A reasonable expectation is that the week after Labor Day will be used for final decisions, including getting the approvals from higher authority. That includes committee voting on the finalists, narrowing it to the final 20 and then to the top 10.
Then, they check available records on the finalists names, including a google search on each name (looking for things that might make specific finalists embarrassing).
A deadline of Sep 6 for the decision, followed by notifications early the week of September 9.
Did you include your phone number with your submission? There was no place for it to be entered; you just had to add it.
Formal notifications, of course, would be by mail. First class mail reaches most people int he USwithin 5 days, so the first envelopes would get to people Sep 10 through the 13.
