My daughter is waitlisted too. Haven’t yet seen anyone who saw an early waitlist decision that then went away get accepted or rejected so it seems that was the official decision.
I don’t have a decision either I tried calling and only got the voicemail too
@mathnerd1 @fingerscrossed40 @GaelRacer
Admissions notifications to International applicants will sometimes state that their rejection was due to financial need. Lehigh is upfront about the very limited financial aid it has available for international students.
Congrats to the new incoming class. My daughter graduated last year (Accounting and Finance) and loved her four years there.
Double post - sorry
So disappointed Lehigh is so glitchy this year. Do I really have to wait the whole weekend to find out?
@greneandh I may be wrong, but I think Lehigh is need-blind only for US and Canadian applicants.
Just ugh.
It’s need blind for maybe just domestic students. Because my update says the same thing.

International applicant from Pakistan. 1530 SAT1, straight As in O and A levels (4.0 GPA), Student Body President, MUNs, community service programs, school football team.
Rejected due to financial aid.
Are any accepted students able to see their Financial Aid?
@fingerscrossed40 the same thing happened for RD at BU this year and it was a Saturday morning but everyone that had the problem got their decisions in a couple hours
waitlisted. I am not sure whether my son had the early warning message as he was at work. So, who is accepting place on waitlist?
@GaelRacer @MrElonMusk @fingerscrossed40
YES I am so freaking pissed at the moment and here is what I read. FYI this isn’t my first rejection.
The Committee on Admission has completed a review of all applications of international students requesting financial aid. We were impressed with your academic credentials, however, we are unable to offer you admission due to the high demand for international financial aid. An increase in applications forced us to make difficult choices in the Regular Decision pool. We wish you success in your future academic career.
Sincerely,
Bruce Bunnick
Interim Vice Provost of Admissions and Financial Aid
My son checked his portal right before boarding a long flight. He said it had not been updated at all around 4:45. It may be awhile before we find out.
No decision for me either
@sunflowerlover how strange. I was accepted at BU but my decision was there right away. I feel like so many schools have had glitches this year. Oh well I will just have to wait.
laughing because my portal still hasn’t been updated HAHAHAHAH wow lehigh, step up your game
Refreshed like crazy. Still nothing. Twitter says to call Monday morning? Students are in class, I wonder how they are supposed to do that?
The server is probably just slammed. I suggest logging off for 10 or 15 minutes and then logging back on.
I suspect that the decisions will appear.
@Much2learn I hope so! I’m interested to see what happens though because there are a TON of people on Twitter with this issue
