I'm considering applying, I have applied to oregon once and they were VERY helpful for my file review 🙂

Hey! Is it even worth applying considering they accept so few OOS? Does your app have to be absolutely stellar in order to be accepted if you are OOS?

My app wasn't stellar, I didn't have a 4.0 or anything. I will be attending OOS. I applied originally as a WICHE applicant, but I didn't get funding so I'm just a regular OOS.

Cool, thanks! Oregon doesn't do interviews right? Are they going to this year?

I'm not sure. I'm just entering as a freshman this fall. They only did interviews for instate applicants. If their plans changed, it would have been announced for this cycle already as people are applying.

Has anybody heard a timeline for when they start sending out interview invites? Obviously it won't be for awhile, but I was just curious.

Last year IS interviews took place in January. OOS applicants were notified of decisions at the beginning of December.

Ok, thank you!

Are only IS students interviewed? That's what it seems like based on their website, but I'm not sure.

Last year, only IS students were interviewed. I'm not sure if it changed this year, but I doubt it

Decided to apply to OSU as well. My numbers aren't as stellar as most OOS apps, but with my diversity and whatnot, I think I stand a decent chance. I think we'd love Corvallis.

It hasn't changed, they only interview IS students.

 

[EastCoast94]

Me! I'm an OOS.

It looks like we're applying to a few of the same schools (I've seen your name all over the other schools' threads). Good luck!

I am out of state as well, could you possibly share your stats?

You can find my stats here!

Also, I'm now well into first year, so feel free to ask me any questions.

 

[KayBay999]

Has anyone heard anything from Oregon yet?

Has anyone heard anything from Oregon yet?

I believe they said they won't announce anything until mid-December!

 

[KayBay999]

Eeek! I was reading through last years thread and it seems like we could hear back any day now!!

 

[Platypus0417]

Even for out of state students?

 

[KayBay999]

Even for out of state students?

Last years thread and the year before that it was IS interviews first and then a few OOS acceptances. Hopefully they are keeping in the same general timeline!

 

[katashark]

Even for out of state students?

I heard 12/4 last year and I'm out of state. So you should hear pretty soon. That was a Friday, so maybe this week? I haven't heard anything about any changes though.

 

[Platypus0417]

Any out of state people receive an email?

 

[lhmhtd]

Any out of state people receive an email?

Nope, nothing.

 

[PigFarmer25]

Nope, nothing.

The alert I received on here about the new comments gave me a heart attack! Lol I thought people were commenting that they had heard back today.

 

[lhmhtd]

Sorry lol

 

[katashark]

This is our finals week. So I'd assume you'll hear something within the next week or two. Don't stress too much! Enjoy the holidays!!

Oh my gosh I just got an OOS admissions offer!!! I am feeling pretty bad about my interview for another school yesterday, so this was a really pleasant surprise 🙂 Definitely wasn't expecting it. Anybody else hear back?!?!

 

[bullyb]

I just received an email that I'm on the alternate list! I'm OOS🙂

 

[PigFarmer25]

I just received an email that I'm on the alternate OOS list also! 🙂

 

[Jebb]

I just got an email saying I'm an alternate too. Also OOS

 

[lhmhtd]

Make that 4, I'm also an alternate!

 

[katashark]

Congratulations!! Hope to see you folks around 🙂

 

[REB_23]

OOS ACCEPTED!!!!!

 

[KayBay999]

OOS rejected...

 

[lhmhtd]

OOS rejected...

I'm sorry 🙁 got my first rejection letter this past weekend. It sucks. Don't let it get you down though. It wasn't meant to be right now.

 

[pupperoniformuloni]

OOS alternate list!

 

[singhb09]

OOS rejected as well. For my fellow rejectees -- don't beat yourself up! Every school looks for something different in an applicant and just because one school deemed you worthy of rejection, doesn't mean others will as well 🙂

 

[Echiko]

OOS accepted! Thrilled!

 

[thatonegirl__]

OOS accepted !

I'm still in shock. I was definitely expecting to be considered an alternate.

 

[Momokeen]

OOS alternate!

 

[Platypus0417]

OOS accepted!!! @katashark could you tell us a bit about OSU!!!

 

[MNK23]

OOS rejected... second one this week

 

[Secretariat_12]

OOS accepted!

 

[lhmhtd]

I've been perusing previous years threads & im kinda getting mixed results, but does anyone know what the chances are of being pulled off the waitlist. It looks like there's not a ranking system, but rather they just re-evaluate all the alternates as needed. Some have suggested it's got great turnover and some have said not so.

 

[katashark]

I don't know what the chances are for waitlisted/alternates. I'd assume that for IS, chances are low for being pulled off. However, for OOS, you'd have a much better chance on the wait list. There's also WICHE.

@Platypus0417 What would you like to know!?
