<p>Does anyone know if early action application decisions are sent out all at once, or as they are made (sort of rolling)? Also, are merit offers sent with acceptance notices, or do they come later?</p>
<p>My D got a “likely” letter indicating that she was a good candidate for merit aid BEFORE her acceptance. She did get merit aid, and it came after the acceptance (but I don’t think it was very long after, maybe within a couple of weeks).</p>
<p>Did she apply EA or RD?</p>
<p>I applied EA and am REALLY hoping for merit aid though I didn’t get any sort of likely letter. I have a 2190 SAT and a 3.95 GPA along with 9 AP classes. I really need a big scholarship to be able to afford to go there.</p>
<p>I think intparent was talking about the D getting a likely letter last year, or some earlier year. I don’t imagine any likely letters have gone out yet, so soon after the EA deadline.</p>
<p>When do people find out about notification for EA due DEC 1?</p>
<p>The web site says notification will be by Feb. 1, but I wondered if people actually hear before that.</p>
<p>Sorry, haven’t checked the Dickinson threads in a few days 
R4emb is correct, this was an earlier year. She applied EA.</p>
<p>Raiderade, I was just looking at the website the other day. The largest merit aid scholarship they currently offer in any volume is worth $20,000 per year. The overall cost is over $50,000 per year, so that still leaves a pretty big gap that likely will not be covered by merit aid from D’son.</p>
<p>I don’t need a full ride. 10k per year is the minimum I need. Any more and I would feel really lucky.</p>
<p>does anyone know if they post the decisions on the website or mail them?</p>
<p>Should be posted online, followed by a letter.</p>
<p>have they posted decisions yet?</p>
<p>Im still waiting for EA decision…</p>
<p>I haven’t gotten mine either.</p>
<p>I’m an International student and I applied EA to Dickinson. I need a lot of financial aid so i don’t know if that was the smartest thing to do since I’ve heard that Dickinson doesn’t offer aid to International EA students. But I’m keeping fingers crossed…</p>
<p>Where online?</p>
<p>@archimom:
my friend who got accepted by Dickinson last year told me that is the same webpage where we check our application status.</p>
<p>Mine isnt posted yet either. the website says by feb 1, but does anyone know the exact date?</p>
<p>@TimXie thanks for the info on checking online! Good luck to you.</p>
<p>i applied EA and i havent heard back either</p>
