UMass Amherst Class of 2020 Decision Thread

anyone else have that

Yeah I had that but I clicked on main menu and then admissions and it brought me to the regular screen. Also, still nothing from UMass in the mail today… this is getting really annoying, it’s kind of ridiculous that they say any time from mid-December to mid-January like that’s a whole months difference. I feel like if they aren’t able to mail out all decisions at least withing the same two weeks then they should have just done rolling -_-

No word here either in MA and no Spire changes.

the main menu thing has no options when i click on it

my spire also says “spire help” and “umass home”. earlier this morning it said I was accepted, now it shows this. admissions said this is normal. she confirmed my acceptance. you may have missed the earlier acceptance screen

No changes or updates here either on Mass North Shore. It is what it is. Later than we would like but it will come eventually.

The KEY to it is patience @jakeybake :slight_smile: Hopefully Santa will bring us some :wink:

wait so how can i check cause when i click Umass home and log in again nothing happens its just a white screen with one button that works and thats the umass home button

oh wait nvm it logged in this time and it still says under review. Is that bad? a rejection?

No. Under review does not mean a rejection. I called and spoke to admissions. This year there is a record number of applicants. I was told there is no pattern to the information flowing back out to applicants. He also said letters will be coming until the end of January. Good luck to all.

i was only worried because it went down and then came up as under review again

Still have not received a notice :frowning:

Yes, I really hope I hear back soon :frowning:
hopefully this week!

@warrior481 You might want to call them to find out if they have your correct email address and that they received all your materials on time.

I would not expect that the admissions committee is working on Christmas Eve or Christmas, so notices probably won’t start coming out again until Monday at the the earliest. Why not expect your decision January 15? Then you might be grateful to hear earlier. I appreciate their honesty, and their willingness to release decisions as they make them, rather than waiting until the end for everyone.

@Sean67208 What are your son’s stats?

@sreya124 SAT: 2180 (CR: 660 Math: 800 Writing: 720) GPA Weighted 4.47

Yeah i know whaf you mean @crowlady i have just been very nervous bc my stats arent good enough for the majors that i applied for which just makes me more worried. Hearing sooner ratherthan later would just take so much weight off of my shoulders.

Which major did you apply for? @warrior481

@abhiyo 1st choice was pre med & second was biology

Any music majors hear yet?
