If your D doesn’t hear this weekend, she should call to see if there is a problem with her application. Last year, my D19 had issues at 2 schools (not tOSU) that delayed her decision. Her HS failed to send grades in time, and pushed her from EA to RD in one case, and missed the RD deadline in another case. But, if your D’s portal shows everything received, she should get a decision today.
Thanks Momzilla, her application has shown as complete for a while. I’ll encourage her to call if she doesn’t get a response. This is my first kid graduating, so I definitely appreciate the advice.
Do rolling admissions also come out in waves?
Accepted!
Out of state
Environment and Natural Resources
ACT 31
SAT 1440 superscore.

Good extracurriculars.
Do scholarships come out with acceptance or later? Did not receive anything and I am worried. Really hope I get a scholarship.
@Whats4dinnerMom My older son (OSU freshman) also applied to and was accepted at UVA. After he declined his offer of admission, I sent Dean J an email thanking her for being so helpful and caring. She’s definitely one of a kind.
Congrats ! Scholarships come out later.
Thank you!
@mamabear55 would like to say several things 1. Your daughter has a great GPA and a good ACT score 2. It’s anyone’s guess is the most accurate answer and depends on what degree she applied for too 3. We know many kids that were deferred in December (and we’re OOS too) 4. Check the numbers of acceptances from the website on Monday you might get an idea of how many acceptances are left 5. Deferred in my mind is a great indication that they want to accept the student but they need to review more applications first. 6. If this is her first choice school She may want to consider contacting an Admissions counselor to discuss her choice of major- it’s just a suggestion- not saying it will change anything!
I wish you the best!
Thank you so much!
@somemomma hope you hear great news soon
Congrat for the one who got accepted!. Did anyone get Morril Scholarship today? my son got accepted Nov 15, Received Maximus on 12/6 and got accepted to Honor on 12/6 too. still no words on Morill, we started to lose hope.
My application was completed on October 29th but I am still in evaluation. I had even called on November 1st and was told that my application was EA. Will they be releasing more decisions tonight or was my application lost?
Deferred
OOS: Maryland
ACT: 21
GPA: 3.6 W
Race: African American
Lots of ECs and 6 Ap’s
Track and Field captain, rotc, nhs, band
Anyone know what the process is Letter of continued interest or?
Also, it says deferred and will recieve rest of information by mail does that mean I have to wait until something is in the mail for my decision now or can still check portal
DD finally accepted tonight!!! Not sure of the time as she had a performance this evening and I’m not exactly sure when she checked the portal.
She applied on Aug 19th. OOS, Pre-Neuro Science, SAT 1390, WGPA 5.08, Summa Cum Laude, 6 AP classes, and Captain of her Dance Team and as may EC’s (NHL, NGHL, HOSA etc) as could be squeezed in with the competitive teams, like most of you on this blog!!!
This is my third daugher and I have to say the most stressful process I have ever been through. So happy this part is over, but the waiting begins for scholarships and the realization of whether or not this is possible.
For those of you who have been accepted, my heartfelt congratulations to you all!!!
For those still waiting, keep the faith and remember,
You is Kind,
You is Smart and
You is Important (The Help)
And remember, sometimes great things come from the most unexpected events!!!
This is something I have tried to center myself on the past few months…what is meant to be will be and don’t overlook the unexpected blessings you have elsewhere. Everyone is deserving and everyone will find their place and their home!!!
I will happily admit, I was the blubbering mama tonight who wanted this so badly for my child, like everyone else!!! But I was also preparing myself and accepting all of the great offers that came before OSU and finding a way to make the next best thing OK!!!
It says my application has been referred for secondary review, does anyone know how this process works? Will I know soon?
It will be interesting to see and compare the results of this final EA decision wave on the upcoming report published on 2/4. Maybe helps those of us with deferrals to decide whether it’s worth the wait or not.
My heart goes out to those who are disappointed. Know you are not alone and a wonderful, bright future awaits!
Here is the link to the weekly admissions report I was referencing earlier: https://oesar.osu.edu/admissions.aspx
Daughter applied early action on Nov. 1, and as of this morning STILL has not received a decision! Portal says still in evaluation. Friends at her school have already been notified over the last few months. This is so disappointing for a university of this size that you would expect has the resources to handle the applications it receives. Not a good look. Why apply early action if you don’t receive your decision by the date promised?
We are in-state and her brother is currently at OSU.
Hello I have a question. My son was admitted yesterday!!! Yay so excited!!! My question is he applied for nursing. He was put in “exploration program” Health professions exploration. What does that mean? Will he go into the nursing program for his BSN and still graduate in 2024?
