Anyone applied ED?

<p>Um…I just wanna know when can we receive the decision letter(especially international student, I am :] ). Does ‘mid Dec.’ means Dec. 15 ?
Thanx :]</p>

<p>Wish I knew too. I'm having the same confusion and going away on Dec. 19 for an xmas vac with my family. I'd love to know before then...Did you find anything out since this post?</p>

<p>Probably. Might be a little different for international students. Most ME residents receive replies on 12/15. I'm from MA and I got my letter on 12/16.</p>

<p>Thanks KSolow!
And by the way, do they also send out emails on 12/15?</p>

<p>Here's a link to an article in the Bowdoin student newspaper on the ED process:</p>

<p>Early</a> Admissions: Peers’ policy changes may affect Bowdoin</p>

<p>Nothing earth-shaking: there's been a small increase in ED applications this year (2.5%) but most of the increase seems to be students from Maine (increasing from 25 to 45) - there's also been a drop in the number of applicants of color (falling from 51 to 38) - about 50% of the ED admits will be athletes and about 40% of next year's freshman class will be admitted through the ED process.</p>

<p>I'm so anxious.</p>

<p>No emails to American students, but possibly to international students? I'm not sure.</p>

<p>yes my friend who is an international apparently called them up and the admissions officer said that internationals will get an e-mail..</p>

<p>Is it true that they contact the acceptances first?</p>

<p>anybody out there?</p>

<p>I don't think they do, but don't take my word for it.</p>

<p>thanks again KSolow. Good luck to everyone.</p>

<p>The letters are going to be sent out tomorrow (Thurs. 13)</p>

<p>my lucky number.</p>

<p>Excellent! One of my brothers just got into Carleton E-D; the other (they're twins) applied E-D to Bowdoin and is anxiously awaiting any news...</p>

<p>Good luck to everyone! :)</p>

<p>how do you know this? we called admissions today at noon, and were told letters will "probably" be mailed out tomorrow (Friday)...</p>

<p>yeah, how do you know this?</p>

<p>I'm a prospective athlete and the coach said that they'd be sent 12/13</p>

<p>My brother got in today!</p>
