Still no word in Columbus, Ohio. I talked to admissions on Wednesday and she said we should receive the info that day. Still nothing. Not sure that it’s even his first choice any more. He’s gotten comfortable with another option and seems like a good fit.
@NotPeeCee Did your student get into other schools?
I think this is an issue of “yield protection”. Did student “show interest”? Visit, etc?
Anyone know when Financial Aid packages are coming?
Accepted from Ohio. No interview or visit, 1500 SAT, 34 ACT, 3.9 uw GPA. Does anyone know when we will get the email with our ID# and when our merit scholarships/financial aid packages are finalized? Thanks.
Still haven’t heard in lower AL. Out of town for Spring Break (also attending 2 Admit Student days from EA decisions) but have someone checking mail. Maybe they over looked it… will be home late Saturday; hoping for some news.
Waitlisted in IL. Stats: 34 ACT, 3.8/4.0 uw gpa, seven AP classes, National Merit Commended student, four year athlete, some leadership and some community involvement. Visited once. What are the chances of getting off the waitlist?
DS financial package came today in south Alabama. No merit aid offered, so will not attend. Got lots of money to Tulane, SMU, and Ole Miss so it will be one of those. Makes decision making a little easier!
Same here. It was pathetic offer and they stated they would not compare offers from other schools. No longer will I consider Wake.
No waitlist, denial or acceptance in Tucson, AZ. Any thoughts are welcome…?
@desert1 I would call admissions on Monday morning and ask for it over the phone. The student must call as they won’t release to parents or others. Good Luck!
My D had already chosen Michigan over Wake but the letter came through today. They offered her some $1600 in merit based award. That’s just such a jive offer. Had we not already chosen a different school that sort of offer would have definitely soured us to the point of possibly considering other options.
No news in Oregon today…again.
He will call Monday. Thanks!
finally received letter in lower Alabama… D18 was waitlisted. ACT 33, 11th/351, 4.46 wtdGPA, IB Student with Chemistry as science HL which she also plans to major in; Natl Merit Commended, 6 year Varsity Swim Team - Senior Captain, President of Service Club and Environmental Club, great LoRs and tons of volunteer work on own and through church youth group. Honestly so very surprised, she showed tons of interest-both in a tour last year and then and interview this past Fall; her amazing interviewer told her Wake loves IB students because they know they can handle the work load. She worked very hard on her application. It’s disappointing, however she has her top choices and will be very OK considering she has been accepted to Vanderbilt, UVA, University of Richmond, College of William & Mary, and Furman… in addition to four in-state schools. She will decline to be on the Wake waitlist. Congrats to all who were accepted! Wake is such a great school!
I live in NYC and I received my package today in a small white envelope.@sparkykoolkat
anybody going to the MOSAIC event on the 12th, please PM me.
How did you learn you were a Presidential Scholarship semifinalist? My son was a finalist, went for audition, got accepted to Wake but has not heard anything more about it so we wondered if award recipients have already been decided and notified. Thanks!
@rossie03 ^^^^
That’s so weird… I live in NY and didn’t get anything throughout the week… I heard someone saying that we will get an update/email on Sunday? Is that true?
We are still waiting in Madison, WI. This is very frustrating. I think she will accept Tulane.
