Do you think it’s likely we got rejected if we haven’t received an email yet?
@listcollegehere i think you’re less likely to get merit aid, but you will probably still be considered, just later than the priority applicants
For everyone that found out so far, did you get anything in the mail or just a notification on your registered email to check your myroc account?
This wasn’t even on our radar to be looking so soon but don’t know if my daughter checks her email she used that much or not.
@skateguy50 D got an email to check her myroc portal.
was trying to reply to this message “02-20-2018 at 3:06 am
I have been waitlisted? What are the chances of getting accepted of the waitlist at Rochester.”
In general not sure on the wait list, but from what we read the college is need blind for regular decisions but not need blind for wait list. So for us we decided if she doesn’t get in we won’t pursue the wait list as that would be a factor against her getting in. Not sure if that affects you but if your not looking for aid it might work in your favor.
@MomOutWest thanks, she just checked nothing yet. Not sure it’s good or bad I let her know to start checking sooner lol
Does Rochester send out paper acceptance letters to domestic applicants or is it just via the portal?
DS applied priority, and hadn’t heard yet. I had him check yesterday and he realized that the HS never sent his mid year grades. UGH…sent yesterday - maybe that’s why he hasn’t heard about acceptance.
If it’s the school she wants to attend, why does it matter?
What I meant was if she doesn’t get in the first round and wait list isn’t need blind it could mean she has a lower chance or getting in. So if she has an acceptance from another school we would not risk that. Still hoping it works out.
I see no risk. She can be accepted at the other school and still be on the wait list at the first.
Any RD accepted applicants received merit aid yet?
I was just accepted ED2 and yes, domestic applicants receive acceptance in the portal, and in the mail as well.
@soledad2022 Just received Xerox scholarship today, got an email.
My D who applied RD just received notice of a (small) renewable merit scholarship.
Was accepted on 2/19 and received an email today notifying me that I was awarded the Dean’s scholarship
I was accepted on 2/19 and notified today that I received the Whipple Science and Research Scholarship.
I was accepted 2/19. I just received a Bosch + Lomb scholarship of $16,000 a year. I was hoping for more… I don’t know how I’ll be able to afford $55,000 a year…
Has anyone received a RIG (research and innovation grant) with their merit scholarship?
I was accepted 2/19 and just got notification I received the George Eastman Young Leaders Award - $10k/yr
