Hello all -
OOS DS 24 deferred in from January EA#2 to RD?.. with a decision expected by end of March…
Fischer school of business. OSU is his first choice and dream school… having spent a few weeks on campus last summer for Buckeye Pre College… just wondering if anyone has experience with the RD announcement dates…16 and 22 March
My DS24 was deferred in January as well. I got the impression from the posts then that deferred kids heard after both of the RD decision dates at the very end of March. Did you send anything in to OSU? I’m trying to get my son to call or e-mail to see if they would like his mid-year grades or a LOCI.
nope, have not heard anything to the contrary… end of March is what my son is telling me now…
Just a LOCI email to local admissions officer…appears the HS has sent out mid semester grades to the other deferred schools…something showing up on a few portals.
Good luck!
Best of luck all!
Today is RD decision day right?
It looks like they have two dates listed on their website 2/16 or 3/15. Not sure how that works.
i just got a set up buckeye mail thing but i was deferred ea on jan19. i wont be getting any update from osu today right ?
Early action applicants said they got the set up email before getting their acceptance that night so maybe you’ll hear tonight. Good luck!
You’ll hear around 9-10pm
i got in!!! officially can declare tOSU '28
Congratulations!
Can someone clarify which applicants would have been notified on Feb 16? Was there a specific date by which the application would have been submitted?
Thanks!
EA also had 2 dates. It was totally random when you heard back and the date meant nothing about your decision.
Does anyone know if they ever best the March 22 date? Or is that hard and fast?
I don’t think so. They have followed the previous 3 release dates exactly and with the huge increase in apps they probably need all the time they can get.
Quietest thread I’m on! Do we think being deferred until March 22 means we’re probably not getting in? It’s the last school we’re waiting for and my daughter is dying to commit already. She’s into PSU, Uconn and Clemson so all great options for her. And we think it’s definitely 3/22 right?! A girl can hope!
I don’t think it means less likely to get in…
I agree w/ Speer! in fact, i have read places that most people that get deferred get in! they just want to compare the deferred students to the reg desicion students but I heard most will get accepted! wishing the best for yall!
