What's up with Deerfield?

<p>I saw 3 acceptance and several waitlists on the Master List. We haven't heard anything - no email, no letter. Does anyone have any idea how they are handling their decisions? Do they send them by UPS, USPS, when, any difference between international and domestic applicants?</p>

<p>No clue, we’re in the dark too. Though I am presuming he has been wait listed or rejected at his point.
My son has some good schools to decide from already, the drums of Deerfield are fading.</p>

<p>Deerfield presumably accepted only 12 % of its applicants…</p>

<p>pssh… it’s deerfield.</p>

<p>(sorry, I’m a choatie ;))</p>

<p>Exactly…they’re old fashioned and dated… (I go to Choate as well, so I might be biased)</p>

<p>12% IS very small number, so presumably the accepted should’ve received their letters and the rest are either rejected or waitlisted, just like with Andover?</p>

<p>Andover should have a different policy of sending out acceptances/waitlists/rejection notices. I remember when I applied everyone who got in received their letter on March 10th, and others (like me) waited 3-4 days.</p>

<p>I understand applications were up around 14% this year at DA, and the acceptance rate will be the lowest ever, although 12% sounds really low…</p>

<p>someone said they got an acceptance in USPS priority mail, which is within 2 day delivery,not overnight</p>

<p>Well when did DA send out their acceptances 2 day delivery? The 9th or 10th?
Maybe us kiddies here on the left coast can expect them tomorrow? Anyone in California received a DA notice yet?</p>

<p>Our S was waitlisted at DA. Came regular mail yesterday.</p>

<p>i live there but haven’t gotten my mail today yet, i shall let you know when it comes</p>

<p>Sarum: no news from Deerfield yet. We’re Northern Cal, mail already came, and it’s about 1:30 p.m.</p>

<p>i need to go find the mailman</p>

<p>Our daughter was Wait Listed. The letter came today by regular mail…and we live in PA.</p>

<p>Haven’t heard anything, I live in the south. But I haven’t heard anything from my acceptance either. So idk.</p>

<p>did your mail come today?</p>

<p>Yup…</p>

<p>got it in mail - waitlist. Oh well, don’t care any more at this point.</p>

<p>what area do you live in i am wondering if a decision will come 2day</p>
