Pitt and Minnesota for CS too! Surprisingly got substantial merit from MN. Unfortunately kid isn't super excited. Would love just a little from Pitt but haven't heard anything as of yet.

Would you mind sharing the stats and merit aid?

3.96/4.5, 1560, NMSF. No hooks. Two scholarships annually totaling $25k. COA would be around $30k.

Thank you for sharing. My DC is NMSF as well and pursuing CS. In addition to Minnesota, what other high scholarship colleges is your DC applying to or has applied? We haven't thought of NMSF scholarship potential till late in the game and have not applied to any with that focus.

HOPING for merit from CWRU, NEU, BU, Lehigh and Ohio State. Not in a position to pay $80k a year!! Not expecting ANY $ from in-state public.

Congratulations. Best of luck!

CWRU gives a lot of merit. Lehigh did not for my son. 3.96/4.8/1480 (one sitting)

Are there schools that care about getting the score in one sitting?

Hi there to all you '23 parents.

My DC graduated in '22. The first acceptance came about a week before Thanksgiving.

Thinking of this gives me bittersweet memories. A lot has changed since then, including a terrible unexpected loss in our family. But DC is away at college, coming home tomorrow night. I'm so proud of my DC.

Good luck to all!!

Another '22 parent here. There was a similar thread last year on acceptances and it was my absolute favorite DCUM link to refresh, especially around this time. Someone is always getting good news and eventually it will be your kid!

My first year just got home for the holiday and after all the stress and uncertainty, I can say that it all works out for the best (not just for my kid but for all the other 22 grads we know.)

I’m sorry for your loss! So glad your DC is at school and persevering. Enjoy your time with them.

Thanks for the encouragement. It’s definitely a stressful time for most kids. My kid had an acceptance but an extreme safety, but she says she would happily go if that is all she gets.
