<p>The wait to get a decision from Bowdoin College for my Early Decision is a long wait. I believe the website says that the notification if “mid-december”.</p>
<p>Does anyone specifically know when the letters ill go out and, if I am from MA, when will I receive it?</p>
<p>they say mid-december and i'd bet its because they honestly don't know when they'll be done exactly..it's wiggle room</p>
<p>This year they received 10% more ED apps than last year...so i'd bet the date that letters go in the mail closer to late december than early...</p>
<p>crap....this kinda sucks....i think i am going to have to write my RD essays and do all of thosee applications still. I was hoping to wait and see what happens before I had to start doing them so just in the off chance i get in. i wouldnt have wasted any time</p>
<p>Wondering if anyone has any updates on when the early decision letters will go out. Has anyone called to ask? If so, please share!</p>
<p>Last year the ED1 letters went out on Dec 13 but Dec 13 falls on a Saturday this year so probably give or take a day or two.</p>
<p>I hope they send them on the 12th
But since I am in Idaho it will probably take longer for my letter to get here....do most people get letters within 2/3 days of the day Bowdoin send the letters?</p>
<p>I was back there a few weeks ago and the director of admissions said December 8th to the 10th. It's the 8th today, but given they have more applications this year, it may take them longer. Good luck to all!</p>
<p>My counselor got a call today from them about quarter grades....so unless Idaho was like the last applications i doubt they went out today...i would be willing to be that it is either thursday or friday when the send letters out</p>
<p>it's so soon...</p>
<p>i'm from NY and 2 kids were notified of their acceptances on the 15th last year so my guess for this year is probably between the 15th and the 22nd.</p>
<p>7% more apps this year than last. probably closer to the 22nd then the 15th.</p>
<p>a coach told my friend at bowdoin that they sent them out late last week, and they should be arriving between the 10th-12th.. it makes me so anxious..</p>
<p>that early?! ah, i'm not ready for that..i was hoping i would have a few more days to prepare for the worst..</p>
<p>Is it pathetic that whenever I see a post office, i think about how my letter could be there?</p>
<p>Not pathetic at all, I've nearly had a heart attack everytime I checked the mail the last few days...</p>
<p>haha. It doesn't help that all my friends and teachers are asking me every second of the day "did you get in?"</p>
<p>i wish i lived closer to Maine...i bet i am the last one to know
and i dont know if they sent them out last week because my counselor got a call yesterday at 8 in the morning about my quarter grades.
So maybe for us who are less fortunate and located on the frontier they are sending them out later</p>
<p>zfox - they all get sent out the same day (or at least that has been the practice in the past). The fact that your counselor got a call yesterday about your grades implies that they haven't quite finished the process although they may have made their decisions and could just be crossing their t's and jotting their i's by checking the most recent grades . . . .</p>
<p>Im glad they got my most recent grades...they will definitely help me
straight As so far this year with 4 APs...im pretty happy.</p>
<p>i called admissions today and they said that they would be sending them out between the 15th and 20th.</p>
