    I was hoping to hear today but it looks like it will be a quite day as it is the day before the long weekend and no emails. I guess that means we hear 28-31.

    I get the feeling DYS sends stuff out often in the afternoon their time. I am on the East Coast and got my e-mail after 5 pm my time.

    Thank you. I guess I am figuring that since it is a long weekend folks are going to leave early and if they were sending anything they would have sent it by now.

    Well there is only to wait and see!

    I do know I am being silly and caught up in some idea that the resources could really help us. I do believe that. But there isn't magic to this week or next month or even next year. Sigh.

    When we got ours it was late afternoon on the Friday of Memorial Day weekend. You still might see it today.

    We received an email two days ago informing us our application was complete and would be considered for June.

    Good luck everyone!

    When someone asked about responses this month on Hoagies, there was a response that Davidson was in transition and this would be the first month of applicants since the changes and they were interested to see how this might impact the application process. Anyone know what this means?

    Not sure, they have just implemented an online application (not the PDF) maybe that is the "transition."

    Bet that is it! Thanks, teachermom! Who knows, perhaps that may impact the turnaround next month... or simply simplify the way apps are handled on their end.
