<p>How long did it take for everyone to get this email? I applied on January 1st and haven't gotten it yet. Should I be worried?</p>
<p>Don’t worry about it. It took about a week and a half to receive mine.</p>
<p>Okay thank you :]</p>
<p>Phew! I applied on the 31st and still haven’t gotten mine!</p>
<p>It should come in your postal mail, not email</p>
<p>where do you guys live? i live in canada, i submitted min on the 31st and i got it last week. hope this helps!</p>
<p>I was worried because all my other schools sent me a confirmation email within 3 days of my submission, so I emailed them.
Here is the email I got:</p>
<p>Due to the large volume of applications and supporting materials we have received in the last month; we have been unable to process all of these documents. Please be patient with us; and we will mail an application receipt letter during January.</p>
<p>You will be sent an application receipt letter within 4 weeks from the date we RECEIVE your application in our office.</p>
<p>Your receipt letter will also include a Admission ID Number which you can use to access your admission file through our web site at: [Admission</a> > Undergraduate Admission](<a href=“http://www.cmu.edu/enrollment/admission]Admission”>Index of /enrollment/admission).</p>
<p>Simply click on Where Am I in the Process.</p>
<p>Note: Admission ID Numbers are not given over the phone or over email.</p>
<p>I live in SoCal.</p>
