Accepted ED! But now what?

Colleges and Universities A-Z Pomona College

<p>I'm incredibly excited to be attending Pomona and words can't explain how happy I am. I keep thinking this is a fluke (maybe it is?! I didn't get my letter yet, just an email confirmation). I just hope this is real haha. </p>

<p>But before I get too emotional, I suppose I should get some practical stuff out of the way.</p>

<p>In the email it says that we should pay the $500 deposit, but I'm not sure how to go about this. Does anyone know? I never received an ID or password for a portal (but the website says we should have been emailed one) so I'm a little lost. </p>

<p>Maybe I should just be patient and wait for my letter =)</p>

<p>You received an email? Why haven’t I gotten anything? :frowning: Copy its content please, for a desperate fellow applicant?</p>

<p>@unenlightened: Where do you live? (I’m in Norcal). Maybe that’s a factor. Here are the contents:</p>

</p>

<p>I wish you luck! =) I know how nerve wracking it is.</p>

<p>is everyone that was accepted recieving emails or is it just people under certain circumstances?</p>

5

<p>I only got an email too, no letter in the mail! (i’m in Norcal as well)</p>

<p>i got an email today, and then a letter in the mail a few hours later (i live in the bay area). in the acceptance letter they include a form for you, your parents and school counselor to sign and then an envelope to mail the form and your check back to pomona! i guess just wait until your letter comes in the mail :)</p>

<p>the form they mailed out says the fee will be waived, which why i think they sent out an email to make corrections! hope this helps!</p>

<p>I do not have a returned envelope. What is the address on the envelope that we have to mail back to? Thanks</p>

<p>The envelope is pre-addressed to: </p>

<p>Thanks tbartlett! I just got my letter today.</p>

<p>@berrycherry: On the bottom left corner, there’s a neon yellow sticker that says “Enrollment Confirmation Material”, so maybe you want to write that too?</p>

<p>I have not received an email or a letter yet and i live in southern california. what is that supposed to mean?</p>

<p>Hey guys! Join the Pomona Class of 2016 Facebook group! It’s mostly 2015 members right now but I see some 2016’ers.</p>

13

<p>Ha, that has been a mistake on the acceptance letter for the past 2 years… and people keep finding out they’re accepted through it.</p>

14

<p>did anyone else get a handwritten note?</p>

15

<p>Hi, I have also received the mail and email which said the $500 deposit must be pain in full. But my concern is that how do I pay? Via money order, or online payment(but they never gave me online portal and stuff), or something else?thank you so much!</p>

16

<p>We just sent a personal check. You can call and ask—they are very friendly!</p>

<p>@firelily: I also got a handwritten note (about my essays). It was so nice, it almost made me cry haha.</p>

<p>@xinxin: I sent in a check in the envelope.</p>

18

<p>I sent in check in an envelope too.</p>

<p>@saraleeman: That’s so sweet! Y=I was also on the verge of tears (: I got the handwritten letter in the mail a couple of days after I got the acceptance package, so it was a pleasant surprise. I’m keeping it forever!</p>
