USD Class of 2024

@UCmama Those invited to honors have been typically admitted on the first day of admissions decisions. Some outliers I’m sure however those not invited will most likely hear at a later date.

How long do we think we’ll have to wait if not admitted today?

Just admitted!
Female from NC, anthropology major
1380 SAT
3.8 UW GPA

Invited to apply for Honors College

@heavyduty445 It seems that decisions were released until about a month from now last year so any time in the next month. I know the time frame approach is pretty poor as opposed to one release like most schools.

@RidleyBCHS That’s rough on us, hopefully it comes out soon. @ctrexler20 Did you just get it? Or was it updated at 5:45pm along with the other folks?

The admitted tab just showed up! I checked earlier @heavyduty445 but it didn’t show up until now!

My son’s portal updated to “committee review” a few hours ago and then just now there was a new line that said “admitted”.

The short letter from the Director of Admissions says merit aid will be on the portal but we can’t find it…but it may not be there yet.

@ctrexler20 Oh gotcha thanks! Unlikely I’ll get it today, but I guess I’ll be patient :smiley:

@collegemomjam Try going to “Torero Hub” on the left side then “Applications & Tools” then “All applications & Tools” then “Financial Aid Awards” on the portal.

ppl still waiting, stats?
1340 sat
92.5 weighed 92.2 uw all honors + 5 aps
two subject tests, 790 &700

Admitted! 3.7 UW and 26 ACT

@8461student Was your decision updated at 5:45pm today? Or did it just update?

Thanks @RidleyBCHS. Just did what you said but there is no award there yet. We will call tomorrow. They may not have done that part yet or released it yet.

Has anyone else seen financial awards yet (merit)?

My stats contain:
-Strong ECs (VP of Club, Flag Football Runner-Up, Worked on a published humanities project which I presented at a city-wide event, Lots of Community Service including a trip to Camden, NJ)
-I’ve won multiple awards for my work in my school community, along with my academic success.
-I attend a private Jesuit High School ranked top 10 in the country for student-athletes.
-31 ACT (10 on the writing)
-I have a 4.5 YTD GPA weighted for senior year and I had a 4.2 weighted GPA last year. (Upward trend is present across all four years)
-I have a personal connection with the gentleman reading my apps (meaning, I stayed in constant contact with him and he visited my school where I was the only student in that meeting)

I would not say that I am a “top tier” student and I feel that everyone will end up where they are supposed to be, however, I have worked hard these past few years like every single student across the country has in his or her own way. I know that even if I am not admitted to USD someone deserving will take my place. I wish the best for everyone.

@collegemomjam Possibly, they have not updated yet. I know in the mail for sure kids receive their financial aid packages, merit included.

Just got accepted and invited to apply for Honors! My portal JUST updated at 6:20pm, so those still waiting today definitely still keep checking because the portal might change!

whooo hoooo I got in!

Congrats @heavyduty445 Well deserved. Thank you for your activity on the forum.

@RidleyBCHS Thanks, best of luck to you and others. A heads up - my application status still says “committee” review although I got admitted, so that might not be an accurate indicator which is strange…

GOT INNNNNN
