Ever the optimist: If you are matched, who calls -- QB or the individual school? Any idea what time of day that is?

I was always under the impression that they emailed you...Is that not true?

I could have sworn that GAMOM or someone else said you are notified by phone call. E-mail sounds less stressful to me. I'll research this a bit ...

OK, look at posts 1807 and 1812 in this thread. It says an e-mail if you aren't matched, phone call if you are. And it comes from QB not the individual school.

Oops!

Re-read the postings - 1st Match posted last year was at 4:24 PM EST (Northeast) Matched by Yale - he/she got a phone call from QB -(See 2008-2009 - Post #3394)

If you keep reading through the posts -
If Matched some got phone calls & e-mails from QB and some just got e-mails from QB -
But, if NO MATCH - definately e-mails only - NO PHONE CALL!


Does anyone know exactly how many finalists this year?? (compared to 1794 last year??)

I wonder why they'd call some people and not others. That seems kind of odd. I am going to sit by Caller ID all day and will have to work very hard not to check ds's e-mail account. I wonder what the subject line is, and does it change depending on a yea or nay? Or is it a generic "Greetings from Questbridge"?

Should I be worried if Stanford hasn't gotten any of my items? (except for common app and supplement). Princeton and Yale have gotten everything, but I am gepographically closer to those 2 schools. But, I'm worried bc I marked Regualr Decision on all the labels (like the instructions said!) and I just read on the website that regular decision thigns dont get processed until late november...

"Please be aware that we do not begin processing Regular Decision application
credentials until late November, after all of the Restrictive Early Action
applications are completed."
