*****OFFICIAL RICE CLASS OF 2021 THREAD*****

I still say expect the decision to be out after 5pm on March 31st. Owl days (accepted student days) are April 12th-14th. When my daughter applied in 2014, the decision came out March 28th (a Friday) after 5pm. Owl days for her were April 9th - 11th.

^sounds like solid logic, but many are saying it’s tomorrow. The reddit spreadsheet was updated, but few other sites say anything other than “by April 1”. Anyone have confirmation on anything?

Results went out on 25 Mar last year. With an Admit Day on 7 Apr this year, I say results are out tomorrow.

Just got a notification that a USPS package from Houston mailed to my daughter today so I think 3/25 is the day!

@ballerinamom how exactly did you get a notification? Did you go to USPS website?

I learned this from parents on another thread - you can create a free MyUSPS account and sign up for text/email alerts

Does rice send decisions in packages?

@ballerinamom Yaaaay! Congrats to your daughter!
It’s the good ol parcel trick. Happened last year with Reed College. I don’t want to jinx it but everyone whi had that notification online on USPS or Fedex actually did get accepted.

Can it come out today?

@ballerinamom are you able to see what address it was shipped from? Maybe im doing this wrong… I don’t see any mail for the past two weeks from USPS even though I’ve gotten 10+ pieces in the past week from colleges…

Or maybe it isn’t showing any previous mail since I just made the account 5 minutes ago? How long has your daughter had an account?

I really hope it’s tomorrow! The wait is killing

I have a package from Houston too!!! @ballerinamom does it say shipped from PSI Systems?

I’ve no scheduled deliveries

@bssurly I have a PSI Systems package coming from Houston!

I can’t say it’s the most exciting way to find out though. A bit anti-climatic, but an ingenious method nonetheless.

oh well, makes the college decision much easier :slight_smile: guess it’s chapel hill then for me. really excited still because it’s a great school :slight_smile:

@melodicvitamins how long have you had an account on My USPS? I don’t see anything, and I’m hoping it’s because I just created the account.

Are they packages or just mail? Seems odd…

@Jpgranier I made one in order to check for WashU, and their decisions came out about a week ago, so it’s been a while.

Decisions come out while I’m in a class with a strict “no iPads” policy, so my finding out this way is probably for the best. xP

when are decisions coming out? today?

How do we check usps
