Haha, @curlyllama, apparently they’re “highly recommended” on the website too. Gah, I wish I had paid more attention. I wish I had actually realized how awesome Reed was before this month, so that I’d be able to send them updates/personal statement that would express my interest. I’ve been reading a lot about Reed lately, and it seems that like pride themselves on being quirky, being unique, having an odd, intellectual, focused student body. And I spent my entire application trying to hide my weirdness. :stuckouttongue:
Oh, @International95, thank you! Yes, I hope it turns out well. I’ll stop worrying now… there’s nothing else I can do
Good luck everyone!!! This is the last of my applications to announce and then I can finally make a decision. Hopefully I can call myself a Reedie!
do you think we’ll know today?
Why does the Tumblr say decisions are “mailed” during the last week of March – if they were e-mailed last year about this time? Maybe they e-mail first and mail the packets next week?
I got a FedEx 2 days after I got the decision last year. So prob emailed and postmarked same day.
A bit stressed because I just got wait listed at UVA, so definitely hoping for a Reed decision soon so I can know what’s in store for me
My son is telling me decisions come out tomorrow - not sure where he saw that.
Will they be on the portal or will we get an e-mail?
@frodosdojo find out if you can, any assurance would be great!!! I LOVE REED!!!
This is basically going to be the most important decision for me. I really hope they liked my essays. I love this school, what it stands for, and the way the students learn, and I really want to be apart of Reed.
I love everything about it too…the motto literally describes me too “Communism, atheism, and free love”.
@Ctesiphon Lol. Yeah mostly me too although I think I believe in more of a mix of capitalism and socialism. Though, I have to say that my thoughts on economics are not very well developed.
@Ctesiphon - he was looking at last year’s thread. Sorry to get your hopes up.
Has anyone received a decision yet?
@ZachSchaaf I haven’t. Hopefully they’ll be sent via email tomorrow or later this week.
This week is going to be big for me, I can smell it. I think that most of the rest of my colleges will be releasing their decisions this week.
Good luck if you’re in the same boat!
As much as I absolutely adore Reed, if I’m accepted, I’ll need some really beautiful financial aid to offset plane costs… it’s so far away!!!
I feel like emails are going to be coming out tomorrow… They said the last week of March, and they’ve historically released yesterday or today, so maybe tomorrow will finally be the day!
Honestly just really hoping for some good news. Being wait listed at uva really shook my confidence, but getting into BU and American made me a little less scared, so I think an acceptance at Reed might actually drag me out of this awful pre-decision nightmare that we’re all living.
Please has anyone contacted Reed to know when the decisions 'll be available
Just called admissions. They said they are doing things differently this year-- NO EMAILS, just a letter, which will be sent out starting april first (“hopefully” as they said)
@7327777 Auugghhh ! I am so disappointed !
