Hi guys! I recently (10/6) submitted my application to Shenandoah but I have not heard anything about them even just saying they have received my application. Has anyone else applied this cycle and had a similar experience? Is it normal to not get a generic email that they have received my application? Any advice would be helpful!

Hey!

I put my app in early and got a standard confirmation email mid-September. I'd say reach out to admissions :)
 
Ok great! I contacted the admissions counselor 2 weeks ago about it and her answer was not helpful... maybe I should try again! Thank you!

I got my confirmation email last year a few days after the application deadline. I'm sure that it is on it's way
 
Ok! Thanks for the responses! It has been a week since the app deadline and was just making sure that everything was ok! I submitted my stuff to one other school at the time and I received a message from them so i didn't know if it was normal to not have received a message yet!

I haven't gotten a confirmation e-mail either.
 
Me neither I submitted in Sept at shenandoah
 
Interesting... maybe I can contact admissions again tomorrow? I think it is strange that some of us would receive it and some not...

I got an email at the beginning of the week that said that my app was being forwarded to the admissions committee!

They aren't doing interviews this year! I went to the open house and that's what I was told

Sweet, thanks! I thought it might be around then, but wasn't sure. Goodluck!
 
i heard back last year towards the middle of January!
 
Still haven't gotten the second email guys and I submitted my app in mid September. I tried emailing Linda twice but of course no answer. Getting kind of worried not knowing if they received everything ?! Anyone in the same boat?

Hi guys. I've been checking this thread every day since I found it. I got the email that my application had been forwarded to the admissions committee back in the middle of November. I'm so anxious to hear! This is my second time applying to schools so I'm hoping this year I get in! How about you guys? Is this your top school?
 
@srOT I am the same way. I'm on here everyday haha and good luck to you!! This is my first year applying but my stats are pretty low. I am telling myself now that I won't get in so I won't be bummed :/ Waiting to hear from 4 more schools but I'd say Shenandoah is my top! What about you?!

Good luck to you also! I applied to JMU only last year and was put on the waiting list. Inpplied to shenendoah and JMU this year. I'm getting married this year so the hybrid program makes it a great choice for me. Did you apply to Winchester or NOVA?

I've been checking in every day too! I just want to hear back from somewhere! I've applied to 7 schools...it's my first time applying and I'm nervous I'm not going to get into any. I'm not sure if it's my top choice yet, but I like the location and love how affordable it is, so it is definitely up there! Do you guys live in the area?

Hi! I hope you get in somewhere! I live about an hour from both the Winchester campus and from the Leesburg campus! What about you?

Thanks! I hope you get in somewhere too!! I live about an hour from the Northern Virginia campus and about 1.5 hours from the other campus.
 
I am anxiously waiting as well! Playing the waiting game is not fun! Good luck to everyone... my thought is that if they said "by December" then it would be before the holidays since most schools close around Christmas Eve. So hopefully we wont be in the dark for too long!

I hope we find out soon! I was looking through other threads and last year it seems like people were finding out this week! Good luck to you!
