•University of Rochester RD Class of 2020•

No decision yet. My application has been in Step 4 for a while. I’m so worried I will be rejected. I wonder when the next round of decisions will be released??

Stalled out here, too, and also seeing the Check Back in 12 Hours message.

My D saw a fORM saying check here is sending a deposit, but obviously they are having a major glitch. Got the “Check back in 12 hours” notice last night and this morning. How ridiculous.

I got in yesterday! I received the email saying my decision was posted and when i logged onto my roc there was a letter welcoming me to the class of 2020 :slight_smile: I applied before Dec. 1st for GEAR

This is just a wild guess, but I think maybe decisions will be released every Friday. For at least the last two years, the last batch of decisions was released on the third Friday of March (this year that’s the 18th), and the first major RD batch this year was also a Friday so…

if i didn’t receive an email last night, is it still possible that my decision will be posted when the site is fixed?

Got in after all!
Unfortunately, it’s too expensive for my family to afford

Does anyone know if they include merit awards with the decision?

@lindagaf, I read on their website recently that shortly after you get your decision, the financial aid notification will come.

If anyone is wondering, we just logged in to MyROC, even though it still says check back in 12 hours. Try it and just wait a bit. Her decision came up, she has been accepted and didn’t apply to any special program.She submitted about a week before the deadline. Anyway, try logging in. BTW, they personalize the letter, but we could only see the letter on the ipad. It wouldn’t load on the desktop. Thanks @Winky1 for letting me know re merit aid notification.

You are welcome, @Lindagaf - congratulations to your daughter! My son is still waiting. Is on Step 3 …

So happy that I got in!! Question: for those of you that applied for a special program (I applied o the dual degree nursing program), did your accordance letter specifically say that you got into that program, or just that you were accepted into the university of Rochester? thanks!

My application is still on step 3! :confused:

was not expecting a decision this early and i literally applied on jan 5 omg but yay first acceptance !! love how they personalized the acceptance letter and mentioned my common app essay. i didn’t apply to any special programs

I googled renaissance and global scholarship to learn more about it and the first thing that came up said “congratulations! U of R is pleased to invite you to apply…” and it let me register. However, I never got an email saying this, and I couldn’t find it anywhere on my account either. Those that were asked to apply, did you receive an email? Anyone else experience this? Could this just be a computer glitch?

Just called the admission office and got told that decisions come out in batch and not in any order at all, not even based on when you submitted your app. Ugh

Also um, they said if you’re still in step 1,2,3 or 4. Don’t fret. Decisions will continue coming out till April 1st. Just pray you’re in an earlier batch and wait for that e-mail from them telling you to check your decision.

Thank you. Not that I’m fretting or anything.

Thank you so much for sharing this information, @iocbobby10. It makes me feel better about my son’s application.

Oh man after having to email the admissions people because somehow my MyROC account said that I hadn’t even started an application, I found that I accidently made two accounts lol. I guess that is what i get for not actually ever checking my application status lol. But accepted! And I loved the personal touch they made on the letters! :slight_smile:
