I feel those are driven by when the school counselor uploaded the mid year report into common app, I guess all the universities would automatically downloaded the new info once it is uploaded.
According to my hs counselor, this is best way to check. Also, Iāve noticed on various occasions, these downloads were never during weekends. Meaning, someone was manually doing them during work hours ?

My guess is based on the observation that our mid year reports were all downloaded by all the schools we applied at the same time in the common app. That feels like the common app will trigger something when new info. Is uploaded so the schools will download. Again, that is just a guess and based off one single observationā¦from what you described, it certainly sounds different from our caseā¦
It is sad that people will draw inferences and spread rumors. Guys it is already a very tense time for all let us not make it worse.
Right in this thread someone started a false thing that if you dont see mid term transcript meana you are not likely to get in. This is so wrong, please refrain from statting such false narration. We must use this portal to share vital information with each other not crush hopes or bring negativity.
God bless everyone and pray for the very best.

Portal astrology is meant to be a fun way to pass the time until decisions . If it stresses you out maybe its not for you.

Most of the time āportal astrologyā is wrong (mostly hearsay from people wishing/hoping that they are āinā), so I donāt think many people put a lot of weight in that kind of comment. That being said, maybe I didnāt read back far enough to see what post youāre talking about as I always skip the nonsense. At this point, only Stanford knows who they are letting in

Can I ask if anyone else has Stanford with the CSS award date.

Agree and none of these universities are going to drop hints unless itās a likely letter. It would save a lot of time as well as mental stress for the ones who are indulging in āportal astrologyā to just trust the process and wait for another two weeks or so.

It is in my sonās portal as 4/01. I thought that the award date is just when the school sends their financial aid packages to accepted students? I thought everyone would have the same dates listed? 
my sons says December

This and the Yale thread are toxic as heck. I hope AOs arent reading these and laughing at the absurdity of how people are trying to glean the tiniest bit of info. We are two weeks away from decisions. We will know in two weeks, not before. All this is doing is causing others who are coming here for real information regarding the application process more stress and insecurity. Even the reddit threads dont get this silly. Good luck to all your kids, and truly hoping it works out and they are accepted at the school they love!

Yale thread is worse. Absolutely no real information can be gained.

Does the converse hold true? Did people who have it on their portal get in?

this was not astrology it was a death sentence 
It is one thing to say if you find this chances are high and another to say that if you dont see it you are not in.
Also there should be at leats 5% credibility in even portal astrology
Iām curious, does anyone at all have the midyear transcript on their portal?
Amen!!!
Sending all positive vibes!!
Guys let us give out some credible information, to help each other. No pulling down, no false info, no speculation.
For thsoe who want fun please mention it is portal astrology when you make claims!! At least others would know.
Trust in the process, I truly wish each and every kid is happy in the end

I donāt think so. It just does not make sense for the report to show up for some and not others till the decision is released. Once decisions come out accepted students portal will be updated with it.
