206

Is the time above for Kent and Taft for this year or from last year’s?

207

Does Kent use UPS, FedEx or USPS?

208

I don’t know I haven’t gotten a mail from them about notifications have you?

209

Nope. All I got was their newsletter.

210

@th123th no one gave any different info for Kent or Taft, so it is carryover from last year.

211

I got a notification a few hours ago from UPS My Choice about an incoming Next Day Air package from Exeter. Weight 1.00 lbs. No status updates on the tracking page yet.

212

@NCtarheel17 how did you get the notification? Does exeter send a text to the phone you listed on the app or does UPS send it?

213

Email from UPS.

I didn’t apply to Exeter (my brother did). But I administer the UPS My Choice account for my family, which means I get an email as soon as anybody creates a shipment to our address.

214

Does SPS send out mail by UPS?

215

i got exeter ups notification too. Weird that it says the package will be delivered tomorrow 3/9 by 12.

216

ah time zones; it’s nearly m10 where I am. Unfortunately I’m going to have to wait for M11 in some cases :smiley: good luck everyone for the next few days, it’s going to be a loooong ride.

217

Did anyone not receive the confirmation emails yet? I’ve only gotten a few and I’m afraid my applications weren’t processed.

218

@brassarrow I received andover, sps, choate, hotchkiss, mx, l’ville and milton.

219

Why am I not receiving any emails from NMH regarding the time they will post their decisions?

220

The emailed we received from NMH was sent 3/1, and said decisions would be available at 12:01 AM on 3/10.
