i’m in a similar situation to you. i requested an early notification this week because some of my schools (Barnard and UNC) both want a deposit from me this Friday. I spoke with someone in the admissions office and faxed as well as emailed my acceptance letters. I have not gotten an email or any confirmation that my request was even received. have you heard anything from Brown admissions on your early notification? </p>
<p>@transferapp11 and @philgirl
how long did it take them to get back to you on your early notification? did you have to call up to the admissions office and ask or did they just immediately send you an email? </p>
<p>Thanks for all your help! And I’m excited to see the decisions!</p>
<p>Hey, like I mentioned earlier, I found out within a day of faxing my acceptance letter. They emailed and said that they had convened earlier that day and decided that my acceptance was highly unlikely. In your case, the delay/lack of response could either be good (in that there is heavy deliberation), or it might just be that they cant do early decisions at this point (it says somewhere on the website that you are supposed to do it with 2 weeks until the deadline to spare, right? Can’t quite remember…) and the office is crazy swamped. Good luck to you!</p>
<p>Has anyone’s status changed from “Fall 2011” to “Spring 2011”?</p>
<p>wellesleygirl, did yours change? mine still says fall 2011</p>
<p>Mine still says “Fall 2011”…</p>
<p>I hope they mail/post decisions sooner than Friday!</p>
<p>Still “Fall 2011” here.</p>

I called Brown to ask about it, and they said my application was still being looked at and that they would try to let me know at some point this week. So yeah, at this point, just waiting it out till Friday probably.</p>
<p>So excited/nervous to hear back!!</p>
<p>Mine is still Fall 2011. I read on last year’s thread that some were changing to Spring…</p>
<p>There was a question on the supplement I think that asked if you also want to be considered as a transfer for Spring 2011 if you get rejected for Fall. Maybe they moved everyone’s who noted yes to that question from Fall to Spring, but that would suggest you got rejected already. Don’t take my word, though. It’s just a guess.</p>
<p>Yeah, mine also has not changed although I did check off Spring. Anybody else check off the option for Fall semester abroad? That would be awesome.</p>
<p>I checked off Spring admission as well :)</p>
<p>wellesley girl, were the people who had theirs change to spring last year then accepted for the spring semester? might be interesting to see that.</p>
<p>Yeah, it seems like that was the case. A lot of people on the forum who noted that their status was changed to Spring were admitted for that semester.</p>
<p>Still waiting for my decision. I wonder if Brown has mailed them yet. Doubt it.</p>
<p>They might be mailed out today. Probably tomorrow though. The man that I talked to on the phone from admissions yesterday said that they’d have them mailed out by the end of the week! I think they were mailed out on Thursday last year.</p>
<p>I need to stop obsessing over Brown decisions and study for finals haha. </p>
<p>I hope they mail them out today! Means it’ll probably be in my mailbox when I get back to my school.</p>
<p>Like I’ve said (I think this is my third time), last year they were mailed on Wednesday. In 2009 they were mailed on Wednesday. In 2008 they were mailed on Wednesday. Maybe they need the extra days though because they got so many more applicants? I don’t know, all I know is that I am FUH REAKING out and it’s very hard to study for my exams when it could be any day now! Also it’s going to my house and my parents are away on business… aaaargh!! I just want to be put out of my misery already! I think that we should storm the office and demand answers Jack Bauer style.</p>
<p>Last Friday I was told that decisions would be mailed at 5pm this Friday, and that we could start calling in for decisions on Tuesday.</p>
<p>I know you said a few times already that they were mailed out the last few years on a Wednesday, but there are clear differences this year. Namely, no where on the Admission website does it say a date for mailing the decisions. It says “mid-May” everywhere. From my understanding, an actual date was posted somewhere last year. So Admissions hasn’t committed itself to a date/day this year. </p>
<p>This is pure speculation, but they are probably just printing all of the letters now and assembling all of the packages. I hope they mail them today!</p>
