Accepted!! I’m a low-income student, 30 ACT, 3.85 UW, Jamaican. Demonstrate your interest and don’t be discouraged from applying if you’re low-income!! This is so exciting, I’m so happy 
@nathancard I don’t know about you, but just saying “suck it up” isn’t going to do much for the people that got rejected. I would, in fact, argue that your advice to them might have been pretty bad. It is totally understandable for people to analyze (and possibly overanalze) what happened. Admission decisions are a big part of life, you know.
Rejected. L
Huge congrats to everyone accepted!! Does anyone know if there is an admitted students weekend/visiting day?
Son accepted. ACT superscore: 33 GPA UW 4.0, W 4.4, Eagle Scout, Varsity Tennis, Varsity Cheer, Speech & Debate. SATII Chem 800, Bio 760. 10 AP’s
when’s the deadline for submitting need based scholarship info??? (ie css profile)
@saskey12 Hey, when you go on to your portal, click on the link that says,“see what steps you need to take …” and then press plan your campus visit. It will then give you the option to attend the multicultural celebration days or spring preview. I think this is the closest thing to an admitted student weekend. The nice thing is they pay for your flight!
@Fejiro I’m low income and I got accepted to WashU Engineering with a full ride. I’m confident that WashU does not only accept rich kids.
Stats:
New SAT- 770 Math, 730 Verbal
GPA- 4.7 weighted, 3.8 uw
Class Rank- 1/124
Hooks- URM, low income, first gen college
D was waitlisted. Anyone know the acceptance figures from the waitlist and tips to make a WL candidate more attractive? Thanks and congrats to all who got in.
Has anyone heard anything about any admitted student events / weekends?
Son accepted!!!
Homeschooled. 35 ACT. SAT II’S: 750 LIT, 750 BIO, 800 AMER HIST. Extensive EC’s, good REC’s and essays. Attended information event close to hometown. Visited campus and had an interview. Received Eliot Scholarship.
Waitlisted…actually a pleasant surprise. WUSTL was a late entry in the admissions game for DS so demonstrated interest was zero. Such a competitive school and competitive applicants it makes me optimistic about the decisions that are still coming where DS did show interest. It’s encouraging that WUSTL admissions saw something in his application that made them want to waitlist, not reject outright. Congratulations to those admitted!
S got rejected - disappointed and worried about how this might be a bad sign for his other reach schools. ACT 33/34 - 35SS, 3.8 GPA, great recs and EC, no hooks, oh well - has other good choices, just stressing over his tops.
@Slovak98 Not sure if you meant to reply to me or not, but I didn’t say anything of the sort! Merely stated that I was accepted and excited and gave a brief overview of my stats. Did you mean to reply to someone else?
@ATXDAD15 I empathize with your situation. Hang in there. S was accepted but I’ve been there with other children with those stats and it does work out.
exactly the same!!! deferred ED, then denied. and I showed a ton of interest by touring, getting an interview, and keeping in touch w/ the rep…I guess i didn’t meet their standards
Accepted! Didn’t think my scores were good enough for internationals, but I guess it does help that I go to high school in the US : )
Rejected but to be expected as I demonstrated zero interest at all.
@nathancard congrats on getting accepted, I was rejected :/. Are you going to make an acceptance video on Youtube?
Waitlisted with a 2230 SAT, 3.8 gpa, legacy, national merit, and good ECs. Odd, considering how many of my peers were also rejected/waitlisted but had very, very competitive resumes. I guess Washu’s one of those schools that really only bother with ED to boost its rankings.
