OOS Decisions to be mailed Friday 3/8/13

<p>According to two posters who contacted UD Chat yesterday: They were informed by UD officials that UD will begin to mail OOS decisions on friday and that an applicant's portal will change as the decision is mailed. It appears that this will occur over a period of time (I would guess several weeks) so not all acceptances will be sent out at once. Looks like it will be a very hectic weekend and next several weeks. Good Luck to all applicants.</p>

<p>Good to hear, thanks for the update.</p>

<p>I relayed this message to DD at dinner and she just beamed with excitement! I did warn her that it might be in waves and that it might not be this first week. Still it’s good to know it’s getting closer so thank you for this update.</p>

<p>Whether its Friday or Monday (from the info you posted on another thread) at least this should all be over soon. Good luck again to all applicants.</p>

<p>So does this mean that most portals will be updated within the next week? And we just don’t know when we will get the official packet in the mail? Or will these happen at the same time? Thanks again for all the valuable information Mwallenmd.</p>

<p>MikeBM3:
I wish I had definitive answers to your questions. It does appear that posters on some other threads have presented some slightly conflicting information that they received from various UD officials in the UD Chat room. My best “guess” is that most successful applicants will receive a portal change or email before they get the packet in the mail. Following a multivariant analysis (LOL) I would not be surprised to start seeing acceptance emails or portal changes starting Friday evening and into the weekend, or on Monday at the latest. Best of luck to you and all applicants.</p>

<p>I just chatted with the online chat. The person told me notifications would be mailed next week and that the portal would change when the notifications are mailed. This was contradictory to what i was told by them the other day which was that they would be mailed on Friday.</p>

<p>I’ve posted this on other threads as well but for all of you here: (from twitter)
@UDAdmissions: Update: Admit packets are being assembled @UDelaware. Almost time to set clocks forward & invite accepted students back to campus! #Udel</p>

<p>Portal hasn’t updated yet <em>shrug</em>.</p>

<p>Just got off the phone with an admissions representative. OOS decisions will start to be mailed out mid to late March, so not today. I asked if they’d start next week and she said she doesn’t know, there’s too many applications to go through for her to give an exact date. Just don’t expect anything in the next few days :P</p>

<p>Brutal! Absolutely brutal!</p>

<p>UD twitter - “decisions have begun to mail & will continue on Monday. Check your portal for decisions beginning next week & good luck!”</p>

<p>"@UDAdmissions: #Udel decisions have begun to mail & will continue on Monday. Check your portal for decisions beginning next week & good luck! #Admissions" </p>

<p>It’s official! Decisions are being mailed!!</p>

<p>Mid March is what they told us today. Brutal is right. We are still waiting for Stony Brook too. My poor son just wants to commit & get on with it!</p>

<p>anybody have anything on their portal?</p>

<p>No change yet. My daughter is still waiting to hear from Stony Brook as well. I usually can’t wait for March to be over because of the weather (we’re in upstate NY). This year it’s so we can get through this crazy phase!!</p>

<p>@ithacamom we are upstate as well. Son has been accepted to Umass Amherst, Hofstra, Quinnipiac, Oneonta & Oswego. Leaning toward UMass if Stony Brook & Delaware are rejections.</p>

<p>when we open the portal and the decisions are up, is it just going to pop up or are we going to have to click something to see it?</p>

<p>Once you sign into your UD portal site it will open with a large Congratulatory display message if you have been accepted. If you applied to the Honors Program and were accepted into it this also will be noted in the message. At least this is the way it has been done in the past.</p>

<p>They tweeted that they started mailing yesterday and will continue Monday, with portals changing early next week.</p>
