@rrhelp people from past years said admissions told them usually about 150 to 200 people get early writes, so most of the admitted class doesn’t get them.

how is your weighted lower than your unweighted? @Smythe

@aurthur sorry that was supposed to be 4.4

@aurthur I’ve done policy, parli, and pf. Mostly Parli and PF this year.

Congrats to everyone who received an early write! Was it online or in the the mail, just out of curiosity?

@skidude722 they sent me an email with a link to my decision. I haven’t gotten anything in the mail at all yet though

Wow five people from my school got early writes yesterday, that’s pretty cool

5 early writes from one school! That’s stellar! Which school do you go to? Private? Public? Massachusetts?

Whoops spoke too soon. We had 3 early writes (2 others got acceptances from a diff school). Public in NYC (a little under 200 per grade)

Gosh… they release the RD notification so late. This is the one school that mentally I need to plan for!

i didnt get a likely letter on the 15th, but I got an email asking for more financial aid information. -_- does this mean that I will get waitlisted? if they wanted me, they would’ve just gave me a letter, and worked out the financial aid stuff later right? :’( :’(

@Marcelleparcelle I don’t think that it necessarily means that you are waitlisted. It could mean that they are going to accept you.
