Accepted OOS [but New England]. Finance at the Isenberg School of Management. 18k Chancellor’s Award. No Honors.
3.9 GPA (unweighted), 1520 SAT (800 verbal, 720 math). All 5s on APs but generally much lower grades in math classes vs humanities. Heavily involved in community and school, lots of leadership. Took econ-associated classes/extracurriculars.
I hope everyone still waiting gets the decision they want!
Where is everyone seeing the merit scholarship? On the acceptance PDF? Has anyone who is in-state received merit?

Merit is in the letter itself. I have seen in the past that OOS kids are more likely to get merit and in-state kids are more likely to get honors. And OOS merit awards are typically higher
It is on the acceptance PDF. My son’s did.

My daughter is in-state. Finance, Isenberg, Dean’s scholarship and Honors. She was test optional, 5 APs (hon calc and AP Stats were highest math), 3.8 UW gpa. She has a ton of leadership, started an all female finance club, led two other clubs, two finance internships including a competitive high school internship at Fidelity and very specific with her essays. Seems like maybe honors college was fairly holistic?
I agree based on what my son submitted for resume (and particularly the short answers) and his acceptance.
Congratulations! Are you out of state?
Congrats! Are you out of state?
International.
Congratulations, my older son is at Isenberg and absolutely loves it and UMass.
They probably do take a holistic approach (at I hope they do) which is why I’m surprised for my son with his resume. Like I said, it must have been highly competitive with great applicants, which is a win for our flagship university.
