Admissions Discussion/Decisions - Class of 2024

For those who are still waiting for decision, OSU only offered one single admission since March 23. So be prepared for the worst and hope for the best to come tomorrow.

Is there a financial aid package that comes in the mail for all admitted students?

Dang I really wanted to get in, 6 months of waiting and it looks like the rest of us are either getting denied or thrown onto the waitlist tomorrow… Sucks.

Are we expecting decisions to come out late tonight or in the evening?

Just thought I’d let everyone know, I got a message from my counselor passing on the information sent from OSU.
It reads: “Decisions for the first year class are wrapping up and all students who do not have a decision yet from the Columbus campus will hear by next week. All merit scholarship offers have been made.”
I am so sad over this. It’s really hard to wait this long. The anxiety is building up. I, just like many other applicants, have been waiting for months now.

@joelmclarm Is this email old? Cause even I called OSU admissions yesterday and they said that decisions are going to come out by tonight.

@perflmp2002 My counselor said she received the email early this morning

Just called in and they said “the goal is for all admissions decisions to be out by the end of the month, which is today so by the end of the day”. Hopefully that’s true and good luck to all

I just received my decision. Check your portals.
