Congrats outdoors12! So happy to hear you will be part of the CC community.
(So envious that you have received the decision, waiting on an ED to a different school for S2 here and going a bit insane :-) )

we just called the school, and they said not all ED letters went out at the same time, I thought they all had to be mailed together, they said this is not the case? Do you think they have to say this? And that rejections are mailed after the first mailing? Could they really be mailing acceptances not at the same time?

I no longer have a horse in this race, but I never was under the belief that they were all sent at the very same time. In fact, my S got his EA fairly early in his year.
Every year the threads indicate the ED and EA acceptances come in waves, but I seem to recall that they all get there by the announced dates for release. The only exception was one year when there was some winter white out that delayed the mails in one area.

Good news in NJ! My D is thrilled. A lot of tears of happiness. The mailman didn't arrive until 5:30. Good luck to everyone...this is a tough process to endure.

5 boys don't be discouraged. i've been reading this blog since the day we got the EA/ED email. my son's stats are very similar to yours, and he also switched to ED. i've been doing anything to keep myself distracted from calling admissions and tackling our mailman. i do think the letters are sent in waves, and my son got a nice letter. i know its frustrating but i really think you are in good shape. best of luck to those still waiting to hear!! i'm going to keep watching and sending good thoughts

By the way, parents and students, Kiplinger ranks Colorado College as the 11th best liberal arts college in value.
