| OMG, I called and they said that some decisions were sent out last week!!! *Gasp* (I'm not 100% positive about this, as the lady herself was uncertain about the numbers. SOOO Did anyone get one? ) |

| Haha I called too, and the lady said they were sending out the first wave this week. So regardless of who was right, it seems like we should be hearing pretty soon! If anyone gets good news let us know! | |

| Well, I was told so anyway, but then again, I was also told that they did just send out the first wave. Of course, 'end of May' 'next week' 'this week' all tend to get confused and convoluted and I don't really know better than the next person *shrugs*
Just heard they were overenrolled, though... | |

| So is it possible some people have already been accepted off the waitlist? | |

| So wait...which one is it? Have they been sent already, will they be sent this week, or are they over enrolled? | |

| I think we need someone to speak to an actual admissions officer for us to get accurate info on when these decisions are going out, how many, in what form etc.
So far all we've been getting are varying responses from someone almighty called "the lady" who's seemingly able to pick up everyones calls and yet reveal nothing. | |

| Hey everyone
I just joined cc because I've been reading for a while, and have found the advice on here really helpful. I am a student from Canada.
I was on the waitlist for Brown 2012, and I just got off yesterday. They called me telling me that I was accepted. They also said that they are sending the first wave of waitlist acceptance letters by courier today....so some of you should be hearing really really soon!
I hope that helps! Let me know if you want further details.
Best of luck to all of you, I hope it works out! | |

| Congrats woof50!!! and thanks for the info
plum, other schools seem to do the reverse, call americans and send letters/emails to internationals because the time difference makes it inconvenient. Brown used to only send out letters so it's surprising woof got a call at all, maybe they're doing things differently this year.
But then again Brown always did things differently and that's why I love it! | |

| When should everyone who is accepted receive "the call"? Is Brown calling everyone or just internationals? What about US students...is Brown sending them acceptance letters via mail only? | |
