That hasn’t been our experience. Did get swag once we went to welcome events and once accepted school and sent in deposit.


Madeira sent a welcome packet with some swag in a shiny red envelope that arrived a couple of hours before results were released.


Last year, we didn’t get our Madeira swag until after decisions were released.


We got ours around lunch, I think.

Is it possible packages will be viewable today on informed delivery or the UPS & FedEx equivalents?

Doubtful. But, we're almost to the finish line. Hang in there. I'm distracting myself today with work and a house project...

I certainly recall one year ago today checking Informed Delivery and both UPS and FedEx for info (and seeing nothing). The schools go to pretty significant lengths to make sure that you don’t receive it early. That said, depending on the school, your “highest probability” of info is from UPS and FedEx as they are actually accurate whereas USPS is a total crapshoot. Both UPS and FedEx offer services that track both inbound and outbound packages.

As it turned out, our kid’s now current school sent a letter and swag that arrived on Saturday (as I recall). I know for sure that nothing arrived on Friday.

Don’t over think it. Tomorrow will come - best of luck.

Nothing from schools in my informed delivery email today. (As I expected!)

When would we expect to see packages in FedEx? I don't see any shipping labels created so far...
