Maybe I’m deluding myself, but the Memphis hub is experiencing delays…
i haven’t gotten one either, but i’m not losing hope yet! Their twitter said they shipped them out 20 hours ago, so it’s reasonable enough that we might not get them yet…
I’ve had 4 packages go through Memphis since 3/7 so I think the hub is okay - a quick scans show an average of 9 hours spent in Memphis. There may be delays between the hub and specific locations but the hub is definitely processing.
Silly question…does a FedEx package definitely mean an acceptance?
Prepx3D received a FedEx envelope this AM (NOT from Andover) and she will open it when she gets home from school, but I am honestly hoping that this means good news.
I think it depends on the school? Andover acceptances come through FedEx.
@Prepx3: I think the accepted wisdom is that schools don’t pay for expedited shipping for W/L or rejections. Could be wrong, tho…
Our Fed Ex office said they were behind and packages scheduled for before 10:30 would not come until noon.
@kaibab3 Thanks for the information!

Oh gosh. What a day for weather to impact the Memphis hub.
FWIW here is the tracking info for the fedex package heading to my house from Andover. It spent ~5 hours in Memphis. It has not been dropped off at the house yet.

Where can I find news for FedEx delays in the MidWest?
Where did you get that info, RedSox? Also, thank you!
@thelittleswimmer try http://www.fedex.com/us/servicealerts/
how’d you get the tracking number?
It’s now 12:30, can I assume I’m not getting an accept? :-/
@scholarmama This is what I want to know too!
Has anyone gotten a package yet? FedEx delivered another school’s package, but not Andover’s. Does that mean I won’t be getting one from Andover?
Apparently nobody on here has received the Andover package. Maybe none of us got in (or maybe it is because they shipped last night and therefor, got the brunt of the delays?)
Which school? Was it Milton? @Snowfire88
