<p>If I remember correctly, your son should start getting more email communication about housing, meal plans, etc. later in the spring. They have to get the students’ mid year reports and ED admits had until Jan.15 to actually accept their placement. It may be once the regular decision applicants hear about their decisions or it may be sooner, I can’t remember the exact dates. He can start signing up for orientation times beginning Feb. 1st I believe and if he wants to apply to one of the RLC programs, he can do that now. (All of that info should have been in the paperwork that came after he received his ED notice) </p>
<p>I’ve had one to go through almost 5 years there, and one, like yours, that is on her way. We have had no problem with communication from VT. For a big school I think they do things pretty well regarding keeping parents and students informed. </p>
<p>I’m not quite sure what you are desiring in terms of “personal letters” from them. For me, I would rather them not spend unnecessary money on postage for things like that and save it for better uses like scholarships, research funding or keeping tuition down. I “feel the love” if I think they are saving me $$! :)</p>
<p>Best wishes to you both!</p>
