Notification Date for class of '16

<p>Hi guys! Do you have any idea when we are most likely to get our admission decision. And how will we be informed-by e-mail or portal?</p>

<p>An acknowledgement email - I think - stated that they “expect to mail RD decisions by March 20th”. As for whether or not they email, not very clear on that.</p>

<p>For EA my son received an email telling him his decision was available on his portal but he had to go there and log in to see the decision.</p>

<p>^ I got in EA and they sent me an email with a link to my decision. There is no portal.</p>

<p>By email. Please check your spam folder and junk folder, my son’s ended up in spam folder</p>

<p>Does Caltech notify us about the decision date few days ago before the decisions are actually posted?</p>

<p>I think for EA it was like one day in advance.</p>

<p>Are the RD decisions coming out today as one of the threads predicts?</p>

<p>huh? I would find that highly doubtful. I’m thinking the 20th is likely more accurate.</p>

<p>In so many threads, it is written that CalTech decision will be mailed on March 6th. Is it true? I am desperately waiting for the official decision date. When will the admission officers let us know the date?</p>

<p>Probably left over from a previous admissions season. People copy and paste things all the time.</p>

<p>The last two years, decisions were released on March 12th and March 13th, both Saturdays. If the pattern continues, we might get our decisions as early as this Saturday (March 10).</p>

<p>Now that the MIT decision date has been officially announced (3/14 6:28 PM), I think the Saturday pattern should hold. Hopefully, it will.
Also, does anyone know if they’ve already mailed the decisions?</p>

<p>Isn’t the initial notification online?</p>

<p>I just called, and the person I spoke with said that they will send out decisions by email “by mid-March.” Good luck, guys!</p>

<p>Last year they announced the decision date on March 8th. Why are they not releasing the date till now?</p>

<p>Maybe they just aren’t ready yet. :/</p>
