I applied 11/27 and received my acceptance yesterday. My friend is very worried as she applied early October and has not received any information yet. Should she be worried? I’m guessing the release decisions based on of majors and region, but others with her major have been accepted. Her stats are in the range and her ACT is very high so there is no reason she shouldn’t get in.
please share your stats. Still waiting
@1happymum It’s hard to compare the two schools- UMDs Comp Sci department is in the top ten in the nation, and their graduates are usually fielding several good job offers by graduation. However- if Delaware is in state, you have to ask yourself if it is worth the extra $ to go to UMD, despite how prestigious the program is!
How long does it take to receive snail mail? I am in state so I’m hoping I will receive official letter rather quickly. I was accepted on the 22nd any ideas?
Does anyone know when admissions opens back up? This week or not til Jan. 2??? Seeing lots of UDel acceptances on social media these days…
I received a happy holidays email that stated the admissions office reopens January 2nd 2018. My guess is nothing will happen this week. 
Can you share your daughters stats? My son applied business undeclared as well. Waiting to here still. Thanks!
@abbyrubycookie Thanks. Bummer! 
I think maybe you’re seeing acceptances because people may have received their acceptance in the mail still.
Has anyone applying for Marine Science heard anything yet?
Hi I was just accepted into UD with honors but I’m not sure how to see if I have received any merit aid. Is there a way to see financial information on the portal?
@sunny2018 the merit letter (usually) arrives via regular mail a few weeks or so after initial acceptance. Unfortunately my daughter was accepted into Udel and the Honors program back in October and still hasn’t received her packet or financial merit package although that does seem out of the ordinary. Hopefully you’ll be hearing very soon. And Congratulations on your acceptance!!! 
Oh ok! thank you!
what is decision day?
@rmbmsb It is a day that Delaware hosts where admitted students can visit to help them make their decision.
I was able to sign Up for decision day but have not heard anything about the status of my application. It is still an active application with no updates. Should I read anything into this?
@abbyrubycookie I think that’s a good sign - wait til next week when the office opens and I bet it will be an official acceptance soon enough.
When we log on to Decision Day, instead of letting us register, it kicks us back to the application status page. So I think being able to sign up is a good thing!
@STF4717 asian studies haha
Hii! I applied on 11/1, got my confirmation email 11/9 and still haven’t heard. I’m OOS and applied as a sociology major. UD is my top and it’s the only school i’m waiting on. I got into all of my other schools too. Have any sociology majors received their decision yet? Also has anyone heard back sooner than “8-12 weeks”?
@stl3817 a lot of people have heard back sooner than 8-12 weeks. My kiddo also applied on 11/1 and got confirmation and we still have no decision.
When you log into your admissions portal, do you still see your major listed? For some people, when their major is no longer listed, they wind up with an acceptance shortly thereafter.
Good luck!
