I did see the post. I have learned that we know nothing for sure and we will have to wait and see!

My thinking is that they are going to release earlier than Friday because what is the point of date stamping around the end of the month when you could just say the last Friday. I do not think they will release the same time three years in a row! Maybe this is just me talking because I want them to get released earlier or maybe it isn’t; we’ll see!

If they release on Friday they don’t have to take all the calls from people asking why they didn’t get in… Is my take…

I think I’ve convinced myself that my son’s decision will undoubtedly be “DEFERRED” that I haven’t considered the very real possibility that it might be DENIED!
I even convinced him to expect a deferral. He acted very defensive when I first suggested it. Poor guy if it’s an outright rejection.
So that’s how I’m feeling.

Yeah, my son said he can’t access it and there is a message “decisions will be out soon”. Soon like today or Friday 
?

It is hard managing expectations. Deferrals and rejections may be the outcome for even the best candidates. It’s like a game of musical chairs with 85,000 players and only 10,000 seats. May the odds be ever in your favor.

I think last year it showed up about 4 days before they released! So probably Friday

So question… Did any of you guys hear about the twin rule? It is a highly backed rumor in my district.
Lol. I so get you! I am also feeling a deferral coming my way but I am also a high achiever in-state student so who knows 
. Hopefully not a rejection!
Maintenence to the portals usually happens the Monday of the week of the release… Is today Monday already??

What’s the twin rule?

That if twins apply to the same university, the university won’t only accept one. They’ll accept both or reject both. Which twins applying invariably interpret as both will be accepted.
And it’s an urban legend more than a rule.

Thank you 
That makes no sense. Twins won’t necessarily have the same academic qualifications or interests.
