thinking it would be next Thursday again… 
maybe today! my daughter has friends who heard on the 11th last year 
i believe last year there was only one batch released on the first week, but we can never know
I mean we will know, if they don’t release another batch of decisions tonight then you’d be right.
Email they sent earlier 12/3 they gave date range 12/6 to 12/12 so another 36 hours something comes out
That’s from the email …
The UMass Amherst Office of Undergraduate Admissions will begin releasing decisions for Early Action applicants during the week of December 6-12, 2020. Not all decisions are released at the same time. We will continue to release them throughout December and into the first part of January.
As for the benefit of honors college the thing I keep hearing most is that the dorms are nicer. 
I’m sure there are more academic perks as well. On the website it says that enrolled students can apply for the honors college after their first semester if they meet the criteria and 90% are accepted.
they posted on instagram explaining that one batch came out yesterday and more will be coming out across the month and into early january so likely none today !

probably nothing today. my guess is there will be another batch on the 17th.
HI! So I just had a question. When they say that they are releasing decisions in batches, does that usually mean just one batch a week?

Does anyone know here if merit money depends on your major and pool of kids within it?. I’ve heard of a lot of kids getting merit money who have same or lower GPA and stats than mine and we didn’t get anything. She didn’t submit scores but neither did the people we know who got some merit?
Hi! I got accepted to Computer Science with a 16k merit, thinking UMass Amherst was a safety school. I just saw the USNews AI rankings where UMass ranks a freaking #11. Can someone please tell me if the rankings are weirdly inflated or UMass is genuinely a great Computer Science school?

Why aren’t they doing one batch a week?
