***Official Swarthmore Class of 2019 RD Discussion Thread***

@Jellybae‌ Ok… Thanks

My daughter received one today, in the mail!

For the rest of the Regular Decision applicants, decisions will be online (through your Swarthmore portal) on March 26 at 6 pm eastern time. I didn’t see this information posted elsewhere on CC, so good luck everyone!

Got my letter yesterday :slight_smile:

I got mine by letter! I am super excited. I think Swarthmore is where I’ll be next year!!! Congrats to everyone else!

My acceptance letter actually came in on Friday (3 days ago). I was completely and utterly shocked… The envelope first looked so small. I had barely any expectation of admission, but I applied because I really loved the school and was willing to take the chance. Then they sent me an early acceptance letter…
There is a good chance that I will enroll next fall. I am happy for all Swarthmore applicants, regardless of their decision.

Congratulation everyone!! And good luck to the rest of us :slight_smile:

@bsb4389 how do you know that some will only be informed online? For those who did get letters, did they include financial package info? We are in Europe, so I am guessing if we’re going to get a letter, it will be in a day or two.

Is the March 26th, 6 pm EST decision time confirmed? Please let me know. Thank you

@notest The website states that all regular decision applicants can check their status on March 26 at 6pm EST online… I’m guessing admissions packets will come later for accepted students and maybe letters for rejected, but I’m unsure. Remember that the people receiving letters now are early admits, so not everyone (not even a majority) will receive these.
@Admission371 Yes, it is confirmed and on the Swarthmore Website under “Application Timeline” (or something titled like that).

I just got my acceptance today! I thought I didn’t get an early write because mine didn’t come, but I guess the mail was late, lol. Congrats to everyone else who’s got in so far! Any other early writes doing the overnight in April?

Thank you @‌bsb4389
and Thank you @PhxRising

When the decision is finally released, where do we check it? I have a check list. but there is no place for updated status.

@luv2sk8 I’m guessing there will be a new option besides the checklist when released, because the site explicitly states the decision will be in our applicant portal.

6 more days!! Is anyone else as excited/nervous as I am… The Swarthmore boards are so quiet!!!

i got an email telling me to check on the 26th

@igloo256, I got that too. is it bad omen?

The email sounds so depressing… @luv2sk8‌

I feel the same way. @igloo256. :frowning:
