This is likely a troll.

Shoo-in

It’s actually shoe in, as in “one shoe in the door”. Common mistake, I understand your confusion.

Ha ha. No.

You seem confused. Or poorly educated.

A lot of schools do but not all.

Why do they do this? Why can't they wait until Monday?

DC was accepted into 4 out of 6 schools last year. 1 arrived on Thursday and 3 arrived on Friday. The schools time it with decision day, not the following Monday. They have it down to a science.

If one arrived on Thursday, it isn't science as it isn't the decision day. Only stress out those that didn't get in.

I meant for the latter 3. I’m convinced the school with the Thursday package arrival did that strategically as they aren’t a “top” school. It worked. We started imagining DC there…until the 3 stronger school acceptances arrived on Friday.

We can only hope the elite education will teach them the proper spelling of “shoo-in.”
