<p>You can let the computer check it every minute automatically. But it’s still agonizing to see the computer all day!!!</p>
<p>I think they usually make us wait until 6pm :(</p>
<p>6 PM ET you mean? or 9 PM ET?</p>
<p>I guess it would be ET? I’m only saying this because I have a friend here in Florida who got his acceptance last year at 6.</p>
<p>I have a friend who got his acceptance 3 PM ET last year.</p>
<p>Looking at the EA results thread from last year, it seems like the decisions came out at 3:00 PM ET. The thread was started a little after 3, and the first results post was at 3:44.</p>
<p>So 3 PM ET. Less than 15 hours from now.</p>
<p>I believe it will be 12:07 PM Western Time 
Which makes 3:07 PM ET So friggin excited…</p>
<p>Hoooooly **** just a few more hours…</p>
<p>One more hour! Hang in there!</p>

<p>post results here :)</p>
<p>Deferred… :/</p>
<p>I’m glad I have another chance, but with a 5% acceptance rate for deferred applicants I have a feeling this might just be a soft rejection.</p>
<p>S14 is accepted. I am actually crying!!!</p>
<p>well I’m in! </p>
<p>time to study for finals now ^_^</p>
<p>I’m actually surprised I got deferred rather than rejected straight up, mostly because I didn’t think my SAT2s were good enough until my November date (which they did not see). I also put in very minimal effort into the essays and had little to no math/science related activities in high school! Because I feel like I have a better chance at MIT this really boosted my spirits!! Feeling happy!</p>
<p>Are Caltech’s RD decisions typically released before MIT’s, or was last year’s release date just an isolated event?</p>
