Official RD Countdown Thread

<p>I also got my letter on monday, and the decisions were mailed on the previous friday (this is for EA)... so it only takes 2 days to get to the west coast.</p>

<p>So if they are mailed out tomorrow, then we can expect them here in California on Saturday, and at the latest on Monday (the 28th).</p>

<p>I think so</p>

<p>I'd say Monday. If decisions were mailed on a Friday, and they arrived on a Monday, decisions mailed on a Thursday should also arrive on a Monday (mail still moves on Sunday, it just doesn't get delivered).</p>

<p>even on easter sunday?</p>

<p>Really, mail gets moved on Sunday? I did not know that...thanks Ender!</p>

<p>"even on easter sunday?"</p>

<p>Oh, I had forgotten that Easter was this weekend. I don't think USPS moves mail at all on Easter, but I'm not positive.</p>

<p>-Ender</p>

<p>well if they mailed them today then Easter wouldn't be an issue because you'd get it by Saturday, right?</p>

<p>mailed today = received by friday (almost definitely by saturday)</p>

<p>do they expedite (e.g. fedex) acceptances like the ivies?</p>

<p>I think they do, the rejections/waitlist are sent by regular postal mail I think</p>

<p>it's all sent the same... because the rejections, waitlists, and acceptances all come in the same envelope (regular business size). no big package vs. thin envelope game for gtown...</p>

<p>the girl with the friend in admissions said they were mailing most of the d's on thursday, the 24th...stop scaring me people</p>

<p>they mail finaid packages the same day, right?</p>

<p>huh? i'm getting confused.
i can't be bothered to read the whole thread, so somebody please tell me when the RD letters are mailed out.. and if we can find out online?</p>

<p>so when do we find out basically..</p>

<p>sorry for confusing the date earlier, lol. my bad.</p>

<p>we can possibly hear after tomorrow? Good God. (and in light of Easter, that was probably the wrong thing to say atm lol)</p>

<p>EnderWiggin: can i please say, Ender's Game is one of my favorite books of all time. I love it and have read it at least twenty times...the rest of the series is pretty good too, particularly Speaker for the Dead</p>

<p>ok so we find out friday onwards?</p>

<p>can someone actually check this.. how bout calling the office?</p>

<p>speculation is so much more fun though</p>

<p>well, my mail should be here pretty soon and I live right outside of DC...we shall see...</p>

<p>Sorry to be the bearer of bad news, but I just called the admissions office and the girl on the phone said the letters will be mailed out in bulk on MONDAY. No one will hear back before Easter.</p>

<p>MONDAY?!? that is so not cool. Do you think by monday she actually meant thursday?</p>
