From last year:
Adding to the package conversation which usually heats up a little later, like March 7th or so –
Certainly getting the alert can often mean good news. But the reverse is NOT necessarily true.
I remember one year we got only about half the alerts that others got, despite having all the informed delivery options, etc. So just know that if you do NOT get an alert, it does NOT mean that you aren’t getting accepted. My daughter got into several schools that others had shared about packages alerts here on CC and we just didn’t get any alert for them.
