Acceptance Email From Coach?

Colleges and Universities A-Z Carnegie Mellon University

<h2>I got an email from a track coach of a university that had the subject of "FAFSA Information" and in it it said:</h2>

<p>"my name"</p>

<p>Once again we would like to CONGRATULATE you on being accepted to Carnegie Mellon University!!! The regular decision letters will begin to be sent out on March 22nd.</p>

<h2>If you are applying for Financial Aide, you should have filled out the FAFSA forms and CMU's Financial Aide Application. IF you haven't here is the link for that information:</h2>

<p>and then it goes on with some info on fafsa.
Can a coach email me telling me I'm accepted or is it most likely a mistake? I'm really happy if I got in because it is one of my top choices, but I'm being very skeptical and wary. Could there be a chance that it's an accidental email? And if so how would this situation work out? Hahaha I want to be happy but I also don't want to be too optimistic.</p>

<p>Also did anyone else get an early acceptance kind of notice?</p>
