Reed ED Class of 2023

Sign up, for Fedex delivery manager, and you can see if you have an incoming delivery.

My understanding, and I could be wrong about this, is that the “delivery manager” signup only works if you have signed up before the package has been sent. Signing up now would not help with the packages that appear to have gone out today/this week. Could be wrong about that, but I recall others saying this on other threads.

Deep sigh

I’m also applying EA and got a request to interview. I definitely didn’t do too well. My result is not out yet. Not through the portal at least.

My interview, I think seemed definitely happy with me. We ended on a really fantastic note. I think…

While is is nice for the people who see a package on Delivery Manager, it is very stressful for everyone who doesn’t. This is my third daughter to apply to Reed. The first two got in and received packages, and yet the packages never showed up in Delivery Manager. Yes, I was signed up ahead of time. I don’t know why it is this way. I wish I could get everyone to forget they heard about Delivery Manager and go about their lives until a box (or a letter) arrives. Reed will send an email after everyone has had a chance to receive their physical notification.

@craZZprocess, this is my first kid applying. I assume, as this is your third, that you and your daughters would recommend the experience. We are unlikely (should he get in, but Delivery Manager shows package en route) to get anything close to the financial aid (scholarships) DS has been offered by other LACs, so it’s going to be a tough choice.

@sequoiamama Both of my older daughters ended up at Scripps College where they actually got less financial aid than they would have at Reed. Reed was their second choice in both cases. My second daughter was influenced by my first daughter who has been having a great experience at Scripps. My third daughter is undecided at this point. I believe Reed will be in the top three. So I can’t really speak to the experience of attending Reed. So I did get a Delivery Manager alert today, an hour before the box arrived, saying it was mailed 2 days ago.

hii does any international students received a book in their package from Reed? They only sent me three papers which is also attached in their email. i’m a bit dissapointed now…

My son was accepted EA earlier this month. He is very very excited about it. Reed has a facebook site for newly admitted students, and he’s had a great time meeting folks from all over the country. They are posting questions and topics and having great discussions. It is easy to see how erudite everyone is. That’s how he knows for sure he’s in the right place.
