University of Rhode Island EA for 2023

I just logged into my daughter’s portal (with permission :slightly_smiling_face) and noticed that it’s changed slightly - it no longer says “status: awaiting decision”. Not sure if this means that something is likely forthcoming?

yes, my daughter’s portal has the same change, keeping my fingers crossed!

They’ve also been posting a video each day from the admissions committee on Instagam. Yesterday’s was “how did you celebrate being accepted into URI?”

Also random - but I was refreshing my memory on the cost estimate (and praying for a little OOS merit) and noticed the NPC is down for maintenance now through 12/24/2022. If I recall correctly the numbers in it before were older prob from last year.

No news yet for my daughter! Hmmm

I guess I just assumed all EA news would come out at once.

Congrats! URI is in my D23’s top 2!

If you are OOS did you get merit?

Thank you I feel better hearing this! This is one of the schools D23 loves the most and we think/thought she had a pretty decent chance of admission.

I would not worry that you haven’t heard yet. It’s also one of my daughter’s top 2 and she has very good stats. But we’re also waiting on UMass (I thought she would get in, and I’m an alum) and several people just heard about that as well but we’re waiting. And we’re still waiting on Ithaca, which I thought would be a definite. I think the EAs seem to come in drips, which is torturous.

She’s OOS (10k merit aid), 3.9/4.3 GPA, artist, 4 APs, no scores. Great extracurriculars and (I think) strong essay. Communications. Good luck to all and hope you hear soon!

She’s in! D23 got in for Nursing! 3.9uw EMT cadet, Captain FH and other ECs! SO excited this was in her top 3!! Cograts and good luck to all!

Thanks for the info it helps a lot. My D has similar stats so that’s encouraging. Shes a Bio major.

We are waiting on UMASS too but they have always communicated they would release in waves.

Maybe our daughters will land in the same place!

So so happy for her!

Thank you! I think you may have posted on the Binghamton board - congrats if your daughter got in there! We are painfully waiting on that one. It’s a great (and very competitive) school.
