Does Smith update decisions on their portal or mail decisions through US mail? This is all so confusing.

Do only early write recipients get merit? This too is confusing. How do they award all this before officially sending all applicants their decisions?
Did you also get an early write?
@rkamin smith updates decisions in the portal (march 26 4pm est) and it seems like people who are not early acceptances can still get merit, but it’s less common
Well if they even accept people who did not get one maybe there is financial aid. Thanks!

@eleanxr how did you know the date March 26 at 4?
My D got an email
Today? That decisions were coming out Friday?
I got an early acceptance letter and they told us then, and I think some other people got emails

Our DD just got her snail-mail letter from Smith with Zollman award, and also her acceptance letter from Swarthmore. Interesting choice.

I haven’t received the package yet
I think so too. My daughter fits in all the boxes but this is all discouraging.
Yes, there is financial aid and the presidential merit award. I think STRIDE is mostly awarded to the early accepted students.
Thanks she would need to get accepted first.
