<p>Hi, I stumbled across something from a post back from 2008 saying that legacy applicants get notification of rejection before other applicants find out. Was it ever true, and is it still?</p>
<p>I have not heard anything about this before. It seems unlikely, however, as it would be significantly more effort on the part of Rice with no gain for anyone.</p>
<p>Antarius – since you’re a senior member, can you tell me if, when the admissions people send out notifications, are you notified either way? I keep thinking that we won’t hear anything and won’t know… :)</p>
<p>Yes. They will give you a Yes, No or Deferred. You won’t be left in the dark.</p>
<p>Thanks Antarius. I’m a legacy applicant and was just hoping that an empty email inbox yesterday was a good sign. Ah well. :)</p>
<p>Good Luck!</p>
<p>They do. my sis found out two weeks before regular applicants</p>
<p>^^ Interesting. Not sure why they do that though. </p>
<p>Thanks for the info.</p>
