Everyone needs to chill! Decisions will come out soon!

This article is interesting reading while we are all waiting. http://www.studlife.com/news/administration/2017/03/09/wu-receives-record-number-of-applicants/

This article must mean decisions are close to being released.

Can anyone find anything on their UPS / USPS account? I am starting to doubt whether decisions will really be declared today. Also, any idea if they email before releasing decisions and if yes, how much time before?

@cashme last year I heard it wasn’t until after 11 cst that people started noticing packages. I guess we’ll find out in about 20 or so minutes if it’s today.

Yeah someone said UPS tracking showed it at 12:30est

is is usps or ups this year

I just freaked out when I saw I had a package coming on USPS account but then I saw it was from Jersey City under “Focus Mailing LLC”.

lol

@jjmama did someone say that today?

decisions probably aren’t coming today, someone would have seen their package by now.

@ap012199 No, someone said that in previous years, people started seeing packages on their tracking apps around 12:30est.

so nervous

I saw someone mention that they might not send packages the day of anymore because they figured out that people were creating USPS accounts. That might not be true though.

does anyone know what time they electronically released the decisions last year?

I hope they release decisions today!

5:35 est

Source?

I just received updated information from a Wash U parent and someone very involved in college admissions with students. Packages will not be mailed prior to the electronic decision that will come out between 4 and 5 pm CST today. No need to check UPS, as nothing will show. We just have to be patient until this afternoon. Wishing everyone the very best!

Yay, now there is a chance they come out today lol
