People are already hearing on this?


Yes, email received this week, but it is possible they are rolling. Two weeks from date of receipt to submit essay and video.

A likely letter. Our nephew received one two years ago and he got an acceptance a few weeks later.

Received the postcard TODAY! Male, FCPS. Our mail delivery sucks.

Congrats to those who got a postcard! That has to be so exciting (more schools should do that!)

Congrats! And don't blame it on the mail, the postcards come as they review the apps. Only sure acceptances in the first batches they happen to review get the postcard so others shouldn't worry if they don't get it. They may just be later in the review pile.

Thank you. I'll lay off USPS. 😁

Son is getting a postcard today! Excited for him, and relieved. W and M is not his first choice, but it's in the running for sure.

How would anyone know they are getting a postcard later today?

Some people sign up to receive a daily early morning email from USPS with what we can expect in the mail later that day - they provide snapshots of letters/postcards, as well as number of packages (but sometimes USPS does not list everything - I don't think they always list international packages accurately, for example). For me it's a way to check whether any packages get lost on route, as we've had mail theft in our neighborhood.

Informed delivery through USPS. We get a picture of our mail every morning.
