Does Brown RD notification time matter?

<p>The 2015 Notification thread said there were three different times for notification via email, 5, 6, and 7 pm. Does this assignment mean something?</p>

<p>The assignment does not coincide with a certain decision. The university does this to ensure that the server does not crash when everyone is trying to check his/her decision. Don’t worry!</p>

<p>no.
10 char</p>

<p>These times definitely correlate with specific admission decisions. 5pm is rejected, 6 pm is waitlisted, 7 pm is deferred to class of 2016, and 8 pm is accepted.</p>

<p>Apparently, no one’s been accepted this year…</p>

<p>No</p>

<p>“Does it matter?” LOL: think of it. </p>

<p>Can you imagine text saying: “All the accepts will be notified at 5PM, the waitlisters at 6PM and the rejects at 7PM. You should log in at ___”</p>

<p>Boiled down, this would be exceedingly stupid, no?</p>

<p>People are getting OVER-sensitive now.</p>

<p>Someone on the Harvard forum said usually the acceptance letters go out earlier. It makes sense. Another wrote:

<p>Is this for real as to significance of the log-on time?</p>

11

<p>No–it’s been stated other forums that students who got likely letters got a variety of times.</p>

<p>Personally I think the times are connected to region. It seems to me that most people will be getting their Brown decision at 5:00 their home time (all the times were given in EST).
No idea for internationals…</p>

<p>You guys are seriously obsessing over minutiae now. You might as well get the Ouija board out. </p>

<p>C’mon. Just chill – it’ll be over soon.</p>
