<p>As you are no doubt already aware, the single-notification date at Virginia Tech for regular decision freshman admission has traditionally been April 1. Again this year, most applicants will be notified in a mailing sent in time to arrive on April 1.</p>
<p>***Early notification of admissions offers will be mailed February 18 to those students who are admissible and statistically eligible to apply to University Honors and whose applications were completed and evaluated prior to this date. </p>
<p>If you are not one of the honors-eligible applicants to find out your decision in the early mailing, your application is still under review by the Admissions Committee and you will have your decision by April 1. The early notification offers represent only about 20 percent of total offers of admission that will be made this year.***</p>
<p>The way I read this is that IF you completed the Honors application AND got everything in to the committee early then you MIGHT get an early notification of admission. (Clear as mud - right?)</p>
<p>I know that our son’s last day to turn in his Honors application was today…something tells me that he is not going to be among the 20%…</p>
