I was rejected from the business school. My naviance showed that I was in the range to be at least waitlisted or accepted. A record number of students from my school (50!!) applied, so maybe this paid a role. Good luck everyone!

Villanova is one of his top choices, but will come down to $, as he could go to UMass Amherst for about $20K/yr before loans.

Can you get deferred, but still be a finalist for the presidential scholarship?
Is that possible :sob:?

Hard to imagine that happening, right? The scholarship is far more selective than school admission.
