Does anyone know If SMU admits low GPA student in RD to have larger number to commit?
I don’t know, but I would doubt it. If you look at the information for admitted students from 2023, the range is pretty high.
I know kids applying and deferred with low 3.0 range…
Hi there does anyone know when RD notifications will be released for prospective incoming freshmen?
The website says mid March.
Yes, just was hoping to find a specific date. But thank you!
Today! Just now
March 13, 2024 at 7pm cst during spring break.
Just went out today
My son was accepted to SMU/Meadows as a Second Century Scholar.
Anything extra we can do for cox or just sit and pray after doing the waitlist form
My son was just admitted to Cox after originally being waitlisted EA. We toured the campus and spoke to an admissions counselor while there, demonstrating a strong interest in Cox. Good luck.
My son was admitted to Cox and also the University Honors Program. I’m curious for any feedback on those familiar with the UHP program, and whether it is seen as a distinguished program. SMU indicates it is for the top 10% of admitted students but my son hasn’t been able to find anything published regarding improvements on graduation outcomes, if any.
