For what it’s worth, for everyone worried about what is still coming out at this point, D’s package arrived today. She was accepted to the Commonwealth Honors program with a Chancellors scholarship (we are OOS). Letters were dated 1/6 and 1/7 respectively.
@ifrydr What’s your daughter’s major?
Good Luck!
My husband called anonymously today and they said they are running 2 weeks behind schedule. Yes, we could be waiting 2 more weeks!
My S was accepted yesterday via snail mail with 3.0 GPA and 24 act. 2 time state champion football, youth football coach and other extra curriculars. Those with lower academic stats definitely have a chance!
@Themclos - Yes I am an international student
That is so awesome @footballmomz. My daughter has a 3.2 over 12 extracurriculars and leadership positions, so you are the first to give me hope!!!
S was accepted on his Spire Account as of this morning, and he checks each day. There is zero information except a Congratulations because when he clicks on admission communication there is nothing there. I guess he will wait for the snail mail to arrive with any information/scholarship etc. (None Recieved yet). We are OOS.
A big white envelope from UMass just arrived in the mail for my son! Hoping it is good news!
@ReRe568 Was it an acceptance? When and what major did he apply and when was the letter dated? I still haven’t received any news.
He isn’t home from school yet! He has practice until 4:30, I am dying, I want to open it! His application was processed October 26 and he applied to the school of Natural Sciences.
Well, the big, white envelope is good (acceptance) news. And hopefully, he was admitted to the school of his choice.
For the love of god I want a letter
Just get accepted with a big white envelope mail to my home !!!

Is he going to play football?
I found out today that I got rejected. I have a 3.6 (weighted) GPA, 26 ACT, 1200 M/R SAT, great extra-curricular activities (captain of the varsity field hockey team, varsity lax, national honors society). I had my dad call admissions at umass today and they said that they have had a record number of applications and that they couldn’t accept everyone-even those who are really good students- to umass this year, but that I can re apply as a transfer in the future. Fortunately I am going to be attending UNH in the fall so I don’t really care, but I’m still shocked that I didn’t get accepted. Good luck everyone else and hopefully you get in.
My son was accepted today, exploratory track college of natural sciences, this was his first choice. Letter was dated January 8, we are in state, no scholarship.
Fieldhockyxoxo- Sorry you did not get in. You are a good soul for wishing others well. Good for you for accepting disappointment well and turning towards the wonderful opportunity you have st UNH. I read a saying once that said “Life is like a river, it goes where it must”…follow your particular river and keep that positive attitude!
