2018 Notification Guide

It’s on the portal-- there is a decisions tab

I have two quick questions: What time is Groton 8AM or 6PM? Also, for Andover Where on Gateway will it be?

@SportyStudent21 while Groton’s decisions came out at 6:00 p.m. last year, they have updated it to instead come out at 8:00 a.m. on their portal this year, which is an entire ten hours earlier than last year, which means less time to agonize about your decision.

I’m trying to update the list as I get new info, so look at the latest lists posted. Also, if I remember correctly, last year, Andover posted both on the School applicant portal and on Gateway. The portal froze, so we went to Gateway and clicked on Andover…

Does Blair has its own portal? I applied to Blair, and I haven’t received any messages regarding their portal.

@keystosuccess Thank you for the quick response. Less agonizing time is always good. :slight_smile:

Andover, in its confirmation e-mail, said decisions would be released at 9:00 AM through an online portal,

Wait, NMH releases their decisions on the 8th?

How can we expect Westtown and George notifications? I know the date is 3/10 according to website but is than an email, mail? A particular time if an email?

Normally the schools that you applied to will notify you—usually mid-February. If y’all get those emails, let me know and I’ll update the list for ease of keeping track. Sorry, but we didn’t apply this year & obviously not everyone applied to every school, so I’ll have to rely on y’all to help with the updates as you hear them.

@keystosuccess so decisions for Groton go live at 8 AM ET?

@AllSmiles2 I did not apply to Groton, the person who did on the previous page of this discussion says that their decisions will come out at 8 A.M. EST on March 10th, so if that person was correct, as I believe they should be as they are providing their input onto this site, the decisions for Groton will go live at that time.

@keystosuccess I should know all the decisions before Saturday morning practice then… :)) Thanks for the note!

How about Dana Hall? Notifications on M10 through Ravenna!

@SkysTheLimit2007 do you have a time? I’ll add it to the list.
