•University of Rochester RD Class of 2020•

@msdfan Sure! 3.77 GPA, 35 ACT (one sitting), 3 SAT Subjects (800 Math II, 800 Chinese w/ Listening, 750 Chemistry). I also have 6 APs (two this year) and pretty heavy course loads.

@Winky1 Thanks! :slight_smile: I hope your son gets into a school he loves too!

@sungjong, let me know where you wind up – I am rooting for you!

I GOT IN!

I got accepted as well!

SAT: 1900
GPA: 3.75
Mexican with US citizenship
Lots of ECs and work experience, compelling essay but nothing out of this world. I guess thats why my acceptance letter wasnt that personalized… Who cares! Im in haha.

@sungjong u should have been accepted. I am so sorry about it . i just hope you will get accepted to an even better college. My best wishes to you!

I was awarded 13k in merit. Is that good?

@Lukenod Yes, that’s good, but if you applied for need-based aid keep in mind that the package might include a high amount in loans or the family contribution might be calculated higher than expected.

If your family is full pay, that reduces cost to about 54k, which could be very bad or only a minor expense depending on income.

@msdfan don’t worry about it! i’m a bit bummed out about it since it’s increasing my anxiety for other schools’ decisions, but i’ll hopefully end up somewhere i love! thanks :slight_smile:

I was rewarded a 17k merit scholarship.

I honestly cannot believe that they haven’t sent me the decision yet

Still on step 4…

I hope they are still sending out some acceptance letters!!

I never did my IDOC so my financial aid package is coming super late

Alhamdulillah! Just got accepted!!! Personalized letter! Thank you for the wishes! Best of luck to the other applicants! I hope you guys get accepted too! :slight_smile:

OH MY GOD I GOT IN

I am in . Thanks God

@sungjong Sorry but I dont understand why you would ever consider Rochester a safety school… I guess your overconfidence didnt pay off after all :confused:

Agreed with the above, a lot of people on this site could do with a reminder that a school with an acceptance rate below 30% should not be a safety.

@isl4ndsurf3r lmaoo i’ve gotten into schools i would’ve gone to a thousand times over rochester already, so it’s not like i really care that much anymore. of course i respect those who got into rochester and are attending happily, but it doesn’t seem like you’re in a place to tell me that

@isl4ndsurf3r also, i’ve seen a lot of your posts on the other forums. it seems like you’re just a bitter little bitch
