<p>Today I got a likely letter dated the 14th!
I had never heard of Brown doing this and I was curious if anyone else out there got one?</p>
<p>I'm not an athlete either, at least not at the recruitment level.</p>
<p>S2 received one today. Not athletic at all.</p>
<p>wow, congratulations! I'm extremely jealous me being deferred and all but I'm sure you guys deserved it! So do you plan to matriculate?</p>
<p>just got my likely letter in the mail today! (not an athlete)</p>
<p>can you guys post your stats? Also, did any of you aply for PLME?</p>
<p>Thanks!

Good ECs, I do what I love and try to do it well, nothing world class though lol.
I didn't have any particular hook, but I've had a very good teacher/counselor/student relationship.</p>
<p>I haven't been on any overnights yet, but I really think Brown is my top choice!
Hope this helps anyone who may be awaiting one!</p>
<p>Those who received letters, where are you guys from? I know some schools sent out likely letters or early notifications for students farther away (giving them more time to plan visits, etc).</p>
<p>Just wondering if that was a factor.</p>
<p>I'm from Maine, so not too too far really.</p>
<p>one from california here.</p>
<p>from NJ (private school)</p>

lots of ECs, with concentration in math/science stuff
i'm not too special though as i was deferred from Yale</p>
<p>watchyourstep ^^^ I don't understand why you wouldn't think you are special. Being deferred from Yale is certainly not indicative of being sub par. In fact, there are often kids who are rejected from Brown and accepted to Yale. Moreover, there are kids who are accepted to both but choose Brown. Be happy about it. You're implying that Brown is inferior to Yale when, in fact, they are simply very different schools of the highest calibur.</p>

Congratulations to the OP's son! I also came home yesterday to find out that a certain letter from Brown was waiting for me. I thought I would get waitlisted since I have not shown a drop of demonstrated interest (have not visited, called, or emailed the admissions office, even missed my interview and had to do one february 29 or March 1 on the phone). But I also don't have any intentions now of going to Brown.

<p>Only on CC would people be more focused on likely letters than acceptance letters.</p>
<p>billyman, are you a URM?</p>
