accepted/rejected letter

<p>For those who have received letters from Stanford, is there a difference between an accepted and rejected letter? Say, an accepted letter is usually thicker? </p>

<p>Just wondering..</p>

<p>the accepted letter comes in a big packet that says "congratulations" on the front...</p>

<p>and yeah, its thicker</p>

<p>I'm glad to hear that.</p>

<p>that kind of sucks since you know the decisions before you even open it !</p>

<p>Before the letter even comes, there's an e-mail saying you can get your results on-line. Of course, if you like the traditional mail box ritual, you don't have to log in.</p>

<p>can you really check your status online?
That'd be awesome</p>

<p>You get the admission heads-up e-mail a few days before the expected announcement date. The result is then online at the same time the letters are snail mailed, I think.</p>

<p>About when are the results posted online, relative to April 1st/December 15th?</p>

<p>For SCEA, the e-mail came on 12/8 and the results were up on 12/15.</p>

<p>Pardon my ignorance, but how would I go about checking my stats online?</p>

<p>I have told you all I know about the Stanford e-mail to SCEA applicants a week before the notification date. Some schools give applicants a PIN and website to check their regular application status as soon as it is completed. I don't know if Stanford does.</p>
