<p>Do you think the admission officers still reading files and vote for decisions now? Maybe they finish up all the votings on March 7th, 8th-ish? What else can the admission officers be doing?</p>
<p>I would guess decisions must be made. With all the applicants, it takes a while to compile the letters/packages, etc. Plus, they have to give time for the FA people to do their work.
Just my guess though, I have no real inside info.</p>

<p>I’m not speechless I’m not Kim u dummy. It’s funny how unleashing my
supposed name on the internet makes u seem cool.</p>
<p>Someone posted this a few days ago, so check it out because it’s quite interesting and sheds a good deal of light on just how much work the admissions folks have to do …</p>

<p>having a huge slumber party in the office to celebrate</p>
<p>Last year March 10 was on a Tuesday. My d received a call to schedule an interview on Thursday, March 5 and had an interview on Friday, March 6 with Hotchkiss. At some schools they may still be making decisions.</p>
<p>Looking at CC and laughing at us :p</p>
<p>Kidding.</p>
<p>Finalising who is getting in w/FA and determining WL i would think.</p>
<p>interesting avid2000</p>
<p>haha blueraven, what if they actually did! haha!</p>
<p>Big bonfires.</p>
<p>They’re doing their “yield management” calculations about now I’d say. With many kids applying to 5-10 schools it’s got to be increasingly tricky to know which kids will actually say “yes”</p>
<p>i think a saw somewhere they do their admissions meetings till the end of feb. now is probaly last minute stuff.</p>
<p>roasting hot weenies over a fire.</p>
<p>I hate yield management. I hope son doesn’t become a victim.</p>
<p>Of course, I understand fully why they have to consider all that. They can’t over enrolled and they can’t overspend their FA budgets.</p>
<p>I imagine that this is also the time there is a lot of give and take between the admissions and the FA office, determining who they want the most relative to the dollars they have available.</p>
<p>I just (as in last hour) had a school call me to clarify FA details. I know it’s a decent sign but how good of one?</p>
<p>That’s great Blue! How much do you need again?</p>
<p>About half FA
Ironically next year I’ll probably be FP</p>
