Admission Notification: Email or Mail?

<p>Just wondering, do most schools these days notify by email or regular mail? I thought that nearly all of them did email, but today one of my friends got an acceptance letter from Minnesota in the mail. What do most colleges do? And if you know, what do these six specifcally do: Stanford, Michigan, Princeton, MIT, Rice, Cornell. Thanks</p>

<p>For all the colleges I applied to, I got both. The email is sent out so you get it on the day when results are supposed to come out; it takes time for mail to arrive. Within a week, you should also get regular mail. I know that’s how it is for MIT and Cornell, not sure about the others, but I’m pretty sure it works the same way.</p>

<p>Rice sends an e-mail. Princeton and Cornell have electronic notification (log-in on admissions website), Stanford is also electronic although I don’t remember if it is an e-mail or a log-in. Don’t know about Michigan and MIT.</p>

<p>Good luck!</p>

<p>they all send mail, and i think you have to say whether you also want an email (but that might have also just been on one of my supplements)</p>

<p>As you can see it varies. Generally all send a letter snail mail. For finding out before receiving letter, it will be shown in your admission file on-line or you will be notified by email or both depending on college. Note, some that notify students on-line will notify rejections only by mail.</p>
