Good gpa! We couldn’t tour. We showed up while on vacation once and just walked around. Tried virtual tour and it just broke on us! Her weighted is outstanding, but not unweighted. We went TO because she was on the cusp. Feel like we could have asked.

Well, i guess i just gotta wait. Her focus was on her ED school when it comes to showing interest.

Hang in there - D23 was also deferred and ultimately accepted. Good luck!

Anyone know when they send merit (if any)?

3.96/4.58. Combo of AP’s/DE in lots of different subjects, heavy in science. Math is through Calc BC, and taking Discrete next semester. EC’s and volunteer all focused around one activity. Nothing crazy. Good essays. Positive tone in all of them and examples of why Neuroscience.

My daughter’s portal post said merit and non-merit financial decisions would be posted in the portal “soon,” but nothing more specific than that.
I am also wondering about timing for invitation to apply for Honors.

In case it helps, my son was deferred in 2022 and got in during Reg Decision. If it matters to your son, have him stay in touch with the school.

Daughter admitted to Arts & Science (biochem). 3.73UW, ~4.3W; 1580 SAT, 36 ACT, 15 APs, assorted dual enrollments, strong STEM extracurriculars/internship plus girl scouts and XC/track. We toured in March 2023. This is one of her top choices; we are really hoping for Honors College.

Congratulations to all who are getting good news! Those who were deferred - don’t give up hope! Regular Decision acceptance comes through for a lot of those who are deferred early.

She definitely didn’t get her math skills from me. :slight_smile: I would have been in big trouble if I had to do the math these kids do today. Congrats to your daughter. It’s a great school.

I’m in! And congrats to everyone else who is!

But I saw that in order to get into the honors college, you have to get an invitation email. Does that come in a few days or was it supposed to come with my status update (meaning I won’t be able to be in honors)?
