@grlpwr1 I believe presidential scholars are notified at time of admission, richmond scholars they said late this week or early next, not sure on any other merit rewards. Does anyone know if you’re in the running for richmond scholars, if they give you a presidential scholarship at time of admission still? I know in the past semi-finalists who did not end up receiving full tuition were awarded a presidential one.
Anyone in the Midwest get anything today?
@senior14548 I’m also from Upstate NY… UPS tracker expects it by tomorrow
got in with 92 gpa 33 act with presidential scholarship !! (nyc)
Can people who have been accepted, deferred or rejected please tell me the size of the envelopes you got and what it said on the outside of them? I have informed delivery so I can only see one side of the envelope. thanks!!
USPS trackers shows a normal letter sized envelope with regular postage arriving today – CA. DD has 3.9uw GPA with 3APs 32ACT and tons of quality ECs. Unfortunately, looks to be rejection or deferral based upon what people have posted for acceptances 
Any international students heard back yet? If yes, how? Did the deposit thing work for you?
@slaythedogma I checked with the admission officer. She said decisions will be emailed by end of this week for international students. The deposit thingy is apparently working for me.
There is a big envelope waiting on our doorstep for my D. We live on Long Island. The outside of the envelope reads: “Is this the envelope you have been waiting for?”
Great! Looks like she got in!!! Congrats!
how do you track your mail?
UPS informed delivery. You sign up on the website.
i am so nervous!! my mail comes around 3, is there a different size envelope based on your admissions decision? my brother is currently a sophomore, do you think that will have some type of impact?
Yeah! my son just got his UPS today (New York City). Its a thick envelope that says “Is this the envelope you’ve been waiting for” Of course I need to wait till he gets home to see what’s inside.
can you please let me know if that means acceptance? i doubt that they would put that on it if you weren’t accepted
LOL. that would be plain cruel if they wrote that on a rejection. the package is bulky, so assumption is acceptance. been through this process with the other kids, and rejections are thin -one page letters.
Big envelope or thick regular size?
8 x 11 padded envelope
I was actually home when the mail was delivered b/c its midterm week. My mom opened the door on the mailman who was trying to decide whether to fold and shove the big envelope through the slot or just leave it on the doormat outside. Are any of you who have been accepted so far seriously considering the school?
