Early Action Class of 2019

<p>It was nice of them.</p>

<p>Here was the letter they sent to him a little over a month ago:</p>

<p>Thank you for completing your application for admission to SMU! We are excited you are considering SMU as your college choice. We see that you submitted your application before our Early Action extended deadline of November 9, but have indicated that you are applying for Regular Decision.</p>

<p>Now that you have submitted your application, we expect that you are eager to receive your admission decision. Because you completed your application early, we are moving your application forward to be considered with the non-binding Early Action group, so that you can receive an admission decision by the end of December.</p>

<p>If, for any reason, you would prefer us to hold your application for review with the Regular Decision group in January, please let us know by responding to this message.</p>

<p>We sincerely hope that SMU remains at the top of your college search list, and look forward to learning more about you through your application.</p>

<p>Wondering if today could be the day for EA letters :)</p>

<p>My best guess is we’ll see some more early decisions hit this week as the mail makes its way across the country, then the early actions will hit a bit later. Maybe late this week or early next week. They did say we’d hear by the end of the year, so they will for sure want to mail before heading out on Christmas break!</p>

<p>@CATDECAL Exactly. Best advice (and the hardest)? Be patient! SMU will be doing their best to push out their decisions as quickly as possible! </p>

<p>I, too, thought 12/15 was the date for EA. Keeping fingers crossed for my daughter!</p>

<p>I just spoke with the Admissions Office. Very courteous but standard response that all ED/EA letters would go out starting this week and should be received by Dec 31st.</p>

<p>I just received my acceptance letter in the mail!!! I applied ED and live in Manhattan! Good luck to everyone!</p>

<p>Congrats @kitkat631!!!</p>

<p>Do they mail out ED first? I applied EA and live in the CT, so should I be hearing soon? </p>

<p>Congrats! @kitkat631‌ !! Please dont forget to post your stats on the other thread - SMU Class of 2019 EA/ED Notification Thread</p>

<p>Do they upload your admission status to your portal or is it just in the mail?</p>

<p>@8238college‌ SMU doesn’t have an online portal so its mail only. big red envelope!!</p>

<p>@8238college, they may update online EVENTUALLY, but they are big about making sure the letter is the first thing you get.</p>

<p>I just got in!!! yay!!!</p>

<p>Congrats @peyton925! If you don’t mind share some stats, your city, and any scholarship offer you may have received so we can live vicariously through you!</p>

<p>Haven’t seen any EA decisions yet, have we?</p>

<p>My daughter Just got in !! We are on Long Island , ED … Good Luck to all EA ,</p>

<p>EA still has not mailed out but I am betting students will start hearing back on decisions by the end of this week.</p>

<p>Thanks Peruna for the update!</p>

<p>I emailed the admissions department and they said ea will Mail out tomorrow. </p>
