EA Notification Date?

What date were EA decisions released last year?

December 24th, I believe.

I just got an email from BC saying decisions will be emailed within the week of Dec.11th!! Assume they have fewer ea applicants this year, maybe??

We’ve got the same email today

Same here. Guess they want to release the same time as ED at other schools…

Interesting because the portal says they will be mailing the EA decisions by Dec 25. Now we receive an email that says they will be emailing decisions the week of Dec 11th. That seems to have been a fairly recent decision to move up their notification date. I am grateful for the earlier notification and agree with @BigPapiofthree that it is most likely an effort to align themselves with ED decisions at other schools. Lower number of applicants is highly unlikely @brendalin99. Good luck to everyone for the December decisions.

@montefiore and @brendalin99 were you an Early ACTION or Early Decision applicant? I did not get an email as an EA applicant so wondering who this went to.

I’m confused about BC’s decisions. I got the email saying the week of December 11th too, but it still says decisions are not posted online. Does that mean I will get an decision in an email on the week of Dec 11th and mail a little later on? So they do email decisions, just not post it on the application portal?

@suzyQ7 There is no early decision at BC. I applied EA too, and I got the email.

Also when do financial aid packages come out?

Thanks everyone, it was in the spam folder! Glad I saw this since the admission notification is also via email ( not the portal!) So now I made sure BC emails won’t go to spam.

@class0f2017 The email says they will send the decision by email. They will not post it online at the portal. Sorry, I do not know the answer to your question about FA.

Last year, my DD received her EA decision on 12/16. It was a PDF letter attached to the email. Financial aid was not included in that letter.

@riverboat Do you know how long after decisions the financial aid awards came out?

The financial aid information arrived in late January. I wish it had arrived sooner because DD needed to submit all her RD applications since we wouldn’t know if BC would be affordable until after RD deadlines.
