How does Stone Ridge notify applicants?

You get a letter with gator-fetti in it.
They called our daughter too to see if she was accepting as she was offered a scholarship.
I assume that if she didn't accept they would have immediately moved on to the next girl on their list for the scholarship.

Good luck to your DD.

Admissions office is wonderful aren't they?

Does anyone actually have definitive information or are all of these responses from competitive parents at other schools who are trying to throw me off the scent?

How much will I annoy the admissions people if I email them now and just ask?

Oh don't email them. Just go about your life and be surprised when something arrives, come on now...

Don't!

I didn't hear by March 2nd last year so I did call. I was reading this board and started to panic when people said they already received answers from Stone Ridge.The AD was very nice and didn't seem put off by the call at all. I would say if you don't get a call or email by March 1st, call the AD.

They will never be irritated with you - pretty much they are unfailingly nice.
Good luck!

We received an email and a letter. They called to follow up. The admissions office is great. I wouldn't bug them this week, just because they are so busy, but next week if you don't hear anything, I am sure they wouldn't mind a call.

During a conversation with AD she ended it with "you will hear over the weekend"

That was sobering.

When I asked when we would hear (after discovery day), the AD told me 3/1 by mail but I think she also said something about email.
