After 3pm?

I heard that the notification times for EA were up to 3 hours apart. Does this mean I could be refreshing my computer for hours before I get the e-mail?

Yeah, unfortunately. I had applied EA, and the website said they'd be "sending them out in waves" after 3 p.m... I ending up refreshing for ages, didn't get my email until 6-6:30 or so. :[ haha it was miserable!

My advice: Go see a movie or something at 3. When you come back, it'll be there, and whatever the decision is... well, good luck sir! I'll be hoping for you!

Yeah pretty much. Funny story actually. Basically, I waited for 4 hours, frantically checking facebook, myspace and college confidential to find out why and then distract myself from the the fact that my email was not in my mailbox

3 pm pacific time is around 4.30 am Indian Time. I will be checking in the morning around 9 am or so, just in case. But I doubt if I am going to get any sleep!

Is the result coming tomorrow or day after?
(This is horrible! But my NYU letter made me feel so good just before my History paper - which I hadnt studied for).

I wonder how miserable am I going to be tomorrow!

i applied SCEA to stanford this year and the admissions office was supposed to send decisions at 3 pm PST too. however, most of us didn't receive anything until 6 pm, ..after 3 brutal hours of waiting.

moral: don't panic if you have to wait a couple of hours for the email...and you probably are gonna end up waiting

I didn't get mine until 8:30 EST. (Which is probably the 6 Senioritis is mentioning, but I'm not sure that's PST )
