Fordham EA Class of 2020 Discussion Thread

Was the likely letter a physical letter or did anyone get an email?? I got an email Nov 23rd from Patricia Peek saying I would be offered admission but the actual decision would come out Dec 20th. I don’t think I got a letter in the mail. For reference 2120 SAT, average e.c., 4.0 weighted gpa.

@julia1611 nope, just the email.

So, are only EA candidate’s being sent the “Likely” email? I’m applied ED and did not get a likely letter. However I got an email from Patricia Peek tonight saying to be sure to be ready to check my App portal on or about the 20th? I’m hoping for the best.

Yes. From what we can tell, only a small number of EA got likely letters. No ED applicants received them. Check your mail starting tomorrow. Decisions are probably coming very soon.

So is it like we could receive an admission decision notification email anytime from now to December 20th at any point?
WOW this would be an absolute torture since you don’t which day you will just get that email telling you your admission decision is now available online…

Yes. But as last year decisions came out on Dec 15th, more than likely it will be early next week.

@emilyskates Me too!! 34 ACT, NMSF too

I’m really worried that maybe I messed something up with the app (accidentally put the wrong school name in or something?)

Any chances people might hear back today? I know they usually release results after 3:00 pm.

I don’t know… where did you hear it from? Any clue? Why today after 3:00? @juliannebeg

It could happen, but I wouldn’t bet on it. It’s the weekend, so I doubt that admissions will want to deal with a flood of questions on Monday from applicants who got notice on Friday. I would bet more on the middle of the week. I don’t have solid information, just my guess. It’s admissions, so anything can happen.

I got an email saying I that I will be accepted about a week ago.

I am wishing that we are getting the decisions on Monday after 3 pm. That’s when they got them last year. The Monday after they got the email.

Hopefully Monday

I checked last years thread. They said if you have a “X Mid-term report”, you are deferred. Is it real?

@fiona1997, what do you mean, somewhere on the portal?

@CAMidwestMom yes it is on the portal. Means that you are deferred and they are waiting for more grades… I don’t know. Someone said that in last year’s thread. He/she said it will appear on the portal about 2 days before the decisions are released. Don’t know if this is real, I thought they require every applicant to submit mid-term grades.

Well, I have no idea, but I would be careful reading too much into anything at this point. I truly feel like this likely letter business has really added to the overall anxiety of this process. I know that is not their concern, but it really has annoyed me and I don’t think they are considering how connected everyone is and how everyone will know about them.

From what I’ve heard, they have been doing this likely letter thing for years…

Oh here we go again… We don’t have that on our portal. Anyone else not have it?

Not my D either. Frustrated. I can barely keep up with this anymore.
