<p>Am I the only one that can't access their decision online right now?</p>
<p>nope...i can't either. from reading the decision thread it sounds like the first batch of letters they sent out are online today.</p>
<p>ahhh ok, cool. thanks</p>
<p>i can't either. have you at least received a packet? and are you international?</p>
<p>ps. why would they do it in batches??</p>
<p>i'm not international and i have not recieved a letter yet.</p>
<p>i'm not quite sure why they send it out in batches...maybe too much to send at once? one of my other schools also sent it out in batches but it's not a very big school so i don't know.</p>
<p>batches..does that mean first batch is accept and second batch is deny?
i really really hope not.</p>
<p>not always. at my other school they did it like that last year and it didn't go very well for them (i guess they got a bunch of phone calls from kids wondering what their decision was) and they were going to try not to do it this year but it seems like they did. from reading on this board it sounds like last year carnegie mellon did it in random batches but i don't know for this year. so far it seems like only accepted students have been notified.</p>
<p>well on cc you normally have more people posting when they're accepted than when they're denied. so i wouldn't rely on cc applicants to tell you about the batches. do you know of anyone that has been rejected? this way we can know for sure that 1st batch doesnt automatically mean you're accepted.</p>
<p>I don't know of anyone that has been rejected. I am not international: but I am in NC...which is far away? lol. But....no paper acceptance/denial, and nothing on my status page to say that they have sent my decision.</p>
<p>i saw on the cornell thread that you got a likely? haha and mathwiz got into caltech and he also has no news. this takes a load off my chest then hahaha. you guys have nothing to worry about. and i hope this means the 2nd batch is not all rejects!! :)</p>
<p>no it means all internationals are in the second batch. they are begginig to look at my file only now.</p>
<p>haha not all internationals are in the 2nd batch. my friend from hong kong got his packet today! how do you know when they start to look at your file??</p>
<p>man... I haven't gotten anything and theres nothing online</p>
<p>When I checked the Where Am I in the Process, page and logged in, my decision was posted.</p>
<p>Internationals definitely have received decisions, (my brother and I received our decision this morning as did a friend of mine). If it helps any, the page states that the decision letter was mailed on the 22nd.</p>
<p>I do know that some other International students haven't received decisions yet as well, so don't worry.</p>
<p>Will more people be able to get their decisions tomorrow?</p>
<p>I sure hope so.</p>
<p>when I got home today I was so excited to see a large envelope waiting for me in the mailbox, only to read it and realize it was some information from UVa. Oh, CMU decision, how you elude me.</p>
<p>I think it's a completely random process. But I'm glad to have a lot of response to know that I'm not the only one. :)</p>
<p>I just got my notification online - just checked it! I'm international, so I guess what k_twin said what right! (at least for some international students)</p>
