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!

I'm TERRIFIED already

@sup:
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!

shruthibaskaran · 03-27-2008, 09:59 AM

(Indian Time)

Scaryyyyy!

This is so so so sudden.....

I am not READY for another rejection.

3 pm Stanford time? Meaning 6 pm over here on the east coast?

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
