My daughter got her package this morning. We live in SC (but fortunately in the same city as a major FedEx hub).
Thanks to those who gave a heads-up regarding FedEx Service. You can find out the delivery status but you have to go through several steps, including establishing a FedEx account (no cost or commitment) in the student’s name. You cannot get a status without the account.
It looks like everything was sent 2nd Day Business, so arrival no later than 8:00p east on Tuesday, if not before.
For all still waiting, hang in there. For better (or worse) these are the moments that the stories of the rest of your lives are made from. And years from now, regardless the outcomes, you’ll look back fondly on these moments that you hate so badly now.
That wasn’t our experience but I respect that it’s not working for you.
We made an account last night around midnight. After about 15 minutes we were then able to track a package based on combo of daughter’s name (as addressed by Reed) and address. The package had been shipped on Friday. We were still able to see its status.
I created an account with the Fedex app and it worked fine for me. Maybe try that. Still does not say that anything has been shipped however, only that a label was created…
I am in Colorado and have yet to hear anything. My USPS mail came and there is no rejection letter. However, when I check into FedEx packages coming it says there is nothing. Does anyone have specific steps for how to get it to work? @ReedDad07 mentioned that it took 15 minutes. What did you have to do?
Make sure you make an account with the student name exactly as they would have it on file in admissions.
After that there is a spot in package tracking where you can enter name and address to find a match. I can’t recall where, it was late last night. And it didn’t show up immediately, like it took about 15 minutes for the new account to clear the system and be recognized.
But, also, don’t sweat it! You’ll know soon enough. Enjoy the journey, even if yours is a little longer.
I just received a fedex notification that a package from Portland, OR was dropped off for shipping. Since some people already got their acceptances, I assume that means they are being sent out in batches. My last name starts with a ‘z’ so maybe its in alphabetical order, but either way don’t lose hope!
I signed up for Fedex exactly on December 15. Go to http://www.fedex.com/us/delivery/ and not Fedex Insight. Worst comes to worst, you can call customer service and see if you have any incoming packages.

Not sure when approval happens…but we are still hopeful!
Last name starts with A. Perhaps boxes batch processed and shipped in alphabetical order. Since 15th was a Friday some boxes may have been delayed being sent.
