<p>Na, I don’t think we’ll know the definite date until people start getting acceptances. Unless you want to call the Admissions office; they might let you know.</p>
<p>^ If anyone ends up calling the admissions office, post the date here!</p>
<p>alisiddiqui94 - not international. It came in a big white envelope. Inside is a brown folder with the words - “Congratulations Class of 2017” over it. In the brown folder are the acceptance letter and others. S really like it but we have to consider due to $$$$.</p>
<p>thanks for the update frisesbichon</p>
<p>So there ARE early writes.</p>
<p>Lol no her son didn’t receive an early write. It was an ACCEPTANCE letter/package that was sent out early.</p>
<p>Different things.</p>
<p>I thought early writes were early acceptance letters…</p>
<p>Of course, they do indicate that the student will be accepted, but certainly colleges don’t send out early writes with the complete acceptance package.</p>
<p>But that was an acceptance letter.</p>
<p>Last year they were mailed on the 23rd. They can take close to a week to arrive…</p>
<p>The admissions office aims to have all students receive their letters by April 1st. I don’t yet know the date of letter send-off, but as soon as I do, I’ll hop on here and let you all know.</p>
<p>International students receive letters first via email and also by mail, recognizing that a letter may take longer but that you may want a hard copy as well. Domestic students receive their letters by paper mail only, and depending on where you live, you will receive your letter anywhere between a day and a week from the letter send-off date.</p>
<p>(Carry on with your nervous waiting. I’ll return here when I know more!)</p>
<p>^^ In the case of a US student abroad (attending school overseas), is it possible to send an email? We have a US mailing address but our student doesn’t live there at the moment - will she be flagged to receive an email or can she request it?</p>
<p>@KSAMom: Email the admissions office and make sure they know your situation.</p>
<p>If this year is like the past couple years, decisions were mailed today?</p>
<p>any idea if they were sent out???</p>
<p>Any more news anybody?</p>
<p>Um, international emails will be sent out on March 27. That’s all I know.</p>
<p>@Vivaciousakrish Thanks!</p>
<p>We received an e-mail on Friday stating that my daughter was accepted also saying that this notifications was sent early to a small amount of exceptional students, with invitation to visit Oberlin in April (two weekends to choose from) with all expenses paid.
They also said that acceptance letter shall arrive ‘in a few days’ .
Did not say anything about FA/scholarship…</p>
<p>I did not receive an e-mail with a decision yet. Did anyone else get an acceptance e-mail?</p>
<p>@StaticRoar: It’s going to be sent via snail mail. </p>
<p>I really hope it gets sent out tomorrow… I need to plan my college visits.</p>
