Clemson Admissions - Class of 2023 DISCUSSION

anyone else get emails?

Just received my acceptance in the mail in West Virginia. Both hacks worked, also got my first major choice of Microbiology (Biomedicine). Good luck to all… GOOO TIGERS!

Congrats to all accepted!! Looks like today is the day many will be hearing. Stressing because DS hasn’t received an email, and our mail arrives late - sometimes after 6pm.

I got my packet a couple days ago and I still haven’t got a email though?

@RMSqueencat - was it your son who applied for audio technology? Think he’ll hear today?

I posted the info on the DECISIONS ONLY thread, but to discuss here:

Daughter denied. Nursing. 1290 SAT. Applied with GPA (UW/W) 3.6/4.1. Great rigor and outstanding extras. OOS white female.

Though various websites estimated her to have a 70-75% chance of general acceptance, nursing at any school is ultra-competitive. We’re not surprised by the decision as it’s no secret that Clemson relies mainly on stats (class rank, rigor, GPA and SAT.) We were told by Clemson that their nursing students’ SAT averages 1300, same for both in and OOS. Clemson only takes about 57 OOS nursing students.

In my daughter’s case, her rigor, GPA and SAT are right where they needed to be, but her class rank is lower because she goes to a very competitive high school with a lot of smart kids. About 95% go to college and standardized test scores are way above national and state averages there. So, when she applied, she was only ranked in the top third of her class. Ironically, with her stellar first semester, she is now top 25%. Mid-year GPA moved to 3.7/4.3.

And sadly, she really shines in her recommendations and extra-curriculars, which are not as important to Clemson.

She really loved Clemson, but she was accepted to six other direct-admit nursing programs and is waiting to hear from one more. I think some of her other options will be better choices for her personally. And so, we move on. :slight_smile:

@Britmom5 Yes, my son applied to Audio Technology. Hoping he’ll hear today as many others have. One way or another, it will be nice to finally exhale.

Nothing in central OH

My daughter Offered summer admission only. Very confusing when she was a direct admit to USC Darla Moore business school, IU Kelley business school and Miami U Farmer school of business and Alabama Culverhouse college of business. She really likes Clemson and we don’t want to discourage her but this just seems like a bit of an out of state money grab. Anyone have any info regarding summer admission and is it worth the added expense and her time?

Son received acceptance letter today in upstate South Carolina, directly south of Charlotte, NC. Accepted into Architecture (his first choice) posted Stats in decision thread.

Nothing in CT. I don’t understand how not every letter has been delivered yet. They need to step up their game. By now everything should be online

Just curious…when you are offered Summer admissions is it a white envelope or does it seem like you are Tiger Bound with a big packet?

It is same large tiger bound packet

Tough choice. Still waiting and none of the hacks worked so expecting a rejection/wait list. Saw a few people that got in and hacks didn’t work so holding out the tiniest amount of hope.

@hicksychicks did you try the hacks at all or just wait for the USPS for the decision?

@RMSqueencat One of my S19s has received his big envelope for Architecture, several days ago, but the other (who applied for AudioTechnology also) has not heard either way, even in today’s mail.

@Britmom5 Did your son interview at Brooks? My DS interviewed on 1/30. We were told that applicants who interviewed/auditioned by 2/8 would receive “priority decision.” Maybe those decision letters were sent in the last batch they apparently released yesterday (according to an earlier post on this thread.) So might have to wait even longer!! His other choice is Comp Sci. I really hope he gets into one of those programs. Both highly competitive.

Finally got the packet in MD!!

Got the letter in the mail today! Relieved to get the letter even though the hacks worked on February 5th.

@Pumpkinlily just waited and received packet
