Brandeis RD 2023

does anyone here know anything about the art department? I am undecided but I may lean to art. My other option is University of Richmond, so i want to choose the school with the most options I can choose from but also the one with the strongest art department for majors and minors

My son was waitlisted from Brandeis. He decided he didn’t want to wait till after May 1, and didn’t submit to continue. Today he got an email encouraging him to please continue. Is this customary? I know he had the stats to get in. This was 1 of 2 schools he was waitlisted, & the only 2 we didn’t get to visit due to time & location (both school s in Mass). His stats are 95 unweit=ghted, 103 weighted,
12 ap, 5 Cl, NMF, club leadership in 2 a a few clubs. also AP scholar a& will receive a capstone diploma.

@lovemycats - looks like our students applied to some of the same schools (I just read one of your posts on Bing!) I think they may continue to correspond even after a student has declined their spot. My son was offered Spring admission but wants to start this fall, so he sent them an email declining, but still received an email a couple of days ago reminding him to register by May 1st.

Mine still has two more schools to revisit and then he needs to make a decision. Can’t wait for this to be over!

@familyfromLI oh I’m so with you on wanting this over.
It has been a very long process. We are going to 1 more
School then hopefully decions. I think he is leaning with
Binghamton. What about you.

@lovemycats - I’ve no idea as my son plays his cards very close to his chest! He attended the FRI presentation at Bing this past weekend and so now with these last 2 admitted student events this weekend, I’m hoping to have a final decision. He’d better not wait til April 30th!

@familyfromLI I fully understand that. It’s like pulling teeth
To get my sons thoughts. Mine is in the Scholars program
At Binghamton. It looks very good for him, but not sure he’ll
Do it. FRI also sounds very good.

@lovemycats - Let’s hope for both our sakes we get this over with painlessly and FAST :slight_smile:

Congrats to all who were accepted! My S is at Brandeis and is very happy. I have to admit that, in fall of Senior year, I never would have guessed that he would end up there. I highly recommend a revisit day this Spring. Meeting current students and professors won him over.
