The woman on the phone AND the girl on the online chat told me that admissions are rolling and that people start hearing as early as November. However in other places I've heard we have to wait till December.

When do decisions start coming out?

^ I was wondering the same thing...

According to College Board, they start sending out letters December 5th.

Oh jeeze! Well, my "senior calendar" says the 5th, but when I got to their overview of OSU, it says the 1st of December. So either way, it'll be in December.

I was told over the phone that the earliest date admissions decisions will be available is December 1.

Last year my daughter received her admissions in very early December.
Someone from admissions called her to let her know she was admitted.
Nice touch!!

Someone we know just got his notification of admission today. So maybe it depends some on how early you applied now. Last year I got my e-mail about 3 weeks after I sent my app, it was around the second week of December.

My son learned he was admitted yesterday (online status indicated "Admitted")...he was overwhelmed with happiness and even got a little teary! His application was complete with all necessary components in mid-September. We were surprised, too, that the decision was released prior to December 1!

My daughter applied in mid-August and her status is still under evaluation. Her package wasn't complete until late September. It would be interesting to understand the processing queue order. Hopefully, we'll all hear something on the 5th. Although it would be nice to hear something earlier.

Same here, I everything was completed mid to late sept 17,18,19 somewhere in there and mine still says evaluation. However I am skeptical ill make it to columbus seeing as how im going for first year engineering and my test scores are a little below avg. math (28 or 29) comp (25). I am really anxious, i check it like 5 times a day!!!!!

Ohh, if you want to can you guys post your indicated major and stats. Nothing major just gpa and test scores and such for reassurance or anxiety for the rest of us.

My status on the web says "acceptance" since Wednesday. I don't know if it means I'm admitted.
I sent all of my documents on Oct. 30, so it was earlier than I expected.
I'm Ohio resident, 29 ACT and uw GPA around 3.6. I also recieved three 5's and one 4 on my AP tests.

Maybe Ohio residents hear back earlier than out of state residents? I am from NY and I havent heard yet

jbraines: my D is OOS (NY) and as I wrote above, heard very early December 2008. I think it depends on when you apply.

Good luck!

My son's application status changed to "Evaluation" today, is it the last stage before decision come out?

SquattingDog10

I assume so... mine still says evaluation. Im not sure what would come after evaluation if it wasnt a decision of some sort.

When did you apply?
