Oh I’m just assuming since they take like 30 or fewer OOS applicants out of 1600 without interviews haha

Does anyone know where there is information about receiving in-state tuition after the first year if you are OOS? I’ve seen some posts about it but just curious if there was more info on that anywhere online.

I've gotten all of my decisions on either a Tuesday or Friday when I least expected it. But now I expect it on those days so maybe they'll change it up on me 🤣
But either way whenever it hits 2-3pm I'm staring at my phone

Same. Maybe it actually will be on giving day tomorrow?
we can only hope
I really hope we find out today, but I have a feeling we won't 🙃

Seriously! I might lose a housing opportunity waiting for NC state! I just don’t want to sign a lease somewhere else until I know for sure

As an OOS student with a life, two weeks is not long enough to make a trip to Raleigh and see if I can travel hundreds of miles for a move if accepted… [emoji854]
It’s just a big decision, especially with a family, to make in a small window. I’ve tried to be understanding that there are more applicants but CSU had 4500 applicants and got their decisions out earlier than normal! Very disappointed. :/

I understand that they're behind but getting decisions out 3 weeks before the national deadline is extremely inconsiderate. No where near enough time for visits, housing, etc.

I get they had a lot of apps and a lot of factors to consider, however so do we. No one wants to make a decision for another school or sign a lease until you hear back from all schools.
And on top of that, we’ll have no time to visit and it makes it even worse for people on waitlists because others can’t make their decisions yet to free up spots. It’s our whole future 🙁

I think it’s also annoying that it says on their website and in past years OOS found out before IS because they need time to find housing and plan their lives. It even has a timeline posted that OOS will find out Jan 31st.
It would have been nice to have an apology and more email updates.

They’re probably gone for the day since it’s almost 7pm their time. Maybe try again in the morning?
The zoom call for accepted students is next Thursday(31st). Therefore id assume we would know tomorrow. That would give us a week to clear schedule for that hour. But 🤷🏾♀️ who knows.

I'm thinking the same mainly because I'm pretty sure IS found out the day after giving day last year. But yeah I'm not sure of anything anymore 🤣

They told all five accepted OOS to keep it a secret from the other 1300
Hahaha, this is what my wife said when I talked with her!

On the email the IS person showed us, it looks like they have a reception on April 2 that might be in person? How are we supposed to get flights in less than a week?

You’re supposed to buy the most expensive plane ticket and think of all the money you’ll save on future IS tuition?
nireepoh

Who needs a plane ticket when Google maps says I could walk there in 7 days. guess I should leave soon 🤣
While I agree that it is frustrating and does increase the stress from the time constraint of making decisions, let’s be aware of what we’re saying and try to be considerate of outside factors that could be going on and affecting the committee. I’m sure they’re trying their hardest and I understand wanting to rant about feelings but let’s all try to avoid comments that could come across as rude to the admissions team as it does nothing but present us in a poor way. A few calls to the office from multiple people could maybe help push them to release by the end of this week but it’s honestly out of our control. Wishing the best of luck to everyone!

This is just exhausting at this point. I get that we all seem to be upset/complaining but we are about 3 weeks out from the national deadline right now. It's very unfortunate that they've kept us in the dark for so long.

Does that mean OOS won’t hear until all IS are done…. 🥲
