<p>When exactly does Amherst notify applicants? Can you check the online status site at a certain day/time?</p>
<p>You mean of acceptance/rejection/waitlist? They send out letters. I don't remember the exact date, but it was the last school I heard back from.</p>
<p>an article in the Amherst Student newspaper says the letters will be mailed on April 2nd</p>
<p>Except for those lucky few that receive Early Writes, and they come the beginning of March.</p>
<p>How many receive Early Writes? Are these just likely letters?</p>
<p>No. They send out acceptance letters early to their top candidates. D received hers the beginning of March 2 yrs. ago.</p>
