<p>Has anyone received an early write letter from Pomona? (RD applicants, please.)
Thanks!</p>
<p>What's an early write letter?</p>
<p>An early write letter is a "marketing tool" of sorts. They are sent out after the early decision applicants but before the regular decision applicants, to give their "first string" RD applicants a heads-up that they will be accepted. They are supposed to take the heat off and worry and process and catch the interest of these well qualified applicants. They use early writes with the hope that the best of their applicant pool will keep their school in the front of their thoughts...and perhaps choose their school. Hope that makes sense... ; )</p>
<p>We are in NH too... Southern NH! Good luck to you!</p>
<p>Thanks, yes it does. Southern NH here as well!</p>
<p>Is this the same as a "likely letter"?</p>
<p>Yes, basically - never heard of Pomona doing them though.</p>
<p>Pomona doesn't do early writes.</p>
<p>Thanks! We are waiting with bated breath since this is my D's favorite! I had a hunch they did not write them.</p>
