<p>When does American begin notifying students who applied regular decision of admissions? I read somewhere it was at the beginning of April, but I’m not completely sure. Can anyone answer this question for me with some detail? Feel free to include anything about financial aid packages as well!</p>
<p>My daughter is a Freshman at American. She was accepted RD and received news of her acceptance via email (on March 9), followed up shortly with the hard copy acceptance package, which included information about her merit scholarship and FA status.</p>
<p>Also, you'll probably want to check out this thread from last spring's (class of 2011)RD decisions: <a href="http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/american-university/306467-email-notification.html%5B/url%5D">http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/american-university/306467-email-notification.html</a></p>
<p>Good luck!</p>
<p>Thank you very much.</p>
<p>i second what momonthehill says. my d heard in early-mid march and had her accepted-students' overnight done and deposit in in first week in april. we had been hearing from the financial aid office WAY before her acceptance( as i'd forgotten something) so we had an idea she was in. also, check your student portal which will address the merit/aid situation clearly. best of luck, steely!</p>
