University of Richmond EA decisions

USPS delivers Priority mail on Sundays. Is the Richmond letter shipped Priority?

No problem, the envelope is huge and says ‘IS THIS THE ENVELOPE YOU’VE BEEN WAITING FOR?’
I sincerely doubt they would put that if you didn’t get in as that would be a total buzzkill. Best of luck!

has anyone who got in tried to put in their UR ID and last name to pay the deposit and gotten into the system? When I try it gives an error message. not feeling good

Do you know what the first-marking period grades on the application summary means? I have the semester grades submitted but not the first marking period ones…

it says “Our records indicate that you have already made a payment through our online system or currently have not been set up to make payments through this system.”

@jackhappy I believe it’s whatever your school goes by, like first quarter or first semester. luckily, my school has quarters, so I asked my counselor to submit them as soon as they were available. if yours is not available, I believe you just submit it as soon as they become available.

@Raider01 have you tried your UR ID again when for the deposit thing?

Yeah, I got the same thing. I hope thats not a bad thing

@jackhappy @dochoo so both of you guys got the deposit option after logging into the portal? and your app checklist/summary is gone? jesus what is happening

no just got the deposit option on the main page at richmond.edu. when you click on the green check mark in the lower left it takes you to a page where you can click on link to “deposit now”. still all without logging in. They ask you to enter UR ID and student’s last name but that gives me an error message : “Our records indicate that you have already made a payment through our online system or currently have not been set up to make payments through this system.”
live in c’ville but no letter today

@dochoo oh man, same
but i think it’s a different ID from the UR ID, since it’s called a University ID
or is classof18student correct and its the same… idk man

My son’s portal has not changed, which leads me to believe he will get disappointing news in the mail on Monday.

People!
Nobody’s portal has changed.
Everyone is still in the running.

It a little mean for UR to mail the letters on a Friday afternoon, don’t you all think? Knowing that the letters would not be delivered until Monday at the earliest (unless you live in Richmond).

@R0adMap true… I wish they mailed accordingly so that most people would have it by Jan. 20. I live in Midlothian, and I still haven’t received my mail. Noted, mailmen don’t work on Sundays :frowning:

So my application portal has definitely changed. There is a message about deposit that states to enter University ID (included in admission packet) and Last Name of the student. I have put the ID I received in original email I got after submitting application and nothing happens. I also went on the main page for Richmond and tried to log in for deposit and got the same message everyone else is getting. “Our records indicate that you have already made a payment through our online system or currently have not been set up to make payments through this system.” It seems like if some have gotten their letter already it would allow you to make a deposit. Therefore I am assuming it is a different ID (best case) or I was denied/deferred. The wait continues.

@Raider01 what you’re referring to is the page for ppl who have been admitted to go onto and make their deposit. Everyone has access to that website, and the only one who has been admitted and can verify this is classof18student, and he claims that his portal has not changed. So far, we don’t have anyone to verify that the application portal has changed (who got the mail and said it changed). All we can do is wait, and I hope the best for everyone!!

I know, what I am saying is my portal is different. But there seems to be a glitch, it won’t let me put anything in. I understand the main Universiy of Richmond page that has the green check is for people that have been admitted. I am just letting everyone know that even though my portal page has changed it does not mean that I was admitted. I feel if I was it would let me make a deposit given Classof18student said it was the same ID.

@Raider01 I see. Well, hope you the best!!

@dangjamja Thanks, good luck to you as well.
