D applied RD. Got an email from washu yesterday saying they liked his essay/application. In addition the email says mentions the specific part of the essay that they liked.Did everyone get such an email or is this a good indicator that admission will be offered?
Ive honestly never heard of a college doing that. Let alone Wash U but I also applied and didn’t get an email. Goodluck! Seems like a good sign to me
My friend and I received an email like this. However, someone else I know did not. I believe it is WashU’s version of a likely letter 
Hi! Are all counselors doing this, or just some of them?
I didn’t receive one but that sounds like a great sign!
What region are you from?
Deep South
