Ha. When they change Rice back to “By April 1.” Funny…

683

Northwestern’s acceptance rate dropped so much this year!!!

684

Has Bryn Mawr posted yet? The Information at their site is confusing . . .

685

@raiderrunner2015 Where did you find information on NU’s acceptance rate?

686

Stanford’s site lists the notification date as April 1 exactly, not “by April 1”.

687

An email that went out ffrom Bryn Mawr College today says “Admissions decisions for Bryn Mawr’s Class of 2019 will be announced next week.”

688

Anyone know anything about Haverford? Is that done by email (portal) or mailing? What about Oberlin? Neither has info on their sites that I can find.

689

So where did the rumor about Rice coming out today start?

690

@LacrossePlayer‌ I think they’re mailed out on Wednesday

691

It came out on Monday the past two years, and Rice doesn’t notify you beforehand of when the decision is coming out, so this was what everyone was basing it off of.

692

@lacrosseplayer the Oberlin info is CLEARLY marked on their website - decisions April 1st. http://new.oberlin.edu/arts-and-sciences/admissions/first-year-applicant/deadlines.dot

693

Which @saswizy, Oberlin or Haverford? (Thanks!)

694

@LacrossePlayer Haverford doesn’t release them electronically

695

@janjmom thanks. I wasn’t sure because several other of my schools have said April 1 on their websites and the decisions have come before that. In some cases it seems like April 1 is a default they use, and then they release any time around the end of March/early April. But perhaps Oberlin isn’t one of those! Thanks for the info about Haverford @hjajo96. I didn’t know that Haverford didn’t do an electronic release.

696

@lacrossplayer granted, just because it says april 1st does not mean it couldn’t come out earlier…but all you can do is figure that the posted info is correct until or unless something different happens!

697

Anyone know UNC Chapel Hill or Wake Forest dates?

698

@LacrossePlayer‌ Haverford!

699

Wake forest said that decisions should be sent out mid to late this week @charlottelol1‌

700

@LacrossePlayer‌ Oberlin admissions officers have confirmed via email that admissions decisions will be out sometime this week.
