<p>What good schools give likely letters</p>
<p>duke, yale, dartmouth, and cornell (?)</p>
<p>i know that swarthmore and amherst send out "early write" letters that basically tell you that you are accepted.</p>
<p>wellesley...</p>
<p>when do these schools normally give them out? around now?</p>
<p>harvard gives as well, for athletic recruits.</p>
<p>stanford gives them for athletic recruits, and also gives "admissions approval" letters to outstanding candidates.</p>
<p>UNC-CH sends a bunch.</p>
<p>i got my early write from swarthmore in early to mid march i believe. my friend who got one from amherst got hers around the same time.</p>
<p>Wellesley in the end of February, but you have to indicate on your application if you want to get a(n) (un)likely letter or not.</p>
<p>Williams College does this as well.</p>
<p>Last year, I got notification of my acceptance to Amherst on March 3rd, to Williams on March 17th or so.</p>
<p>On the topic of athletics, now how do athletes find time to both play sports, travel, and study for their exams in college? Geez, what do they major in and do they actually graduate or are they in college sports in hopes of becoming drafted (or something of that nature/ I'm not a sports person) into the big leagues i.e. NFL, NBA?</p>
<p>im only talking about likely letters for NONatheletes</p>
<p>I'll verify Cornell</p>
<p>My friend got one from Stanford and Princeton, but he is an athlete recruit.</p>
<p>I got one from Stanford...I wish</p>
<p>friend got a non-athletic one from stanford.</p>
<p>I was told by a student who applied ED II to my institution that they had already been admitted to Stanford, though they applied RD and not EA...they had their financial aid package and everything...</p>
<p>How is that possible?</p>
<p>I'm not sure, but when I asked about his financial aid packet, it was almost exactly what we put together for them...</p>
