SMU EA/ED Class of 2024 discussion

I haven’t heard anything!

Invites must be coming this week, right?

i think theyre bound to be this week because i think the interviews are late march, they have to give a decent notice i would expect…

Supposedly Presidential Scholarship came out according to reddit, I didn’t get anything though so who knows?

I got the email!!

Just now or earlier, becaise if it was earlier they probably just didn’t send emails to the people who didn’t get it.

@Robthebob about an hour ago, 6:10 EST

Congrats to those who got one! My son did not unfortunately, but he is still excited about the university. When are interviews?

March 27!!

Has anyone else received PS invite email? So far I only see one. Wondering if all invites have gone out at this point?

@ResearchOne Yes. Replied to your other post.

I got an email from my admissions counselor saying they would be sent out in early March.

@kstieben the RSVP date is March 6 though

Congratulations to all who got an interview. Must be an incredibly strong group as I thought my student’s essay and was the strongest of all of his college essays. He has decided to accept UT Honors admission since he didn’t get this- an SMU opening for someone waitlisted! SMU is beautiful and the profs are very engaged with their students- you don’t have to pledge to be involved-ENJOY!

My son was denied Cox, it was his top choice school. He’s very disappointed.

Yes denied from Cox, in to SMU

Cany anyone confirm / deny all Presidential scholarship invites have gone out - reached out but no word yet from office. Some posts say yes others say some may go out next week. Holding out hope!

Sorry to hear about Cox. Was he deferred then denied? Do you know if they are starting to let the deferred kids know? Thanks

@notigerhere We also are waiting for deferred decisions for Cox. Sounds like maybe ED2 and RD applicants for Cox business decisions have been made. If true, they have reviewed their total pool and now have minimum baselines. Assuming deferred candidates are waiting for openings based on withdrawls. Good luck and please post if you hear anything on timing.

@CollegeMom70 Sorry about denial status. They said at visit that with this year being the first direct admit year for Cox, they anticipated a more competitive process. Did your DS apply RD or other?
