Accepted now. I thought it'd be later.

Applying to College

<p>I was caught off guard today when I received an acceptance letter from Clemson University. I am overjoyed but a bit perplexed because I was under the impression that Early Action applicants would hear back on February 15. I even double-checked their website just now and it said this. It was a more than pleasant surprise, but for the sake of curiosity I'd love to know why I got a decision early. Thanks for any help!</p>

<p>And I would post on the Clemson specific forums but it is kind of dead there.</p>

<p>There are at least a few other colleges that have started mailing acceptance letters in the last few weeks too.</p>

<p>Clemson is a great school and great value with excellent job placement for graduates. Ignore ivycool and congrats!</p>

Interesting that this statement came from someone who cannot even spell “because” correctly.</p>

<p>Nothing prevents a school from giving a decision earlier than the promised date.</p>
