So we should all check our status now

<p>Last year around this time some applicants had this on their application status page:
Decision Period: REG: Mail Early
these were the people who got early notification

<p>so does anyone have this?</p>

<p>just checked, don’t have it.</p>

<p>it seems those who received early letters last year either mailed their applications early (mid decemberish) or were particularly strong and noteworthy applicants.</p>

<p>i mailed my app mid december, and my status says Decision Period: REG</p>

<p>yea, i just have a REG too.</p>

<p>My decision period is REG too. But I wouldn’t worry about it. The site isn’t really for early notification, only to check whether you have your stuff in.</p>
