When does MIT finish deliberations?

<p>Just wondering.</p>

<p>[url=<a href="http://matt.mitblogs.com/archives/2006/02/professorial_he.html%5DMatt%5B/url"&gt;http://matt.mitblogs.com/archives/2006/02/professorial_he.html]Matt[/url&lt;/a&gt;] said the other day that they're still working to select the class.</p>

<p>In past years, decisions have been finished sometime during the late first or early second weeks of March.</p>

<p>Thank you!</p>

<p>Are they going to use tubes for regular decision as well?</p>

<p>We'll know when they post that decisions have been mailed, but I recall reading in one of the admissions blogs that they probably would <em>not</em> use tubes this time. (The tubes were a way to hold the posters, which were sent because some other item wasn't going to be ready in time, I think... but my memory is a little fuzzy here, if I can find a citation I'll post it.)</p>

<p>Tubes wont be used for the RD Acceptance decisions... becuz this time their accaptance mailing package will be larger as it will also contain many things like Housing plan,aid thingy, etc. which a EA'er doesnt get with his/her Tube</p>

<p>are we getting the decisions on the pi day (3/14) again this year?</p>

<p>that hasnt been decided yet</p>

<p>Hee, the decisions were never gotten on Pi Day, they were mailed on Pi Day. You guys are trying to jump the gun! :)</p>

<p>At any rate, I believe Ben/Matt have said that they will try to mail decisions on or around Pi Day, but you shouldn't be surprised if it's a bit later this year.</p>

<p>I thought last year decisions were mailed on 3/11, and so they actually reached most people on Pi Day.</p>

<p>Does the regular admit package actually include all that? I thought you only got all that other stuff once you responded to the admit letter and accepted your spot in the class.</p>

<p>Of course, I was an early admit last year who didn't even get a tube, so I could be way off...</p>

<p>I think there's information about CPW in the RD admit pack, but the rest of the housing info. etc., is mailed separately over the summer to all students who have accepted admission.</p>

<p>There is, however, quite a bit of info sent to RD admits -- my year (and for the class of '07 as well) they sent a folder with information on CPW and other things of that nature. It even contained a commemorative certificate signed by Marilee Jones. :)</p>

<p>do RD admits get T shirts? I know im a nerd.....but i just get really excited at the thought of getting a Tshirt and wearing it the day after i get accepted.</p>

<p>Is it like around two weeks till decsions come out?</p>

<p>No, neither RD nor EA admits got t-shirts last year. But there <em>was</em> a coupon in the admission folder for 15% 0r 20% off Coop purchases, where one could buy one's very own t-shirt! :) (If you want to be sure to have a t-shirt to wear the next day, you would need to buy one now, "just in case".)</p>

<p>i have a feeling that decision date = 3/17 this year.<br>
Exactly two weeks left!!! </p>

<p>...I better prepare my supply of tissues..</p>

<p>good luck to everybody...</p>

<p>yes, good luck! :)</p>

<p>very weird cuz it may come on my b-day... :P (18th)</p>

<p>If not PI day ill settle for the Ides of March-I feel like it would be much more interesting to recant in the future. Previously, I thought I would be patient enough to wait till the decisions come in the mail (if at all given online decision option). However, at this rate, I am beginning to reconsider my position. Oh well, good luck to everybody</p>
