@villa2024 - We received notification of being a finalist last month I believe. We just returned from the Scholarship event this past weekend. We are waiting to hear from them regarding whether or not we will receive a scholarship and if so which one.
Congratulations!!!
Did your son apply ED or RD?
My daughter applied RD.
Isn’t March 19th a Thursday?
Yes, it is. By the time I realized my error, the time to edit the post was over. The post should read:
Acceptance letters will be sent out via Fed-Ex, on Thursday, 19th March. The results will be posted on the portal on Tuesday, 24th March, around 3:00-3:30 pm.
Friday can’t come soon enough. I am hoping DC gets in and with enough scholarships to make Lafayette a possibility.
@holychild - I will keep my fingers crossed for you. I’m hoping my daughter gets enough merit also because FA will not be plentiful. I really fell in love with Lafayette while we were at the Marquis program.
Marquis finalist, here! I got in touch with my admission counselor who does a lot with the award program, and he says letters are anticipated to be mailed out tomorrow, Friday (3/20) by USPS, meaning that the earliest they’d actually arrive in mailboxes is probably early next week (letter will also include merit aid award). He also says that decisions and merit aid notifications will be available in the portal in, quote, “the latter part of next week.” I’m awaiting them just as anxiously as you all are 
just thought I’d share this update.
That is actually disappointing to hear. I thought they were mailing decisions today by overnight mail and we would get those decisions on Friday. Decisions in portal by Tuesday. I can’t believe we have to wait yet another few days.
@Sarrip Thank you. DC visited twice and liked it a lot. We like the proximity to home, size and opportunities. Money will be a deciding factor for us.
@holychild - We are about an hour away also. DD has an offer of full tuition and fees at another college that she likes but Lafayette is the total package as far as I am concerned so I hope it works out but it needs to be the total package for DD.
would we get a notification if anything were mailed to us?
I suppose, if the notification is sent via FedEx, that you would receive a tracking number.
@ Marquis Finalists ( @Sarrip @colinnahs2020
Were you notified for being selected as a Marquis finalist by FedEx or by USPS? My son received his notification via FedEx.
@OverseasFather - My daughter received an email on January 30th.
@OverseasFather are you talking about recently, or back when we were invited? I got an email and a package in early Feb when notified I was invited, but I have not received any USPS or Fedex notification for decision letter.
Did she not receive a physical package via FedEX or USPS or any other means? My son received an email on January 31st (US date) with the Subject: “Marquis Award Finalist Notification - Copy of Information to be FedExed on 1/31/20”. The physical notification arrived via FedEx on Monday, March 3rd.
I am referring to the invitation to the Marquis Dynamic Assessment. Did you receive that via FedEx or via USPS?
Typically they have always mailed it USPS on Friday, so I would imagine it will follow the same pattern. The results should be on the portal next Wednesday.
@OverseasFather yes, I received the same email with same subject line, and the invitation package was sent via FedEx.
Since she is in boarding school all of her packages are sent to her address at the school instead of home so she usually emails me everything and shares packages when we visit or she comes home. I do believe that there was a package. As a result we may be a little behind in receiving notification since we will not get a mailed package to our home :-(.
