Villanova - Class of 2025 - Early Action

He explained that Villanova was still his top choice and he gave a few reasons why he would benefit from attending Villanova and a few reasons why Villanova would benefit from accepting him.

Keep it short and sweet.

We have received your application for the Honors Program. Check back here in early February for updates on your status with the program.

My son was deferred EA. I donā€™t believe his mid-year grades have been sent yetā€¦ is it too late?

I hope not. Our semester ended Jan 29 with grades published Feb 5. HS said they automatically send grades everywhere you apply. Nothing has shown up so far and now school is closed for a week. Lucky if they get there by end of Feb.

If you have your grades for sure upload them on your portal. I would send an email to your admission rep explaining whatā€™s going on. I emailed mine with questions, they are really helpful.

Thanks! Weā€™re also having trouble logging to the portalā€¦ did the deferral letter specify a decision date?

Will do. Thanks!

I self reported the mid-year grades until the counselor sent the official report this past Tuesday. You can do this in the application portal. Right after my son got an email from his counselor saying he sent them, an email came in from Villanova stating the application was complete and being reviewed.

Did anyone who was accepted receive merit aid in their acceptance letter?

I was deferred EA as a business major - would changing my intended major to liberal arts/arts and sciences related increase my chances at getting in? Or does it not really make a difference? Itā€™s one of my tops, so I want to make sure Iā€™m putting my best foot forward

Last night I attended the parent to parent panel for accepted students. This questions was asked by many parents in the Q&A box. It was eventually answered ā€“ the only merit scholarships being given are the ones you could apply for.

Per the ā€œparent to parentā€ panel online last night, honors program decisions will be out by early March at the latest.

Is there a cap off on the amount of rec letters that can be sent in? My daughter who got deferred EA already has a guidance counselor, teacher, and alumni rec on her file. Would it be a good idea to request if we can add another one to her file? Also, is anyone experiencing a delay in mid-year grades being sent in from the school? Will this disadvantage my daughter?

I canā€™t answer your question on the rec letters but I can say Villanova was very lenient with me on submission dates that were not up to me. I had a few things come in late from my school for EA and still got accepted

It will be the middle of March before they let us know about Honors.

I know this is an EA thread but thought Iā€™d ask anyway since I canā€™t find a Villanova ED2 threadā€¦ does anyone know when ED2 decisions will be released? I know the website says by March 1st but wondering if it could be sooner. TIA
