Interesting…this is my 3rd to apply to MU in 4 years. The other two applied for the Harrison/Honors as well. They got their Honors acceptance before Christmas, but never got a packet from the general admit office until the Feb or March date. S just got admitted to Honors and got the general admit letter/packet Christmas Eve. Two years ago D2 was given unexpected early admit letters to LACs. They explained that they were sure she was to be admitted so why make her wait. This, along with an early submit of the application, must have been why laxforlife was sent a letter even though no honors application was completed. They are trying not to lose a good student to a school with rolling admissions.

My son’s packet did not include any financial information. I saw on another thread that someone got a separate letter in their packet with financial information. My son did not get that. We don’t expect anything except the academic scholarship as listed on their website. Did anyone else get financial information in their packet?

S’s stats:

GPA UW - 3.94
ACT - 29
Class President 4 years
Vice president student council
Captain of soccer team 3 years/district player first team
Track 3 years, ran at regionals 3 years, state participate one year, - will participate in track again this spring.

Congrats to all.
