Marist Early Action Class of 2030 Official Thread

Any signs of white envelopes in mailboxes?

We didn’t get an envelope with her deferral, just an email. Maybe they save the regular white envelopes for the rejections. :woman_shrugging:

But best of luck to everyone on the BIG white or red envelope!!

Daughter got her envelope Yesterday Just a warning it is see through so she knew before opening She was accepted Business with 20k a year Good luck to everyone

Congratulations!!

Congratulations!!! We are still waiting to hear:)

Hopefully soon I’m sure it takes a lot longer to stuff and mail envelopes than push send on a keyboard! I like it though it’s how it used to be. I’m also learning there is just stuff out of your control. It’s all about yield % I would say most kids that get deferred will probably be accepted RD my daughter was just deferred at another school

I’m hearing that most EA applicants from our school / region have been deferred to the

regular decision pool - anyone else seeing this?

Our son just got accepted into Elon through Early Action. Elon was a high match for him. He showed a great deal of demonstrated interest. One of his friends, who has much stronger stats, and Elon were definitely a safety, and they got deferred. Schools are using this round to manage their yield. High chance our son will enroll in Elon. If his friend gets into a ā€œstronger school,ā€ there’s a low chance his friend will go to Elon.

FYI.
D26, EA. Just received white envelope. Red folder inside today, YES. Letter dated Dec 11.

Not sure we are in Mass if that helps

Marist posted on Insta that decisions are out, but we’re still waiting on my daughter’s decision. We’re in VA. Nothing in her portal or email. Is anyone else still waiting?

Marist sends their acceptances via regular mail. It might not have gotten to you yet. Good luck!

Son was accepted but no merit mentioned in his letter. Struck me as odd only because we’ve had strong $ offers from 11 other schools (Clark, UVM, Drexel, UNH, Rollins, etc) and Marist was the only one not award him a merit scholarship.
