Many people are reporting the portal (SISS) has been updated. If you are currently logged in, the update may not display. You will need to log-out and reenter the portal.

Still waiting on SISS to be update. I was on WL in round 1 and only shows that decision so far. Now i can sign out and back in for the next 24 hours like a crazy person.

Seeing the same, which is confusing. The website states that it will be on page 2 of the admissions letter. Did any accepted applicants have a page 2 or have they possibly changed their notification?

Did they call you? What worked for you to get off the waitlist?

I am still on the waitlist I guess.

I specifically asked the ad com member that called me this morning regarding financial aid. She said any scholarships would be in the letter sent later in the day. Since I did not have a second page, that means no merit scholarship.

Admitted! And yes, I did receive a second page with merit scholarship information. However, in the financial aid tab (and when I click "Review Financial Aid" from the homepage) it still says "Financial Aid information not ready for release" - so it's only in the letter.
Congrats to all admitted!
