Do you mind letting us know who you heard this from? From Mrs. Lugo? Or did you call them by any chance?

Do you know whether they will be sending the second wave of acceptances before the start of the new year by any chance?

Any international students who interviewed/got accepted?

 

[melad916afg]

Scholarship offers are going to be made by the 17th for those recipients

 

[SpadeElevator]

I already sent my deposit, does that mean they’re not going to consider me for a scholarship? Because they already know I’m committed regardless of price?

[Futuredentist001]

[spianoos]

Did everyone who didn't get accepted get waitlisted or is it really "very limited" as the email says? I'm also waitlisted :')

The waitlist email said they gave out the maximum number of acceptances. Not sure if they accounted for the post-dec interviews.

 

[SpadeElevator]
