No. No later than March 1 on TUPortal.

Applied in August and still haven’t heard anything back yet. I heard from a friend who recently toured that they haven’t even begun reviewing applications yet. I hope that isn’t true, because, if so, they’ve got a lot on their plate. Disappointing!

This says merit awards are generally given with your acceptance letter

I checked my portal this a.m. and it said accepted. I then got an email which said a letter of acceptance would be mailed in the next 7-10 days.

@nothingworks101 congrats!! I’m still waiting. When did you apply?

Congrats!! @nothingworks101

I applied the middle of August but my application wasn’t marked complete until September 8. So almost 2 months. I really think they just started reviewing applications recently.

Accepted message on portal this morning. Award not posted at this time.

When did you apply? @ididntknowthat

Common application downloaded 9/11

@ididntknowthat congrats!!

Thanks! Now just as important is any award. They revamped the merit policy. Likely much less will be awarded than two years ago. In fact the president and another administrator were “fired” over the debt incurred by the previous merit policy. I’m not hopeful much will be offered to me; at least nowhere near what I might have received based on the previous system.

Since the merit policy has changed and is much more uncertain now, if people could post their stats and merit awards (when you get them), it would be very much appreciated!

My daughter found out today that she was accepted via the portal but all other info to come through the mail…fingers crossed for honors college.

Just received my acceptance today and I applied on 10/14

Daughter received acceptance today - applied mid-October. Doesn’t say which major - she applied for business. I imagine there will be a follow up letter. Very excited, but also waiting to hear on merit.

My app was completed 10/15 and I haven’t heard anything. Applied to Fox

DS was accepted 11-4. No information other than an acceptance package would be in the mail in 7-10 days. Nothing yet. Does anyone know if they usually send merit aid out with acceptance?
