University of Delaware Class of 2022

Son Accepted to Management Information Systems (MIS) program

@northdakota2018 from our experience you will get a letter via with merit money 2-3 weeks after admittance. However if you just put your child’s stats into the npc on the website it will give you the amount of merit money they are going to give you.

Just got accepted into the Human Relations and Administration program!!!

Accepted to Psychology (BS) program! Major disappeared on Tuesday or Wed… Refreshed at 8pm tonight and my acceptance was there with confetti!

Accepted to the Exercise Science program!!!

my S got accepted! But second choice which is Accounting. But at least, he can change major if need be. Just waiting for the other 3 colleges! Thank God!

@dad1023 so glad for him - congrats!

So happy for your son @dad1023! He can relax and enjoy the holiday break now!

Congratulations @bisonj, @nvvsir and @seniorco2018!

DD got in UD Honors!!! Major: Computer Science GPA: 4.25/ACT: 30 In-state DE
Applied on 11/15 - major disappeared on 12/19, got accepted 12/22 @8pm sharp. Confetti & banners on the portal!!!
Other info - haven’t received any email from UD though (since the start of the process)…no snail mail in yet …no merit aid info. on the portal either.
Got no email for getting accepted - do we need to worry??
DD has applied to UMD as well - would it be worth to pay extra to go to UMD college park over UD for Comp Science major?
CC has been a huge supporting factor…Thanks to you all! was a silent member for the longest :slight_smile:

@1happymum my daughter was accepted on the portal in October, honors program as well. She is still waiting on any official snail mail from Udel with merit or even hardcopy of acceptance. So while some hear within two weeks, a few others haven’t received anything yet. Not sure why, but she is assuming she’ll get 12-15k based on the calculator and her ACT of 34. I think it’s a good computer science program but I can’t say vs UMD. My personal theory is go where she’ll have little to no debt.

@AmyBeth68 Congratulations to your daughter! Did your daughter get any email correspondence??
Well, you have been waiting for almost two months here…you definitely deserve to get the official yellow envelope by now…I am really hoping we get it within 2 weeks period, but let’s see.
I agree, nothing better than going debt free, considering UD Honors would be a challenging program in itself.

I received an email from the UD music department yesterday saying that I needed to audition for their program (my second choice major was one of their voice majors) in order to be admitted to that program. Did anybody else receive a similar email and was accepted to UD shortly after that?

@1happymum no email either but a linked portal letter. Many congratulations to your daughter, I truly hope she gers the official packet sooner than my daughter lol! I’m a Udel alum as is my husband, we know it’s a great college that can open doors! Good luck with her decision, but it’s nice to have this acceptance in her pocket.

D18 accepted Honors for medical diagnostics, pre-PA applied 11/24 no idea when major disappeared because she doesn’t check portals. Very happy since she had a deferral earlier in the week.
@AmyBeth68 did you ever get any merit information? I read somewhere that a letter comes 2-3 weeks after acceptance…

@MPT3D no letter other than link on portal offering admission and honors. No merit at all. There are a few of us on here accepted in October with no merit yet or packet. :slightly_frowning_face:

@AmyBeth68 I’m sure it’s an oversight. Our big PA public HS had a few kids attend this year with 33 and 34 ACT and great merit out of state. Sounds like your D18 will have some nice affordable options, best of luck in this process.

@AmyBeth68 Thanks for the kind words!
Some good news from our end - daughter got the Welcome yellow packet just now in mail. She is super excited.
I think your packet has got lost in mail. Please reach out to UD in Jan, and request them to send over again.
All the very best!

I don’t suppose there will be are any more updates until after the new year? BTW still can’t figure out why we could sign up for decision day but yet no other sign of acceptance. :frowning:

Son just got home from work and opened his yellow packet. Accepted to honors program as biological sciences major. He applied at the end of November has not been checking portal regularly. It looks as if there is no typical timeframe for merit awards, huh?
