<p>fenwaysouth “In summary, here’s been our VT experience: we found out by total accident that VT changed the online Admission ED date. We were NOT notifed of this date change via email or postage mail. We logged onto the Admissions Early Decisions portal to find out if he was accepted. We immediately paid a $400 deposit and received a brochure package of general information (3-4 weeks later) which did quench our thirst for information at the time. My son told us there has not been any further emails. The fact that the school did not communicate the ED admisions ED date has not sat well with us, and we wonder if the school has some communication challenges. Nonetheless, he is waiting patiently for more information and instructions.”</p>
<p>Are you referring to VT providing ED admission decisions a couple of days early? Who is irritated by the level of communication - you or your son? I’m wondering whether you are a type-A personality and letting your thirst for information run wild. I’m not knocking you as I’ll readily admit that I’m the same way. I’ve gotten over it though since I’m on son #2 going to Tech. </p>
<p>In my experience, all of the information that VT sends you (now or later) is readily available on their website. The one knock I have on VT.edu is that it’s truly a WEB and I’m still finding new pages of information. But, if you want to quench your thirst you can explore all the nooks and crannies of the Engineering websites.</p>
