Hey guys, since it’s near to decision day, I guess everybody needs a thread to chit chat a little bit. Post your stats and have a little chat 
Decision day today @ 4 PM CST. Check your email and good luck!
@BillyBean Really? How do you know?
I asked my international counselor and she said it won’t be out until December 15th??? Anyone knows why it’s coming out so fast?
@Quanh261997 Same here. D was told in interview that decision would NOT be earlier than 15th, but I guess she will start compulsively checking today. 
@BillyBean how do you know?
My son and I attended a Trinity University meeting for potential football players meeting last night in Houston. Gail, I our admissions director for this area was in attendance. I asked her when decisions would be sent out and she answered today at 4 PM. My son is EA and I don’t know if this would include international students as well.
BTW, we joked that it was good that the emails were not sent until 4 PM because we knew that our kids would be checking their emails and incessantly during school. She said that is precisely why they chose 4 PM!
Has anyone heard from Trinity yet?
i have been refreshing the page often but nothing so far! I thought it was supposed to happen at 4
yeah, are you just basing it off that guy or how did you find that out? (and same on the refreshing thing dont worry!)
I am “that guy” and I stand by what I posted earlier. Believe it or not, that is your choice, but the conversation did take place.That said, my son has not heard anything either!
It was never my intent to cause apprehension for anyone. If the post cased anyone consternation, then I apologize. But I was told this last night.
I received my EA decision today at 5:30 pm from Trinity and I got accepted! According to their email, I will be getting an official acceptance letter by mail soon. I’m very excited and hope you guys hear back soon too!
Accepted to Trinity! Received the email today at 3:30 PT

That Guy
Congrats to all the people who got accepted, looks like intl students will have to wait till 15 because I’m not seeing any mail right now =))
@anothermuggle Did you also receive scholarship information or financial aid package along with it?
@Quanh261997 So far we’ve only gotten emails. But the email said that the official letter of acceptance will arrive in the mail soon. I have read that merit scholarships are included in this official letter.
For all the schools I’m applying to, merit aid is one of, if not the most important factor. I am anxious to find out if/how much merit aid I will be offered.
Did you guys get an email saying to check your portal or that you were accepted? Or did you just have to look on your portal yourself to find out? Congrats to all who were accepted!
@baconwaffle The email said that I was accepted. I checked my portal later though, and it didn’t really show significant changes or acknowledgement of admittance so far as I could see… So just keep checking your email! Best of luck!
