Syracuse Early Decision for Fall 2024 Admission

Just go ahead and follow the instructions to activate it. I saw my S24 also received the letter, but it was in his SU Outlook email inbox, not his personal Gmail account that he used to apply to Cuse. These credentials are necessary when logging into MySlice, Syracuse’s student portal, to view financial aid awards. It does not necessarily mean your student has been admitted yet.

We did. The letter said “immediate action required” in reference to setting up his NetID. Seems cruel to ask you to set up an ID with them to then reject you. But this whole process is crazy so who knows.

Wouldn’t they only need you to set up your financial aid account if you were accepted though? It wouldn’t exactly make sense to have a whole separate financial aid account set up to a school that’s rejected you.

Not sure though, just really hoping this is a hint at something!

I agree with you, but that’s how things roll there. Sending good and positive vibes for all of those waiting. Two more days.

I know I have a funny name but I am a student at SU and have heard many different rumors from around the admissions area and have heard “today” from multiple people… take that with a grain of salt but I was once in your shoes and boy oh boy it was a long waiting game. Good luck!

Well folks, nothing this evening….
Until Friday!

That was my logic. Why waste the time to have you set up an account and “clutter” their system with IDs that will then be moot/obsolete. Sounds like a mess for their IT dept.

FWIW, I just looked on Syracuse’s website under Checklist for Admitted Students, Steps to Accept Your Offer. The first item is “Activate your NetID”.

It does note that “If you have not activated your NetID already, you will need to do so.” So may not mean anything. I wonder if any applicants did not receive the email. If everyone did, then it doesn’t mean anything. Either way, we’ll find out soon enough.

It is today. Mark my words.

Hi, I’m a current senior and have been stressed with the decision release of this whole ED1 admissions process at 'Cuse. Is a decision release today 100% imminent and confirmed, even though it’ll be a whole day early? Do you also have any information on the email that was sent out yesterday regarding Net ID, is that a good sign of acceptance?

It’s realy not cool to post this - and get everyone’s hopes up - unless you are absolutely certain. You should delete this if you aren’t. Thank you.

I just want to let you guys know that my son applied RD to Syracuse and got the NetID email so I don’t think it means anything at all
