I am wondering the date when the potential semi-finalists will learn of their fates.

Judging by last year’s posts, it looks like the first semi-finalists were posting around August 22nd. There is also speculation that colleges know semi-finalists before the schools. Anyone with an opinion or experience care to fuel these speculations or refute them? Good luck to everyone.
