[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It’s William and Mary’s version of a likely letter. It’s a postcard that says they’re basically going to be accepted. [/quote]

Why would they do this?[/quote]

So kids know an acceptance is coming. Could have helped my son last year. Had EA admits in by mid-Feb and only had W&M remaining for RD. If he had gotten a postcard, we'd have gone and visited around that time. We debated going, but he preferred to wait and see if he got in, and I agreed (we'd been there a year prior, so he'd at least seen it). By the time his RD acceptance came in late March, he'd already mentally committed elsewhere, and it was a losing battle trying to convince him to go revisit W&M in April.[/quote]

NP. Ah that makes sense. These RD schools lose good candidates. My kid applied to W&M, and a few other RD schools, but honestly they’re leaning toward awesome EA schools they got into! I wish W&M did it earlier. [/quote]

It seems they are doing this because they don't have EA or in lieu of EA.[/quote]
