Admission notification

<p>^^ Where did you check that? When I check my admissions status it just says that they’ve received my stuff.</p>

<p>thin letter arrived</p>

<p>Just so everyone can think positive. My daughter received her letter today. She was accepted. She never received an email.</p>

<p>Still nothing for me. I would call, but I feel like there is nothing that they could tell me that would do anything for me.</p>

<p>When you call, ask specifically whether a decision has been made on your application. If so, when has it (or will it) be maile out.
In my case they said the decision was made yesterday, mailed today. Which probably means denial, cause they could not possibly put together a FA package so quickly!</p>

<p>Still waiting. Congrats on your scholarship. How are your stats, just wondering how I stand for possible scholarship.</p>

<p>To those of you who are hearing today, where (approximately) are you located? Thanks!</p>

<p>Central Maryland</p>

<p>An encouraging note- we’re in Baltimore and my daughter’s acceptance (for Spring semester) came today. Good luck everyone.</p>

<p>I still haven’t heard. I’m in San Francisco…gah the waiting game is so stressful!</p>

<p>I didn’t know American did Spring acceptances. lol I got spring at UMCP, watch that happen again. I’m in central Maryland too…</p>

<p>Still nothing for me in Southern Va. : /</p>

<p>I am just spending my time trying not to focus on this, but focus on the work that I need to be doing!</p>

<p>Hey is it wierd that I got the packet but there was literally absolutely nothing in there about financial aid? Not even saying how much I’m expected to pay; I’m just really concerned because it seems like everyone is getting their financial aid package with their packet.</p>

<p>Ok wasn’t really stressed about this til I started reading that so many have heard. My D still has heard nothing…We live in Long Island NY…anyone on LI hear anything?</p>

<p>re: L.I.-- don’t know if it means anything pro or con, but several students from our HS (in Nassau) heard late last week. All admitted.</p>

<p>I have a friend who got rejected from American with pretty good stats. I don’t know for sure, but I know for SAT, CR & W were 750+. GPA probably around a 3.3->3.5? Maybe lower. I don’t know much else, but compared with the stats of others who got in, this surprised me. Anyone have any ideas?</p>

<p>when are we supposed to find out over here on the west coast?? and does it come by mail or email??</p>

<p>Well stats aren’t everything. My Sat scores were 530CR 600M 560W, and I got in. I had a great essay, EC’s and that’s what adds.

<p>I was admitted, but for the spring semester…I think I’ll go elsewhere, doesn’t seem worth it.</p>

<p>^^ I was admitted for Spring at UMCP… decided it wasn’t worth it. Don’t do it unless it’s your absolute #1 choice… plus American is really expensive.</p>

<p>STILL NOTHING here. watef.</p>
