Pacific University (Oregon)

Has anyone heard back from Pacific? I saw a few people post acceptances, but didn’t seem like much.. has anyone heard anything else? Acceptances? Waitlists? Rejections?

Nope

[speechboys]

Did you interview via Skype or in person? I interviewed in the first round of in person interviews and was rejected a few days ago

I interview on the 15th in person and haven't heard anything yet, acceptance or rejection, maybe they will send out their waitlist soon

Same, I interviewed on the 2/15, and felt super confident about how it went but havent heard anything.

I interviewed via Zoom (online) on 2/15. I received the phone call with acceptance/GA position offer on 3/2. Then, I received the email with GA specifics and the official admissions letter on 3/6. I'm on the fence about declining this offer, because I really want to go here, but another school has offered me a very competitive/valuable GA position (half-off tuition plus weekly stipend!!), so I would be foolish to choose to pay $30,000 more per year in tuition at Pacific, right?? Still, it really hurts. I will likely be declining this offer tonight or tomorrow.

Interviewed on 2/8, received a phone call of acceptance on 3/2, but haven't received an official admissions email yet. Similar to others, I really liked the staff and would love to go here, but it's a lot of money. I'm waiting to hear back from University of Oregon (hopefully by 3/13) and will make a final decision then.

Oh hmmm interesting. I still haven't heard anything- waitlist, denial, or acceptance. I guess I'll just keep being patient! Seems like they sent their acceptances out, so I'm assuming I'm either on the waitlist or rejected.. guess we will see!! 

[laurelstock]

Just got the email today that I was waitlisted, bummed but at least we know now! 

[Emehteg1]

Just recieved my rejection email. It's all good because I've already accepted my top school!

[Gradslp]

Does anyone know how Pacific's waitlist works?

- Do spots become available immediately as people decline their acceptances?

- Also, does any current students or incoming students know how realistic it is to actually get into Pacific off the waitlist? Do they usually go pretty deep?

Thank you!
