@J2727. I am not assuming anything although easy to do during these times. As I said, many schools are doing this. OSU was an example, South Carolina is another. Flagships who accept a decent amount of OOS students and internationals are doing this. It is early April and schools are doing whatever it takes to make sure they have enough students in the Fall. It is not a normal year and a lot of these 'borderline" kids will be getting in. Some schools will be scrambling and reaching out to students past the May deadline. For those OOS students out there, I can also see a scenario where a prospective student reaches out to a school in order to negotiate for a better Merit package. This is the year where students will have the upper hand.
