Nah Arizona

Does anyone know if the FedEx box requires a signature? We are out of town next week.

@eebee88 OMG I am praying I get in guys. That sounds incredible. Such an intellectually renaissance touch

@Ridiculous22 - don’t think so, ours was left out by the stoop.

Praying that I get in as well just for that admit package, @jackisawesome!!! 2 rejections in the last week, so I need good news lol

@thunderfly Did you receive an email with a username to log on to your admission tracker? I am assuming Reed will notify internationals that the status of their application has changed and then we will need to log onto the tracker site. I guess?

I’m an international student and I haven’t received an email with any information about my admission tracker. Though, I had received an email with information about my admission status and how I can log onto my admission portal.

If any internationals receive any information about the admission tracker, do let us know!

@fencingchick and @doesitmatter123 I did not receive any email regarding this admission tracker thing.

Oh crap! I just logged into my app portal and found out that my application isn’t even complete which is definitely strange cause the portal earlier displayed that it was complete. Apparently my counsellor did not send my ninth and tenth grade transcripts. I don’t think there’s any point contacting admissions at this point.
So if I do receive any admission decision at all, it’s most likely going to be a rejection :frowning: :((

If I were you I would still email/call them explaining what happened. You never know what’ll they do until then

@thunderfly contact Admissions!!!

So when should accepted Reed applications receive their Reed admissions boxes? (domestic applicants of course)

@Obrigadaa between the 29th and 1st I believe

@thunderfly, you can do this. Make the call on Monday, ask to speak with the person responsible for your region, and calmly explain what happened. If Reed is your #1 choice, tell them. I bet this can get worked out!

@Obrigadaa the boxes should be received by the 1st of April. Predicting that boxes will start being mailed out tomorrow, so that those on the East Coast get them by the 1st (takes FedEx ~5 days to reach eastern states from Reed). Not sure if those closer to Reed will either get them earlier or if Reed will tell FedEx to hold off on delivering them until the 1st. Just gotta keep your eyes peeled here I guess :slight_smile:

Thank you so much for your suggestions, guys… I emailed my counsellor and feel so relieved. Well, the ball’s not in my court now. Let’s see how it all turns out.

Are you mailing regular decisions on April 1st or by April 1st?

Hi! We will be mailing decisions on April 1.

Lol my admissions counselor just emailed me saying by so who knows? I’ll guess we’ll just have to wait and see

Torture…pure torture. So if they FedEx a small box on April 1st, it won’t get to my DD’s East Coast boarding school mailbox until Thursday, April 7th. With so little notice, the flight to RAD day is going to be astronomical. If she even gets in… Reed College, you are killing me!

@thunderfly I would suggest you contact an admissions officer ASAP.
