<p>How early did people receive notification from Bates last year for Regular Decision? Was it closer to April 1 or closer to the middle of March? I’m anxious and am going to be out of town March 25-April 2 for Spring Break and am hoping I’ll know before then. That way, my parents won’t have to sit with a little (or hopefully big) envelope until I get home!</p>
<p>i'm anxious too! i hope we hear earlier than april 1.</p>
<p>If I can remember correctly, I got my Bates acceptance letter on March 25th and it takes two days for mail to get from Bates to my house. However, a week before that, they sent me a letter saying that it was likely that I would be admitted. I don't know if they usually do that every year or if it was just because they had an accepted students day on April 1 last year. Still, I remember my acceptance from Bates was the first one I received, so you definetly should get it before April 1 unless you live really far away from Maine.</p>
<p>did anyone applying ed ii or ed i get a "likely letter" ?</p>
