<p>Hey guys I'm feeling very anxious right now. Congrats to the RD applicants who have already got admitted, but how did you guys know the decision?? I saw no change on my "Admission Checklist" and received no email about the release of the result! So I have no clue of when and where to check the decision! Any kind soul to help? ><!!! THXTHX!</p>

<p>They got early write letters.</p>

<p>If you’re in the US, you’ll get a letter in the mail, anyway. No worrying about when and where to check required. (:</p>

<p>Go to your USPS mailbox. :slight_smile: Last year decisions were mailed out on 3/25, which was a Thursday. Best guess based on past years is, depending on where you live, anytime at the very end of this week or the beginning of next week.</p>

<p>What about for internationals? How are they notified and does anybody know a probable notification date?</p>

6

<p>i just called the office of admissions and the guy said theyre mailing them out either thursday or friday!!!
ahhh!!!</p>

<p>oh, and its only mail. nothing online or by portal…</p>

<p>im assuming it might be different for internationals… or you might just have to wait longer… :/</p>

<p>Putturani, international decisions are sent by both postal mail and email. (:

<p>Thanks suitcases. So it’s coming out really soon! Ahh good luck everyone!</p>

<p>Well, they haven’t been mailed out yet, because I’m international and I didn’t receive an email yet.
Or maybe (i read this somewhere), they mail first and email later to keep it fair? :confused:</p>

<p>Swarthmore said they would sent out letters in “late March”. Best of luck to everyone :)</p>

11

<p>they were sent out yesterday.</p>

12

<p>I was just rejected by mail ): I’m from Pennsylvania, by the way.</p>

<p>Good luck everyone! It said in the letter that they received 6,500 applications and only admitted 378 students. VERY stiff competition this year in college admissions. I was very surprised</p>

13

<p>Just to correct again for anyone reading this thread. They are targeting a class size of 378. They will probably have accepted 900+ applicants in order to meet that goal.</p>

14

<p>omg that means ill get something in the mail tomorrow!!!
ahhh im so scared.</p>

15

<p>I was so NOT confident especially since I waited for RD. BUT a big acceptance envelope arrived in the mail today. It says “{This is the FAT one}” on the back flap. It included the FA award too. Postmarked March 24. </p>

<p>Fingers crossed for the rest of you guys!</p>

16

<p>Are internationals not receiving any email then? This is horrible. :frowning:
It’s not fair to make us wait so much when they promised to email…
It’s probably going to take ages to reach. Atleast a week.
I’m so very scared.</p>

<p>Congratulations DaVinci!</p>

<p>Congrats DaVinci! Where do you live?</p>

<p>@alexpappas13 I’m guessing (based on Swarthmore’s enrollment of ~1525) that they wanted a class size of 378, but admitted a significant number more. Not everyone that’s admitted will attend (last year, Swarthmore’s yield was 40%)</p>

<p>Has Swarthmore sent any E-mails to international students yet? Still waiting :/</p>

<p>will mails for international student be sent by snail mail or express?</p>
