Finished my interview with Smith.. Now comes the wait.. My decision deadline is on april 15.. Does Smith release the decisions only on the decision date or do they inform earlier ? Anyone received the decisions earlier ?

i was informed 2 days after my interview. but i applied in the second round and i'm not sure what they'll do for the later rounds. there is a deposit deadline of march 15th for admitted students, so they may accept more new students after that, depending on how many commit to maryland.

hey guys!
I have a question about scholarship:

i received an email saying my application decision was available. go i logged into the online application system and saw that i was admitted (at this point, it was not the FORMAL admission, there was no deposit information in the decision letter).

in the next few days, i was hopping to see the second email with the possible scholarship information. about three days went by - nothing. out of curiosity, i logged back into the online application system, and realized that the "Decision letter" was changed. this one told me that i was "FORMALLY ADMITTED", and mentioned about the deposit amount, deadline, the link to submit the deposit, etc.

another 2 days went by, i received a letter in the MAIL. it just congratulated me about the admission, and said that i was "classified as a out-of-state student for tuition purpose". again, nothing about scholarship.

just to recap, i received ONE email, saying the decision was available. and in the online application system, the decision letter was changed from the original one (informally admitted) to the new one (formally admitted) with the deposit information. and i also received a actual letter in the mail that congratulated my admission. none of these has any scholarship information.

so does it mean that there is NO scholarship/fellowship for me at all? for the people who did not get a scholarship, did you just receive one email when the decision became available? or you also received a second email tells you that the decision is updated with the deposit information? just wondering if they are still going to send that second email with the possible scholarship info, or i am DONE

thanks a lot guys!

I got scholarship information in a second email, within a week of the initial acceptance email. It was also in the packet mailed. If you aren't sure, you should call the admissions office, but I believe any scholarship info would have definitely been in the mailed packet.

Hey Everyone , I got the email from Smith on 15th feb stating that I have been recommended fully for admission

, but did not get any email for scholarship. did you guys get the notification of scholarship immediately after the admission confirmation or did you get it after some time.
