Congrats! Could you share what school you got in to and any details to help those of us still hanging on for dear life to any hope of getting in? Thank you so much!
Thank you! Iām currently enrolled to the University of Dayton. Syracuse first contacted me though email and thereās a form that leads you to a simple yes or no answer choice, with your SID, name, and email. They also texted me about the confirmation and from there youāll receive what financial aid youāll have. While on the waitlist I sent in an extra teacher recommendation, but my LOCI was sent way later, in the beginning of May. I havent recieved any awards at the time. However, I used that as leverage to let them know about my determination to learn more and hone my skills. One of my examples was donating blood twice despite my fear of needles, but was one donation short of earning a red cord. Despite that I now know my worth in donating blood and will donate plasma(I have an appointment early June)! Another is talking about my future career goal and how my chosen major can help be a step along the way by listing whatās provided in the course, and connecting that to the skills of the career. I also included stalking their youtube admission channel and virtual sessions. I guess you can talk about what youāre planning on giving to the community over the summer. I tried to make it a personal, yet formal because LOCIs are a great way for admission to see you as a person with your own goals rather than just your application. I sent my LOCI to the dean of admissions and the admission counselor assigned to my county. I also pretended that I was already accepted, because fake it til you make it! Sorry if my post is messy, but if you want any more details, Iāll be happy to answer!

Anyone else still waiting to hear from Syracuse? When I told them I wanted to be on the waitlist, they said June 1st is the date they start sending out acceptances or denials. That was the last thing Iāve heard from them and itās been 2 weeks since June 1st. Maybe it has to do with the fact that I applied to the Newhouse School instead of some of the other schools that Iāve been seeing in this thread.
They over enrolled this year resulting in not enough housing. https://dailyorange.com/2022/06/su-students-relocated-unanticipated-first-year-enrollments/
Well itās all still up in the air. I still havenāt heard back. If they had over-enrolled, they wouldāve told us via email by now.
So if they have reached full capacity in a school or program they will email applicants to say the waitlist is closed ?

Still waiting on the waitlistā¦ does anyone know what the latest day we will know if we are off?
We received an email on June 2nd that the waitlist was closed.
What do you mean by closed?? That they are not taking more kids off the list?
I have spoken to several counselors who have said varying things but the latest is that the kids would know by the end of the month
Thanks!
My understanding is that the waitlist has not yet officially closed but may be small.
The letter we received said they have completed their class for the fall of 2022 and regret to inform the waitlist is closed. It is absolutely possible some
Kids (mine) got this letter while others were kept on a smaller reduced list.
My daughter got an update.
Waiting list closed. However, theyoffered her the pathway program.
My daughter received that as wellā¦ā¦. What are your thoughts??
My niece received an email yesterday (7/1) at 5 PM that said the waitlist was closed. She was also offered the pathway program. She will be declining that and going to Penn State.

My daughter got an offer to go to Lemoin (sp?) and do well and get in next year to general school of arts and sciences at Syracuse, not directly to Newhouse. Is that the Pathways program? My daughter told me. I didnāt see the email. So we are going to Ithaca College and happy about it. They have a great program at Park there and Iāve been happy with everything coming from there. Good luck to all of you on here!
