2017 Lehigh RD Applicants' Discussion Thread

<p>Scared to death. Found out that a part of my supplement got cut off from Commonapp…oh joy.</p>

<p>@lehigh2017, did decisions go up online the same day they came in the mail?</p>

<p>SO EXCITED. cchlloe, I’m pretty sure ED people got their letters a few days after the decisions went up online</p>

<p>I’m still waiting on 2 more schools. Lehigh is my only other viable option. I’m pretty sure I have no chance at the other one. ;-;</p>

<p>Cchlloe -</p>

<p>EdwardWitten is right, the letters came maybe 3 days after the decisions were posted online. The decision online was posted before they told us anything about letters being sent out (it was actually quite the surprise to get our acceptance online at that time). I would be shocked if you don’t find out tomorrow if you are accepted or not - be it online or through a letter in the mail.</p>

<p>cchlloe, I received my letter a week after it was posted online! Also, for some odd reason, they didn’t email us when the decisions were posted, I relied on CC and my friends who had applied. I checked mine at 6:00 and it was up!</p>

<p>^^^ am or pm?</p>

<p>Does anyone knowbif decisions are released online at midnight?</p>

<p>@rubi32, apparently not, if by midnight you mean midnight on east coast.</p>

<p>Just checked and they’re not online. Some point tomorrow they hopefully will be!</p>

<p>I was accepted via the Diversity Life Weekend last week. Don’t know why, because I am completely white, I guess it has to do with being from Hawaii, or that I grew up in Micronesia.
SAT: 1970
ACT: 30
GPA: 3.9 unweighted, 4.1 weighted
5 APs, and Stanford online EPGY Calculus BC class
Rank: 1/63
~250 community service hours
A lot of ECs: Varsity basketball (captain), Japanese NHS (treasurer), NHS member, American Chemical Society member, Interact (Rotary) Club member, a lot of others
Hook: Hawaii, grew up in Federated States of Micronesia (third world country made up of many islands in the Pacific)</p>

<p>Hopefully I can attend the DLife Weekend. And a nice financial aid package would really up the school on my list.</p>

<p>Any idea what time the decisions will be posted? I just checked and they haven’t been posted yet.</p>

<p>I believe the last few years they have been posted in the afternoon.</p>

<p>afternoon east coast time?</p>

<p>Edward how did you know i was from nj? and i think you’re right about that because I know from my brother that Lehigh has a HUGE NJ student body</p>

<p>I got an email from a Lehigh current student last night. The email said I got accepted. But I called the admission this morning, they said they haven’t make any decisions yet. Is that wired?</p>

<p>Theyll probably be posted around 5 east coast time, when they close, so the admissions office doesnt have to deal with angry students/parents today.</p>

<p>I called them this morning, they said they will post things at the end of the week.</p>

<p>Called admissions to confirm: “Letters will be mailed out at the end of the week and decisions will be posted in the portal late Friday afternoon” I think they’re doing it that way so that they have the weekend off before they have to deal with complaining parents, and they figure most people will let it go over the weekend. It’s kind of BS because for the past 2 years they’ve posted it a full week earlier. If they wanted to do that they should have posted decisions this past Friday…</p>

<p>we have to wait another five days?!?!?</p>
