Washington U. in St Louis Class of 2028 Official Thread

Could someone add me to the finalists’ group chat? Let me know what you need and I can pm you

Speaking of which, any updates on emails and portal notifications from this week?

pm me your instagram!

email came out yesterday w/ zoom links for tonight’s game night social with the other scholarship finalists (danforth and the other one whose name i don’t remember) and fri night interview prep; interviews are saturday morning. no portal update as of early afternoon today.

Any info about Ampersand scholarship? Has anyone received it yet?

I think all scholarships have been announced already. I saw someone on Discord who received the Ampersand. Full ride. That was announced at the same time as the Signature scholarships.

any ervin finalists who missed tonight’s zoom and are not on the insta gc, pm me to be added! i have notes from the call tonight :grin:

Has there been any discussion about RD date for Wash U? I can’t even remember my logic, but at some point after looking around online, I concluded 3/22 seemed very likely.

Anyone have any thoughts for or against?

It was Thursday the 23rd last year, which would be equivalent to the 21st this year, but I think it has been bouncing around a bit year to year.

My guess is either 3/21 or 3/28, based on their history, but that’s really just a guess.

Last yr I dug up the past 4-5 yrs and knew it would be thurs 23rd, so based on that it will definitely be 21st. It won’t be ivy day, never is. Good luck everyone! It was such a great day for D23 last yr and she would have been very happy there! She still wears the shirt they sent to accepted kids.

Hi. I’m a big-time lurker. I usually stick to the shadows but I have a question for the smart people here in the forum. My senior was accepted to Wash U and was interviewed for the Ervin scholars thing. One of his friends texted him that calls were being made to finalists right now. He texted me, then he went silent because he’s at a school function and basically I’m dying of aaaaaaaah.

Anyone know if this is legit?

I believe that Ervin has begun calling finalists. I’m unsure if the other programs have as well.

Yes. Calls are being made right now. My daughter is on a group chat with the other students. Apparently, they started calling people in the eastern time zone first.

My daughter just got the call. She got it!!! They will send email with amount tomorrow. We’re in central standard time.
