USD Class of 2024

Inside source. You will hear soon. I would still go though, it will still be a good event, just not overnight.

I will add though that everything is up to the college, they may decide to allow it if the situation changes next week, or they may cancel entirely if it gets worse. But for now, it will be an extended day visit

USD’s admission notification approach is ineffective. By releasing the decisions slowly, our enthusiasm has cooled and we’re focused on other opportunities. I suspect this method hurts their yield. One or two days would be one thing, but it’s been about two weeks since the first group was notified. What gives?

USD just emailed me about the merit overnight. It is now just Monday the 16th from 2:15-5:00. No overnight component or sitting in on a class. You also must email them back to confirm that you will still be attending

One of my friends got rejected yesterday :frowning: did anyone else hear anything?

One of my daughters friends was declined yesterday evening as well. Still no news for my daughter.

@westcoastgal1 I’m sorry to hear your friend was rejected. We still have not heard anything regarding my son’s application. Good luck to you.

@PolkaDotMomma I’m curious, do you know if they notified your daughter’s friend via email, regular mail, or did she find out by logging into her portal?

Does anyone know if they sent out all the rejections on the same day in the past years? Or do rejections rollout as well?

I’m also interested to hear how they were notified of the rejection. I believe in the past USD left portals unchanged but sent snail mail later in March/April which to me seemed awful.

I also seem to remember reading in last year’s threads that rejections came in the mail. Portal did not change. Is that this year’s experience?

I had nothing in my mail and no portal change either.

My friend got rejected last week. She got an e-mail last Tuesday around 4pm EST

@purpler I completely agree! So much better to release all decisions at once.

Daughters friend that was declined last night received an email. Still crickets for the rest of us…

USD has always been my D’s first choice. Still no change to the status and nothing in email / snail mail. Remaining positive!

I just got off the phone. Campus closing will not affect decisions as of now so all will be released by the 31st.

friend emailed informing him of his denial yesterday

Checked my spam box of my email for school which I used to apply with. Nothing.

Did everyone get the campus tour/coronavirus update? It said “regretfully, we are unable to welcome you to campus”… maybe I’m looking too far into it but it sounds like good news? Who knows

“good news” as in they can’t welcome you to campus as in a hint you’ve been admitted
