<p>My S just got an email saying the Decisions will be out by Mid April. This seems later than most other schools. Is this the norm for Pomona, or has there been a lot more applications this year?</p>
<p>thanks</p>
<p>I know, right?! I just got that email, too..... I mean, that doesn't even really seem fair, considering that we have to make decisions by May 1 and by withholding our notification it's making May 1 even more like a time bomb... But maybe they mean "by mid-April" as in, at the absolute latest... Still...</p>
<p>Any insights?</p>
<p>I got the email and wondered the same thing. I haven't visited it yet so if I get accepted I will literally have to jump on a plane right then before I can make a decision about anything. That's so frustrating! Oh well if I get accepted I will be so elated it won't matter. But I would like to know as well, when did they come last year?</p>
<p>That's weird. I didn't get an email like that or anything :( I know I got an email after I sent in my application saying decisions would be mailed April 5 which I thought was unfair then because most places decisions are in your hands by April 1. That would really suck if they made it even later.</p>
<p>yeah, i didn't get an email saying anything abt decisions in mid april. but after i applied i got an email saying that i would recieve my decision around early april, and on the princeton review website it says decisions are out on 04/10. we could always call and ask why the send it out so late.</p>
<p>huh. I wonder why some people got the email and others didn't...</p>
<p>^Well, the email that I got today that said decisions were out in mid-April had a subject of "Your Application is Complete".</p>
<p>Last year's acceptance were not that late. I wonder if it is a strategy to keep students from calling the office April 1st.</p>
<p>My D got an email in February with the subject line "Your Application is Complete." It also said "Notification of the Admissions Committee’s decision will be mailed in early April."</p>
<p>Why the difference, I wonder?</p>
<p>I just checked my saved emails and I got the same email as Zetesis' daughter. I have no idea why the change though...</p>
<p>Yeah, I never received the email either. The only one I received said early April. The website still says early April too.</p>
<p>One possible explanation for the mid-April statement was to allow for any postal delays. For the past four years, acceptance decisions have been received earlier rather than later because they're mailed priority mail. Declines are sent regular mail.</p>
<p>I received an email in mid February stating that my application was complete and my decision would come to me in "early April"</p>
<p>This could be because the email actually means something about the decision. (As in depending on the time of your email arrival you either got in or didn't or something)</p>
<p>But I doubt it.</p>
<p>Not too sure on this</p>
<p>This may be a silly question, but would the decisions be available on the personal accounts that Pomona set up for the students to track their applications? Doesn't really say anywhere on the website.</p>
<p>^^i second the above question.</p>
<p>All the stuff I've seen said decisions will only be mailed :(</p>
<p>oh poo... 10char</p>
<p>Maybe this is Pomona's way of avoiding over anxious phone calls from students and parents. If you think it won't come until mid April :( then you won't worry if it is not here on April 5.</p>
<p>I think the best way to see what's up is to see what happened with the ED I and EDII kids. Did they get emails that each said different things (i.e. some got emails that said early February and other got mid February) and what ultimately happened decisions wise to those people.</p>
<p>I don't remember getting any e-mails about when decisions were... (EDII)</p>
<p>Acceptances definitely do come earlier than rejections though.</p>
