University of Rochester Class of 2021 Regular Decision Discussion

Anyone know historically how much time it takes between each wave of decisions?
I read somewhere anywhere between 4-7 days between a wave.

Sorry about your rejection @rahul2907 . You must be devastated. I hope you get accepted into another college.
Everyone else who haven’t received their decision yet, Rahul’s bad news could be good news for. I theorize UoR sends rejection and waitlist notifications first. Accepted candidates are notified later.

I got waitlisted.

New SAT score: 1530
Reading/Writing: 740
Math: 790
Essay: 23

SAT subject tests
Math: 800
Physics: 800

I’m an international applicant, and I submitted predicted A level grades (all As).

@upsidedownn I’m sry about the waitlist. But you have excellent stats. I know an international student who got rejected from many competitive colleges but accepted to Harvard. So maybe something great is waiting for you too. All the best. :slight_smile:

Those that got decisions, what time did you get the email?

It appeared to be sometime around 3:30-4 based on posts @drowning2021

Anyone receive any acceptance mails yet? Especially someone who’s an International applicant.

Received an email from financial aid today requesting additional information. Does this have any bearing on admisson? FA is completely separate from admissions at most other schools as far as I know. Wondering if URochester is the same.

@CalmConquistador I don’t think so, I applied ED and the financial aid contacted me also asking about some extra stuff. but I didn’t get admitted. nor rejected.

Hey Guys :slight_smile: !
Firstly, “Best of Luck” to eveyone in the admission process.
Secondly, perhaps it’s a matter of how soon you submitted your application. Yes, 3000 of us may be on step 4 but what if the process shifts to first come, first serve when decisions are released ,like the first to submit are the first to receive their admission decision.

I’m pretty sure they released rejections and wautlists first because those are easier to give out and probably were established a while back, acceptances hopefully will come this week.

My son applied on September 13th regular decision. Has been on step four since Thanksgiving. No decision received. FYI

Same. I applied in October for regular decision and I’ve been on step four for quite a while.

step 5 now, I guess we will get the decision tomorrow.

DECISION MADE

still on step 4

What is step 5?

Step 5 is decision! Accepted :slight_smile:
Although no mention of GEAR program in my letter.

AGH IM DYING HERE WAITING FOR A DECISION!!

CONGRATS THO!!
