I don’t actually think it will be today now — nothing has budged and no social media anything :sob:

I agree. Plus the snow has closed campus until noon on Tuesday.

What do we think, anxious parents of CC?? Today or nay?

What I want: good news today!

What I think is more likely: Snow has delayed their intent and release will be tomorrow or Thursday evenings.

Me too! :sob:

I think it could still be today, even with the late opening. But I also thought it would be last Friday, so clearly I have no idea.

Waiting with a mixture of hope and dread. My son wants this so badly. I didn’t realize how much until, a few months ago, I told him about the path to admission for waitlisted applicants - and he surprised me by saying he’d be all in for that, go to the local community college there or study abroad in the fall, with hope of admission to WM in the spring, instead of elsewhere. He did get acceptances from 2 schools already and we liked both - but I suspect he’d still wait it out for WM. So - acceptance or even deferral, c’mon universe! :winking_face_with_tongue: Wishing everyone luck.

Someone posted on the Reddit thread that they called admissions and confirmed release today, Tuesday Dec 9 at 5pm. Not sure how reliable the poster is but we shall see!!

For what it’s worth, and probably not worth much - but I confess I broke down and called last Friday. I got the impression that the kind person who answered already knew the date, but they checked and weren’t allowed to say more than “early December.” But maybe, if there was already a planned date, the snow won’t have impacted that? I really have no idea. Speculation is fun. (Acceptance would be more fun, though.)

No prob! I just hope they have legit insight and we’re not getting our hopes up for nothing!

When I went through this with kid #1, the few times other parents here reported that they’d called schools and been told a release date, they were right. (I’d never called before myself.) So - fingers crossed!

Decisions are out. We didn’t get an email yet - checked the portal at 4:55. My son was denied. It’s awful to see him so sad.

Best of luck to everyone else!

Ugh, so sorry to hear this. Such high pressure for everybody :frowning:

Hugs to those with not good news.

My son got in (in state, nova) and also accepted to Monroe Scholars which was a great surprise.

So relieved!
