Countdown?

<p>I read on the Barnard Facebook page ( office of admissions one) that decisions will be mailed out starting the third week of March. THE WAIT IS UNBEARABLE! Anyone else feel the same?</p>

<p>Exactly the same! I think that in a few days I’m gonna start counting hours. To be honest, I have even made a countdown calendar and tear off one page every day. It makes the waiting a tiny bit more bearable. =)</p>

<p>I wish schools (Barnard included) would just give us an exact notification date already… it would make me feel better! Not to mention counting down would be easier :P</p>

<p>I agree! Also, I think that schools should just release decisions once they are made. Why make us wait so long!</p>

<p>Wait, so Barnard only releases it via snail mail? Not e-mail?</p>

<p>Seems like it for the US students. However, they notify the international applicants via e-mail, too (thank god, otherwise it would be taking ages to get it all the way here to Prague). =)</p>

<p>Yep, Barnard notifies accepted students via Express Mail, and all others via regular mail. And as MisaMysa says, international applicants do get e-mails. In the past, accepted students have been able to sign in to the accepted students portal on the Barnard website before getting their official packages, but I would hate to rely on that. I would imagine that it would be possible to be unable to sign in and still be accepted…but NOT likely to be able to sign and and be rejected. </p>

<p>Any way, it’s one area that I do wish Barnard would leap into the computer age, already! I truly don’t get their reason for continuing to use snail mail to send notice of admission…</p>

<p>Really? Decisions will be released this week???</p>

<p>Nah, I think they meant third <em>full</em> week of March. So, next week!</p>

<p>I’m legit DYING.</p>

<p>I would guess, based on previous years’ experiences, that the decisions might be mailed out towards the END of that third week in March. Meaning some time around the 23rd. </p>

<p>Just a guess, though.</p>

<p>when were last year’s decisions mailed out?</p>

<p>Internationals started posting results on 3/26 and US residents on 3/28. I assume they were mailed out on Friday, March 25th last year. </p>

<p>So I am guessing maybe they will be mailed out around the 23rd this year??</p>
