2024 Decision Thread/University of Delaware

Also, did anyone else get a notification from admissions for a mid-year report card or updated transcript for senior year grades?

Does anyone know if all decision notifications that have been received so far are for early action applicants or have RD students received responses as well?

My DS was accepted last week. He was supposed be EA but was late in linking his SRAR account so got moved to RD.

My OOS DS applied regular decision but submitted the application mid-November. He has heard nothing.

Does anybody know where you go in the portal to withdraw acceptance? My S said he is ready to take UDEL off the list and wants to free up the spot.

Following b/c I think we are in same boat.

I mistyped - my son hasn’t received a decision, but is thinking he will withdraw his application, based on the schools he’s heard from.

I applied RD (completed on 12/14) and received a decision on 1/10 so I guess it’s rolling to some extent? Because that’s less than a month and surprisingly quick

@HappyNJ @l2kids I think if you click the button to pay your deposit it may give you the option to decline? I know for the World Scholars program there’s an option to decline so I would assume it’s the same for admission. I don’t remember if there was the option or not when I paid my daughter’s deposit.

@Bech05 - Thank you, that worked! Good luck to all future Blue Hens. We really liked UDEL but it was much more expensive than other schools, even with the $10K merit.

yes, but in my deferral letter.

Today my portal said that my decision was released on January 24 instead of January 10 when it was actually released. Weird that it says two days in advance. I am waiting on honors, maybe this could be that?

Our financial aid was just released on the portal. Might take a look if you’re waiting on aid!

And hit refresh! I just looked at it again and there’s more aid there than there was 30 min ago!

I’d really just like for my DS to have a decision at this point! :slight_smile: I know he applied RD but it’s now 11 weeks and starting to get anxiety… (His GC couldn’t get stuff together in time for EA.) UDel is one of my son’s top 3…and still hasn’t heard from the other two schools either.
Congrats to everyone getting good FA packages!

@baseball15678 Son’s did that with the date and the 2-days ahead date was the day he got his Honors notification (a couple weeks ago). Good luck!

Where is that date showing? Profile last updated, or “decision released”?

@sunnyschool Thanks a lot for the info!! @sapmom It is under decision released.

@sapmom Wow that’s crazy that you saw an aid increase after about 30 minutes. What does the button say when the package is finalized?

There is nothing that indicates that it is finalized. The button on the financial portal page still says “Our records show we have received your FAFSA for the upcoming academic year. We are in process of finalizing all financial aid packages. Updated total costs and financial aid will be available here shortly. In the meantime, view your costs.”

I’ll probably give it a few days and then call next week if there are no more updates, to confirm that that is her finalized offer.
