I agree. I was strictly speaking admission chances.
I believe for the incense to work, you have to use the right holistic incense that is concocted specially for that college. If one burns an incense meant for Harvard while chanting MIT, it actually reduces the chances of admission. So please use caution in using this precise craft.

Someone above said they called admissions and was told decisions will be ON Feb. 1st due to the increase in application numbers.
They charge $75 per application-maybe they could use that money to pay the overtime of application readers to get this done sooner? lol

I would like to point out a post I just saw on the A2C subreddit.
Looking at EDII and how close to Feb. 1st the decisions typically come out, I donât think itâd make much sense for EA to be released and have EDII a day or two later.
I still have a bit of hope for today

Will do! From CT here! I think itâs likely going to be the 1st though⊠They changed their whole site to say âno later than february 1stâ when it used to say âby february 1stâ. Who knows though

In my mind, âno later than feb 1stâ and âby Feb 1stâ have nearly identical meaning

Standardized tests are far from objective which is why they are all going TO. Data has shown that privileged students with support and prep classes do far better than others. Affordability of taking the test many times, etc. also play a huge role in success. Access to testing sites and multiple sites too.

I entirely agree but I have no clue why they would change the wording unless they previously planned for decisions to release before Feb 1st and now they are releasing Feb 1st.
I feel like Feb 1st is so late⊠I donât think they have ever released it that late before. Just hoping itâs not true!

FYI, Last year it said by âFeb 1stâ for ED but the decisions werenât released until Feb 2 due to âunprecedented number of applicationsâ so I would not be surprised if same thing happens to EA this year.
As a side note, sonâs portal updated at 3:43pm with new status on financial aid doc info, so it doesnât look the portal app update with decisions will be today.
Same here. For one school, no one was accepted. For another, maybe one was accepted over the past five years. Last year, 11 applied and all were rejected.

Hmm 
Donât those two phrases mean exactly the same thing?

It is ambiguous. By February 1st could mean midnight 1/31 or midnight 2/1, although in more common usage it means the latter.
