International gang waiting desperately for the portal update ??
@PAdude Congrats on your Trustees Scholarship. I had one as well, back in the day. Why are you disappointed? What were you hoping for and where would you go instead? My kid is in, but we have to see if we can make the numbers work. It would be tough financially, but I also know that Lehigh delivers a rigorous education and a great RoI.
Is the portal updated for anyone?
Nothing for me yet, I want to make sure my admission decision was real so I’m waiting for it to update. ^^’
Haven’t gotten anything yet.
I feel so bad for anyone who did not get a package yet…it does not mean that it won’t come tomorrow.
I cannot understand why Lehigh chose this type of process…but it causes a lot of unnecessary anxiety.
Good luck to everyone tomorrow.
I was so happy to get in, but Lehigh is the only school that did not offer me merit or aid…so can’t justify or afford 74k/year. So upset, I was hoping for something similar to U of R and Case
@1stTimeThruMom , thank you. And as I said we are thankful. As of know based on cost differential will probably be going to Harvard. Honestly was were hoping for the full tuition trustee scholarship. It’s really why applied to Lehigh. We are local to Lehigh and showed a lot of interest in the school, was selected for and attended the summer engineering institute. Even one the week long competition for the camp. While being dual enrolled in high school locally took two regular semester classes at Lehigh both along side sophomores and juniors in the university, both high level mathematics classes and in each coarse worked hard and recieved a 100 and 98 % in the classes, achieving highest grade in class on both occasions as a high school senior. With the demonstrated interest, being a local kid and area high school valedictorian I was.hoping to find a full scholarship to the school. If I had I had all intentions to turn down Harvard to stay local. I hope this doesn’t sound unappreciative because it’s not my intent. I just invested alot of time and felt I proved myself and was hoping for a different outcome.
Received a package from Lafayette today but not Lehigh, which makes me really nervous. Good luck to everyone who hasn’t gotten news yet, and ofc congrats to everyone who got in!!
Is anyone else super nervous because I haven’t received any mail nor has my portal changed whatsoever
I am
Yup
Extremely
@PAdude Congratulations on your success! I will DM you.
I also got this on my financial aid! It said i self-reported $2,500 for fall and spring when I didn’t put anything on the form I submitted for outside scholarships. Very strange.
Others in town got acceptances in the mail yesterday. No good news in my mail again today. I guess that is as close to a rejection as there currently is from Lehigh. Bummed. Good luck to all.
Same here. Not feeling too confident lol
This sucks
I don’t get why they are doing it like this. very unfair to those who are waiting and left hanging.
did anyone try emailing admissions?
