<p>Just received a huge letter saying “We Choose You.” Good luck everyone!!! </p>
<p>Has any international student heard about his/her decision via mail or email yet?</p>
<p>@Rootsian Nope… I’m afraid that maybe I was rejected</p>
<p>@YvonneYang Yeah I think so too. Let’s just hope for the best!</p>
<p>Admitted today with a very generous financial aid package. Keep checking your emails every 10 minutes. Good luck to all you guys.</p>
<p>@Rootsian Let’s pray!
@teddy96 Congratulations and thank you for suggesting </p>
<p>@teddy96 Congratulations! At what time did you receive the email?</p>
<p>@Rootsian
I’m an international student, and I was actually contacted by “snail mail” yesterday. I also received an email, but something like 3 hours ago. Accepted with 95% aid</p>

<p>Just called admissions. Decisions will be on the portal this evening. They said some decisions were mailed and others would be on the portal. Seems to me that only acceptances were mailed and rejected will be on the portal.</p>
<p>When exactly did they mail admissions?</p>
<p>No decision yet…</p>
<p>I received my acceptance email at 9.10 p.m (in my country), which was about 10.10 a.m in US.</p>
<p>Just keep a postive attitude, keep checking your emails. Maybe they just send mail/email in waves to ease the process. Still haven’t heard anything doesn’t mean you are rejected. </p>
<p>@teddy96 can you tell us your stats? and if you applied for financial aid? </p>
<p>Decisions are on the portal!</p>
<p>I got waitlisted… but I kind of feel a little happy. I am an international student with a HUGE need (almost a full ride) with regular stats. I though I was going to be rejected like the other 3 schools I applied. </p>
<p>SAT: 2090 (M: 750, CR: 690, W: 650)
GPA: 3.85 UW
IB Diploma</p>
<p>Let’s hope I can have a chance in the future.
Good luck everyone!</p>
<p>@Guiller19 Thank you for telling me the news immediately! I was also on the wait list. I really hope that I have chance to be enrolled finally.
Good luck!</p>
<p>I also got wait listed </p>
<p>Looks like everyone who was accepted in the US received their acceptance by mail a few days prior to the portals being updated and everyone else was waitlisted or rejected after the letters arrived. </p>
