@LACboi Did Bates send email notifications about the date beforehand? Or was it directly put on the portal?
Do people who were deferred ED1 find out at the same time as RD people?
any news about the decision dates?
@afisher623 Yes. They find out at the same time
I called Bates and they said decisions would go out at 8am, Saturday the 17th.
8am which time zone please?
is this 100% definite? @meredithfp
It’s what they told me when I called. I assume eastern time zone. Not sure 100% on the time – I’m pretty sure that’s what she said. She definitely said the morning of the 17th.
@meredithfp awesome, thanks!
Can someone else call and confirm? Just to be sure they’re telling everyone and that decisions are really out on Friday?
dawg relax

Congratulations! I just checked the portal and there is no update yet. Thought the decisions were coming out tomorrow morning. How did you find out?
Tomorrow? I thought they come out on 17th
You are correct it is the 17th!
@edunknown did you find this out recently as an RD applicant? or did you find out as an ED applicant?
I sincerely apologize if edunknown is being serious but I think he’s trolling. I mean really, a 107 gpa? I called and admissions do come out Saturday at 8am est.
I have no idea why “tr*lling” was censored.
Decisions coming out Saturday at noon EDT! Good luck to all!!!
Just received the email ! I’m so nervous!
