@channingc 3.8 and 1240 not the best compared to the people on this thread but i thought they were okay
@rocknix That’s basically what I have! 3.8 GPA, 26 ACT. I also interviewed, I’m Catholic, minority, and have tons of extra-curriculars. I’m trying not to get discouraged, but USD is my top choice! Hoping they will release more soon.
I’ve also gotten into some schools that are more competitive, wondering if I should be worried at this point?
@channingc also catholic, my top choice as well! Trying hard not to get discouraged but everyone at my school has heard back from somewhere so it just sucks:(
@channingc. May I ask if you were asked to interview or did you ask them for an interview. Thx
does anybody know when we find out what type of merit aid we received??
Just checked my portal and found that I am admitted! So excited!!!
Hey, I just got in because I happened to be on my portal and it changed. USD was not a reach for me, but I did not hear back right away since I had plenty of friends that got in 2 weeks ago. BEst of luck
asking to the people that got admitted, if i do get accepted then there is going to be a separate tab called admitted to click on?
Sorry you are getting discouraged. My son was admitted, and when you login to mySanDiego page, on the left click the admissions tab, this will drop down the following: Announcements, Applicant, Admitted. When you click admitted it will give you your admitted information. We received a packet in the mail a couple days later. I wish you luck! Also, U of Portland seems like a nice campus and is still accepting applications until March 20. I think Seattle University might also take late applications. Just a thought, in the event you are feeling like you don’t have enough options to pick from.
Congrats! When you go to the admitted tab of your mySanDiego there is a section in the top-middle of the page called financial aide. Click that with the correct year. Then when the window opens click on the tab called award summary and this should list your merit award. We received a packet in the mail a couple days later which also explains the award. The federal aide information came later.
@parentEngineer thank you!
I haven’t heard of anyone getting denied yet. I know admission says they don’t come out in any specific order but it seems everyone so far that’s heard has been admitted. I’m nervously but optimistically still seeing mine say complete ready for review.
I wouldn’t be nervous yet. This school is definitely a safety for me as I’ve gotten into Tulane and Cal Poly already and I still have “complete- ready for review” but I’m not worried
Oh congrats and thanks so much. I feel better!
I was admitted today. I have a 4.5 weighted GPA and a 4.0 unweighted GPA and a 1350 sat. But the website doesn’t say if I have a scholarship or not. My status still says "under committee review."I don’t know if there is still a chance for a merit scholarship. That what I’m hoping. I really need money if I would go to this school. What does the “under committee review mean.”
yes
@rileymanj10 how were you notified that you were admitted if you still have the “committee review” status under the portal? I have the same thing but haven’t been notified yet so I’m curious.
I was admitted in the first wave and mine still says committee review. I’m guessing this means that it doesn’t go away after you are admitted. I know that some people in the first wave had committee review before they were given their results and some did not. It didn’t seem to make a difference since I did not.
I also got the presidential scholarship of 18k. The scholarship was added to my admitted page the day after I got in.
