We received a Fed Ex notification but nothing from the school today that a package would be delivered by Saturday, but it says shipped out of Berlin CT??? Anyone else receive a fed ex notification? If so where was it sent from?
Nothing here
hi - anxiously waiting to hear back RD…Lafayette is my top school, I fell in love with it. I am a pretty good student and I showed great interest in the school…any ideas when we’ll hear back?
@user_784525 See post #44.
Remember guys, decisions are sent via Fedex only to those who are offered admission.
Nothing here either. DC did get into Boston College yesterday and American the day before. So far she got into every school she applied. We are very proud. Waiting on Lafayette and George Washington. No financial aid but merit scholarships at most so far. Hoping she gets in and gets the Marquis Fellowship. That would seal the deal. I know the chances are slim but I am not giving up hope.
Nothing here. My son was waitlisted at BC yesterday. So far only accepted at UMASS Amherst, Trinity, and Muhlenberg (huge merit) so I’m not very hopeful anymore. Sigh.
Are you sure this is true? Do they not send any rejection letters?
Yes, I am. Rejection decisions are only available thru the portal.
An important point of clarification in an already stressful time. Lafayette College’s RD notification for domestic applicants is not via Fed Ex, but rather through the USPS. Offers of admission are being mailed today, so some folks may hear on Saturday, March 21, others early to mid-week, next week. We anticipate all admission decisions to be accessible on the Admissions portal by the end of the day on Tuesday, March 24.
Thanks. I suppose, this means that even those who get acceptance letters, will in most likelihood find out from the portal before they receive the letter.
We will only find out through the portal since my daughter’s mail will go to her school. Good Luck to everyone as it appears that results will be available and posted over a course of several days.
If this helps, my son was admitted to Lafayette ED2 about a month ago. The original notification date was Feb 15. The school sent him an email on Feb 11 telling him he was admitted. The package was mailed the same day via USPS and arrived 2 days later on Feb 13 (we live in NJ).

@Sarrip Has your D tried to contact Laf admissions and ask them to send the decision to the home address? I’m sure they would understand that her boarding school is closed.
And good luck!
@LeopardGuy Thank you for the clarification. I have a question for you. Are there students that get the Marquis Fellowship that we’re not invited to participate in the dynamic assessment program?
No. Although one is eligible for the Marquis Scholarship and the Marquis Awards even if they are not invited to the Dynamic Assessment, for the Marquis Fellowship, being invited and taking part in the Dynamic Assessment is a prerequisite.
@happy1 - thank you for the suggestion. I did very recently send an email but I know that they are dealing with their own set of challenges right now. If we have to wait another few days for it to be on the portal we will survive…barely…but we will. 
They just posted on social media that they mailed decisions today! Their Instagram is @lafcoladmissions
I guess we will be waiting until Tuesday then. I saw a picture of the envelope. It’s big and says congratulations on it.
