My D applied early on all her apps. When I checked with umass on her app they said she applied reg decision. I know for a fact it was early as we filled out all apps together. Not sure if she was just def to reg or what but admissions did check and gave me that info. She received congrats letter of acceptance to Arch dept in Jan, contingent on acceptance to umass. So might want call. We moved onto her other accepted schools and will only include mass if it comes back mid march with scholarship. There is lots to do and an April decision just won’t work.
I applied through RD on early Jan and got admitted Feb 17th with 12k/year scholarship. That’s quite unexpected because i think the result will be announced around mid-march. I’m an international student. Does anyone know whar the maximum amount of scholarship IS can get? Thank you
Does anyone with know the requirements for someone in the computing/informatics exploratory track to transfer into the actual CS major? Their website provides no information on specific requirements people in the exploratory track must meet to transfer to the actual major.
Also, I would like to know whether it would be better to pick lower ranked schools that are offering me an actual CS major like Rutgers or CalPoly Pomona.
Accepted to CAS undeclared - social and behavioral sciences track with chancellor’s award (10k/yr)! 3.49 GPA UW, 1320 SAT, 29 ACT. Surprised to hear so early, I just randomly checked out of curiosity.
Also applied RD on Dec 1
Just got accepted today, but I checked my SPIRE account and it won’t let me view my financial award. I’m clicking on it and nothing is coming up. Anyone know why this is happening?
The acceptance letter and FA letters appear in pop-up boxes. If you have pop-ups blocked, you won’t be able to see the actual letter.
yep that was exactly the problem. I went from safari to chrome and the same thing happened except it told me to unblock pop-up boxes and I did. They’re giving me $8000/year by the way, I’m also OOS

Decisions appear as a pop ups. Check your settings and make sure they allow pop up windows.
When did you guys apply? I applied in November regular decision and I haven’t hearad anything yet.
Seems like internationals and OOS students who applied RD are starting to hear. Haven’t seen anything from anyone in-state who applied RD.
I applied in late December. I was honestly surprised I heard back so early considering it said decisions for RD would be released from mid-March to early April, but I guess they’re doing it on a rolling basis.
@misturcliff are you in-state or OOS?
@klinska OOS in New Jersey, but I wouldn’t think they’d release decisions according to that considering most kids who are applying are in-state.
Yeah, maybe it’s just a skewed sample, but some international applicants who applied RD were hearing in early January, and so far the only others (RD) who have heard and have posted are OOS. Last year it appeared to be totally random, so that’ probably the case this year, too. Trying to read the tea leaves on this is a waste of time, lol!
I’m instate, applied early January and haven’t heard back yet. I applied to Isenberg though…so maybe that’s why I haven’t heard yet?
I applied OOS but still have yet to hear back. My app was received on January 4th. Hopefully I get in within the next couple of days. UMass is still one of my top two choices.
