My son was deferred and then waitlisted. We sent in a LOCI after he was deferred, but nothing at all after he was waitlisted. He only clicked the link to request to stay on the waitlist and nothing else.
My son’s portal has been changing often since last night but no email so we wait.
I sent in a LOCI because even though they say the weight list is unranked it really isn’t. When I talked to the office on the phone she said if my application is reviewed again the committee will make a decision then. If it was random they wouldn’t be reviewing applications again.
Woke up so sad this morning and the decided to try and view my initial decision letter under accepted waitlist decision… I GOT IN beyond happy
@1221cds What do you mean your sons portal has been changing? How has it been changing?
I think you tagged the wrong person 
My son’s portal started changing last night. Decision letter changed to an accepted letter, although status didn’t reflect that. And, there is a new option for a New Student Checklist on the portal, but when you select it, it gives you an access denied error. Last night, no financial aid information, today there is some.
Does anyone know if international students are being accepted right now? Or is there going to be a period where they start accepting international students?
@4lphaP good question. I too am an international student. Let’s hope we receive our decision soon 
Son was accepted off waitlist this AM. He applied EA, then deferred, then WL. (he sent a LOCI after being deferred too). He is OOS, Mechanical Engineering, 31 ACT. There was no email notifying him. He just checked his portal and there is now an acceptance letter - giving 5 days to respond. So everyone check portal!
got in this morning and the update was sent just now
Congrats guys!
