Haverford 2019 RD Thread

For what it’s worth, the only thing that came in the mail today was a coupon for 20% off at Bed, Bath and Body Works (anyone want it?).

It takes 2 days to post something from Philly to DC, which leads me to believe that they were too late on Tuesday.

interestingly, my kid (foil) makes that THREE potential Haverford fencers that are waiting… and waiting…

@CoreyDad - I know. Today’s mail consisted of (1) Verizon bill and a nice merit award from Brandeis. Come on Haverford!

Perhaps the decisions are being delivered by some of those cute squirrels that you see on the Coop windows. The bad news is that squirrels are, by all accounts, not as good as carrier pigeons when it comes to mail delivery.

Accepted! Received mail 15 mins ago. PA

Got the letter today. Waitlisted. Disappointing news offset by notification today from our flagship state university that he’s been awarded a full 4- yr scholarship. Best of luck to everyone still waiting to hear from Haverford.

Was it first class mail?

And congrats @wuj1998

@confin15 Yes, first class mail.

Thanks!

@PennAlumParent - I’m sorry and happy for you at the same time! Being awarded a full 4- yr scholarship is amazing! Congratulations!

What states are you from, those who have received their decisions?

Still waiting in Maryland.

@PennAlumParent - Sorry about the waitlist. And Congrats on the Banneker Key! If your son was waitlisted I have even less hope for my DS.

Thanks. Haverford is the top choice for my son. He has been declined by Swarthmore(EDII) and Middlebury. The news today really light up the whole family:-) Best wishes to everyone!

Thanks all for the kind comments. We’re thrilled with Maryland’s offer and he’s likely to take it. We haven’t yet seen merit offers from the other schools which accepted him but we’re pretty certain none can beat a full scholarship.

Congrats @wuj1998‌!

The letter just got here (Potomac, Maryland)!

Did you get in?

DS was waitlisted. Last year 831 students were offered a place on the waitlist, 368 accepted and 5 enrolled. DS has other good options and has not decided if he will take a place on the list, but time to move on.

@Mom24boys I’m sorry to hear that.
