How Schools Notify Applicants

I think that’s a great idea. @thelittleswimmer

I believe @stargirl3 created a spreadsheet a while back similar to the one with M10 Decisions, but this time it had a list of CC members and from there, those CC members could put down what schools they applied to, which schools they were accepted to, waitlisted, rejected, etc.,

Anybody interested in doing a spreadsheet like that again?

Sounds cool. Let’s do it!

@thelittleswimmer

Which means that it is not allowed, and I have to edit it out.

Another update regarding Choate:

On Mar 10, 2014: the GoChoate website gave out admissions notifications (3 pm). No other packet arrived on M10.

Mar 13 or Mar 14: we received a large packet from Choate using first class mail. Included was a large folder with a bunch of letters, as well as a pillow case with the Choate logo.

The day school that I go to needs the re-enrollment contract by like the 10th of February. You can easily just put them off until you’ve made your decision.

@skieurope I’m not allowed to post the link to my spreadsheet?

@stargirl3 If the link has asterisks, no.

@stargirl3: Do you still have the link to your spreadsheet a while back that had a list of CC members and from there, those CC members could put down what schools they applied to, which schools they were accepted to, waitlisted, rejected, etc.,?

I want that link as well…couldn’t find it.

It’s on the first page of this thread.

I lied. It’s here: http://■■■■■■■.com/ccprepschooldecisions2014

How is the decision email formatted? Is the decision itself the body of the email? Or does it come with a link that you have to click on?

For Andover you stated that decisions will be available at 5:00 pm on the portal. Where / how might I access the portal?

@joyfulwanderer: Andover sends a FEDEX package on the morning of M10 to all accepted applicants. I haven’t heard anything about the portal so you are not alone. I’m guessing that they will probably send us login info in an email on M10 or maybe the evening of M9, but I’m not sure. Try contacting the admissions office.

@mathman1201 Some tell you in the email, and some link to a portal. If it’s a portal you’ll probably have to know your login info beforehand.

In another thread somewhere this very question was addressed. Apparently Andover sends notification to all applicants in early March with portal info.

Does anyone know if Kent will release decisions again at M9? Was it a special thing last year or do they do that every year?

All the schools, I think, did that last year, as M10 fell on a Sunday, and (Harry Potter reference) there’s “No post on Sundays!”
