<p>Does anyone know if or when early writes are mailed? When have they been received in other years?</p>
<p>Also, does anyone know around what week RD applicants are notified of their decisions?</p>
<p>Thanks in advance!</p>
<p>D got an early write 7 years ago around early - mid March if I remember correctly. I would not expect the RD acceptances to go out much earlier than end March.</p>
<p>What is an early write? Thanks!</p>
<p>It’s the same thing as a likely letter.</p>
<p>Actually, I think an early write is an actual admissions offer, so it is slightly different from a likely letter. Though in practice there is not much difference.</p>
<p>I did not know that. Thanks for the clarification, dadx3.</p>
<p>My D, now a sophomore, received one about a month before RD letters went out. It came in a regular thin envelope and it was a very nice and definite acceptance letter. Thinking that Swat was writing because something might be missing from her file, I went ahead and opened it so that I could call her at school. It was a Friday and I figured that the sooner she could take care of whatever was missing, the better. I started crying like an idiot when I realized it was an acceptance letter…</p>
<p>I received mine today! =) So, I guess that they send early letters out around the beginning to mid March. Good luck everyone.</p>
<p>Hey I got one too. I’m actually surprised, since I’m pretty much the most average applicant ever. Good luck to all. :-)</p>
<p>so, congrats to the early writes! Where are you from?</p>
<p>I got one today as well! And I’m in north Jersey.</p>
<p>Northeast ohio ;-)</p>
<p>briguy-You must not be too average–saw you got the full ride at OSU! </p>
<p>Congratulations on both!</p>
<p>Congratulations from an EDII’er and possible classmate–come to Swat! :D</p>
<p>i received mine today!! (i live in NJ). it was in a little envelope so i got a nice surprise when i opened it! congrats to everyone else</p>
<p>haha thanks wildwood; thats just my own candid assessment of myself. 'grats to all</p>
<p>I got mine today too! it was completely unexpected. congrats to everyone!</p>
<p>I also got an early write. I look forward to meeting some of you guys at the admitted student days next month!</p>
<p>General FYI, all Swat acceptances come in small envelopes. Though mine was kind of bulky from having the FA handbook folded up as well.</p>
<p>I’ll also be attending RTT, the admitted students event, so maybe I’ll meet some of you in person!</p>
<p>Got mine today. My mother was talking to someone about where I had been admitted today and accidentally said Swarthmore. What a coincidence.</p>
