Does VT defer a ton like all of these other big state schools and when does that decision come out? Assuming Mid-March?

880

We are expecting not to be admitted which is going to drop SC down on our list especially since OOS and so far no mention of merit.

We are OOS, also. S25 did get merit (around 10K a year) but without Honors he won’t choose it over UGA or U of Florida. I’m guessing Friday only because that’s when they’ve released honors the last 2 years, but they released EA on a “random” day so who knows? We are also waiting on FSU this week. Good luck to all those waiting!

S25 is in same boat - only honors college acceptance will elevate SC over other state flagships. Good luck to all!

Same here otherwise it’s sitting at 4th on the list.

884

Will the Honors College announce Fri?

885

Are there still honors college spots? Hope so. Thought it was all done?

886

If you applied to the honors college, you will receive a decision, good news or bad news. So if you have not received any decision, it’s not over.

I think there are still spots. December was the first round. They usually admit more by the end of February.

888

Per the Dean of the Honors College, they received ~7,000 applications and will be accepting ~1,100 students to fill the goal of a total of 550 enrolled. This is a complete guess, but based on the number of students who attended the Honors-specific events this past weekend at Admitted Student Day, my sense is ~half of the spots have been offered (again, this is a complete guess–so could be more, could be less–but they definitely plan on offering more spots. It does sound like the decisions will be released this Fri evening–but that is not definite either). It is my understanding that there was a waitlist last year and some students were admitted off of the waitlist as well. Good luck to everyone!

Thank you!

890

Did anyone get the email welcoming you to the college of your major? Do we think this means no chance for honors college?

891

I believe we did a while ago.

892

We got one yesterday but I thought it was because my d25 changed her major after ASD. They said it would take a few days to process.

893

from my daughter’s admin rep, Honors College decisions are set to roll out within the next week. Students will be notified via email. So looks like by the end of next week.

894

UGH. thanks

895

Do we know when Deferred/RD decisions come out? Mid-March?

Based on last years thread, I’m hoping for this coming Friday (2/21).

Oh great. For some reason I thought it wasn’t until March.
