did anyone receive any notification about the honors program?
Deferred VBS, 1510. 3.7
deferred : 34 ACT and a 3.8 unweighted. had really good extracurriculars and essays too, really surprised that i didn’t get in. at least its nice to know that a lot of others are getting deferred too
Daughter was accepted Early Action today. We are blown away. She is an excellent student and is academically strong but was deferred to waiting list at Bryn Mawr last week so we never expected this to happen. Now I just have to hope a good FA package comes through for her. No idea what will happen there. Can’t say how ridiculously proud I am of her!
I should have mentioned this is for Liberal Arts for those keeping track
For anyone wondering why they were deferred, or more so worried that they were, the average stats for EA are way higher than Rd. I was accepted to the University of Pennsylvania last week (and will be attending bc binding and it’s my dream school, pending financial aid) but deferred from Villanova today. So don’t sweat it guys haha
