<p>Anyone know when these will come out, and how they send? Will they be online?</p>
<p>They're by mail. I think last year's applicants got their letters around December 10th-12th, so we shouldn't have much longer to wait!</p>
<p>good luck everyone who is waiting!</p>
<p>i wish i had applied ED as well. :( gotta wait til February!</p>
<p>If it is like what happened in the past three years, a yes will be in a large white envelope.</p>
<p>Good luck to all!</p>
<p>I'm applying RD, even though Carl is my #1.</p>
<p>Does anyone know exactly when Carleton mails the letters?</p>
<p>For the last two years, the first person to get their letter got it on the second Monday of December (12/10 and 12/11), but for us that would be the 8th, which (sadly) seems a tad early.</p>
<p>holy cow this is nerve-racking. youre saying theres a chance ill find out monday, but definitely by friday?</p>
<p>If the applications are up this year it could take a little longer though.</p>
<p>I don't know. Since Carleton only had ~400 ED applications last year, any change numbers-wise probably won't be enough to affect the mailing dates (I hope!).</p>
<p>I just wish I knew for sure when I'll get the letter. I think I'm starting to scare my mailman.</p>
<p>are you guys sure itll come by mail first?</p>
<p>The website says "Mailing of Admissions Decisions on or Before..." and it's always been by mail in years past, so that's probably how we'll find out.</p>
<p>Nothing today. :(</p>
<p>Nothing today either. Anyone else getting anxious?</p>
<p>I'm an alum admissions rep and I think I remember from last year getting an email that the status section of "my" prospects would be unavailable while they notified students. I haven't gotten a message like that, so I'm thinking they may not have mailed the letters (and started updating the website) yet. I'm checking several times a day, LOL, so I'll post if I see anything.<br>
Two nieces went through this recently. One, in '03, heard on the 10th and the other, in '06, heard on the 12th. If there is an uptick in early apps, I'm guessing we'll hear later rather than sooner:(</p>
<p>Fingers crossed for all of you who love the idea of Carleton enough to be this anxious. My daughter was in this position two years ago--though for regular decision. Good luck!</p>
<p>Thanks for keeping us updated, bingle. Do you think the application status check portion of the Carleton website will be disabled for the ED applicants when they mail the letters? Does anyone from last year remember whether or not they took those pages down?</p>
<p>I didn't like the idea of online notification at first. But now I think it would give me a little more peace of mind to know that I would find out on Xday, December XXth at X:XX PM EST like applicants at some schools. I've been home sick for the last two days, so I haven't had anything to do but wait around for the mail to arrive...hence the escalating anxiety... :)</p>
<p>so we'll find out on friday?</p>
<p>Where did you hear that, Photochopper?</p>
<p>thats roughly what bingle said on the previous page i think.</p>
<p>Any word today --- anyone?</p>
