California, where are you?
Same. We weren’t expecting it. But it is a tough and very different year. We’re in Austin, TX. She’ll submit first semester grades and see what happens, hope for the best. It’s a great school! I’m just curious to hear from anyone if it’s worth going the deferment round especially for nursing. I may call them on Monday. Ugggh, so sad for my girl.

My daughter is now on an app called zeemee with a bunch of people from all over the country (then you join the TCU group I guess) and the deferment for nursing and bio majors this year is huge. It looks like almost every early action nursing applicant was deferred. (I’m sure some got in but this app chat is indicating large percentage of deferment.)

Interesting! Makes me feel a little better, but still stings. It’s ok, it’ll be fine. She’ll submit her 1st semester grades and whatever happens then… happens! Thanks for the update. Let me know if you learn anything else!

Will do! Hang in there, it will all work out (or at least my glass of wine says it will! Haha!)
Pre-Business. We also applied to SMU, no words yet. Have you heard about your Baylor’s?
@DNapier Nope, nothing from Baylor yet. Expecting that one to be after Christmas at this point. Just trying to stay patient - luckily the very good news from TCU tonight will definitely help with that!! In the mean time, I also have Tennessee, South Carolina, and Notre Dame all next week to stress about, haha.
Hopefully your daughter hears from SMU soon!
