are admissions working during the winter break?

<p>or are their offices empty?
would i be able to reach anyone if i call?</p>

<p>Most admissions offices are closed until Jan. 2, 2008</p>

<p>so does that mean that they have the things we mailed but just have not sorted through them yet? i'm so paranoid about mail getting lost!</p>

<p>I'm not sure, but I have emailed a few admissions offices some questions and they've responded... </p>

<p>Did you get your mail certified? Or put a tracker on it?</p>

<p>no ... i doubted it would get lost ... i was thinking, these bright manila envelopes with all these stamps couldnt possibly get lost</p>

<p>and everything i sent regular mail in november got there, and i got postcards a few days later from them all like 'thanks for applying! blah blah you can check your status'</p>

<p>even the one in missouri</p>

<p>I put a track number on my recs to Harvard and USPS told me they dropped it off and there was no one to claim it, so they might send it back. What's up with this?</p>

<p>can you get a track number without delivering express?</p>

<p>akahmed, That's not good. At all.</p>
