They might release by Friday 3/9, although any date between then and 3/15 is a likely.
And there is an admitted students weekend just in case anyone is wondering.

Anyone heard anything about decision day? Still thinking this week?
Rest assured, when decisions come out, this board will light up.

I called and asked if they would be released this week or next week (when I will be gone and unable to check), and told me that it would be neither week, but on or before April 1st. I am pretty sure that they tell students this every year though. We will just have to wait until they give us an official date because they do not even know as of right now.
@matt4isu doing god’s work. Thanks bro
@billybobby54 Maybe God will repay me with an acceptance. #praying #desperate #needablessing
If not, I might go Pastafarian.
@matt4isu so they aren’t coming out in the upcoming week? Or do you suspect it was more or less a general “the website says on or by April 1st” response?
@IntroxMuff1389 I am guessing it was a general answer based on the website. The lady was being politely rude if that makes sense. From what I know, as soon as colleges have decisions done and ready, they send them right away. I would assume that they are nearly done and will be sent out, hopefully, within the next week. We will just have to wait for an official date.
I believe last year they were released on March 15th, is it likely that it’ll be around the same time this year?
Hopefully it’ll be this week or the next.
Chances are they got a record number of applicants, so they might take longer to get through them all.
Maybe. I’m still holding out for this week or the next. Fingers crossed!

I haven’t been able to show much interest like going to college fairs or visiting the campus because I’m in another country, but I did apply to the merit scholarships if that counts.
I always think, How could they not know when they will be done?
We went through this with ED and now we wait for RD. Don’t get married to a date. Just assume a later date and be surprised when it comes out earlier. Love how other schools send out a email with a date, but I also realize WashU might not find that convenient.
That ship sailed for me, @ParentFL when @HoosierDaddy1995 showed up at the party this week with massive optimism!!! lol!! I am shooting for Thurs or Fri! !!
@Winky1 what’s wrong with today?
