<p>Hey Everyone, </p>
<p>I just wanted to make a thread for any American University applicants who applied regular decision so we all have one place where we can discuss topics, answer questions, and be able to share our admission decisions when they come out. </p>
<p>:) </p>
Hi! My name is Ximena! I applied RD to American and it is my first choice right now!
I applied RD for American, one of my top choices for sure! Does anyone know if you get your admission decision when they send out letters telling if you made it to the second round for Honors? I’m not expecting to get that far in Honors, but it would be nice if they sent out decisions then.
@musicgirlx17 Feb 15!
@xim0204 thanks! I just found it on their website, too, actually!
@musicgirlx17 Good luck!!!
good luck everyone! applied RD too
Hey does anyone knw when the admission decisions came out last year for rd?
Does anyone know when we find out about RD? I really want to go here really bad but financially I cant afford it.
Last year decisions were released on March 26 I believe. Expect a decision by mid/late March.
what about early decision round 2 response date ?
I also applied RD to American. Good luck everyone!
Do our decisions come in the mail or email? I feel like I read which it was somewhere but I can’t find it on AU’s website.
I think mail…? Not sure either.
Older posts have said snail mail, old-fashioned style.
The email that was sent out today stated that there were over 16600 applications for an expected class size of 1600. Last year the class was bigger, at 1800, and they accepted close to 6900. So It’s a good chance the acceptance rate will be in the mid to low 40s and it may even go down to the low 30s. It all depends on their expected yield and the ED rate.
I meant high 30s in my last post! Also, I take back the last part about the ED rate, that’s completely separate from this. I thought it was 1600 total but I believe it’s 1600 excluding ED students.
idk how many people got this email that was sent out asking whether or not you have committed to another school…hopefully that means they are interested if they want to make sure that if they accept you, you will be attending. 
Good luck guys …March 9th is right around the corner!
My daughter got that email too
S got the email too - I think it went out to all RD applicants.
