Ursinus College Class of 2015

<p>thought i'd start a thread for the class of 2015...i got my acceptance letter a few days ago for EA. I don't know whether I'll attend...who else got in and for sure is going? Stats please!</p>

<p>I went SAT optional but my GPA is about 3.3...I really don't know how I got accepted with it lol, perhaps because of my EC's!</p>

<p>I got my EA acceptance today :slight_smile: I’m awaiting results from other colleges before I make my decision, though. </p>

<p>I submitted my SAT scores (700 reading, 700 math, 780 writing) and have a 4.6 gpa weighted and 3.9 gpa unweighted.</p>

<p>Congrats! Same here…waiting for other colleges.
What other colleges are you waiting for?</p>

<p>im definitely going there in the fall
hope u all do too</p>

<p>jen did you apply EA? and what are your stats?</p>

<p>yeah i did early action</p>

<p>i got 680 math and 590 on reading and writing
1860 total
28 on ACT</p>

<p>anyone know if theres an “accepted students” weekend?</p>

<p>i emailed ursinus asking about an accepted students day, and they emailed me back saying that friday april 1st is capstone admitted students day.</p>

<p>i never visited this school so im excited to visit :slight_smile: i applied to 11 schools though so im not sure if ill pick ursinus</p>

<p>There’s a freshman overnight March 31st to April 1st. Like for incoming freshman. I’m going there next year! Should be exciting :)</p>

<p>In response to awrere, I’m waiting on Princeton, Johns Hopkins, Franklin & Marshall, Lafayette, Swarthmore, Stony Brook, Muhlenberg, and U Sciences. I’m already accepted to Stockton. </p>

<p>To what other schools did everyone else apply? And did anybody hear about scholarships yet? I get a letter in the mail today.</p>

<p>My S has also been accepted. The treatment we received from Ursinus before our visit, during it and afterward has been outstanding. Everyone we have dealt with has seemed legitimately concerned with our needs. We have enjoyed all of this but, like most of you. are awaiting decisions from other schools as well.</p>

<p>i got my scholarship letter yesterday in the mail. i got $13k =/ not too good but not too bad.
hoping to do the overnight stay! who else is staying overnight?</p>

<p>Hi! I got in a couple weeks ago, but I just got my scholarship letter today! I don’t know if I’m definitely going to attend, but I really want to go to the overnight stay, I feel like that’s the best way to really get a feel for a school, and plus it’d be loads of fun :)</p>

<p>do any of you know when we can sign up for the overnight visit for admitted students?</p>

<p>I’ll let you know tomorrow. :slight_smile: I’ll be definitely going to the overnight!</p>

<p>You can sign up on the site. Sign up for an overnight then in the extra comments box put capstone April 1st. They might have a button there for capstone because I know they were working on it but still</p>

<p>here’s the link to sign up for capstone admitted students day: [Open</a> House Events Ursinus College Visit](<a href=“http://www.ursinus.edu/netcommunity/page.aspx?pid=1919]Open”>http://www.ursinus.edu/netcommunity/page.aspx?pid=1919)</p>

<p>Thanks for posting the link. My daughter was accepted, but has never visited. She definitely wants to go to the open house.</p>

<p>Did anyone get their financial aid packages yet? I got mine today, and I’m sort of confused…They have two loans listed but with an asterisk next to them that says they’re “federal awards.” What does that mean?</p>

<p>And collegeboard.com says Ursinus meets about 83% of demonstrated need but my package seemed a little on the skimpy side considering my financial situation and the astronomical price of tuition. Is anyone else having the same problem?</p>

<p>I got offer a few days ago too. So excited!!I’m chinese and also wait other schools reply.I think it’s hard to choose a school between big university and LAC.
What’s your opinion?</p>
