***Carnegie Mellon ED Discussion Thread***

<p>@calkid</p>

<p>My sats were R630, M760 and W680. I had a M2 800 and Chem 780 for SAT2s.
My ECs and essays were normal, probably the big factor was that i went to the Precollge and took classes in ECE and got a Rec Letter from one of the professors there.</p>

<p>has it shown up online for anyone yet? can they post a picture please</p>

<p>@catsarecats</p>

<p>I am still waiting too.
BTW, in your “where am i in the process” page, do you have “financial documents needed” section filled out?
Also what college did you apply to?</p>

<p>I have financial aid documents and MCS.</p>

<p>have you been in touch with the admissions?
hopefully, i will get my results today.</p>

<p>Nope… just waiting patiently!</p>

<p>Financial aid notification is not a big deal because I have it too. Unless you are applying for it of course :stuck_out_tongue: I hope I get in to SCS or IS(I applied ED ofc). I live in India so getting the letter will take a while.I’m also not an international student. My stats:-</p>

<p>Hi all, this is a great Post. So is there a size difference in letters of acceptance and letters of rejection/deference this year? And also, did anyone who got rejected have the “financial documents needed” thing appear in their “where am I in the process page”? Th</p>

<p>Brohit-
The Office of Admission process financial aid as well. Our site for tracking documents serves a function for financial aid documents as well. If you do not intend to apply for financial aid, you do not need to take any steps.
-Response to my email on a similar Q.</p>

<p>So it appears regardless of acceptance or denial?</p>

<p>Accepted to IS! My letter arrived yesterday afternoon and it shows up online now too. My letter was in a standard size envelope so I assume rejection letters must look very similar.</p>

<p>Congrats to everyone else who was accepted and good luck to everyone who is still waiting!</p>

<p>Anyone in California get their letters or see anything online yet?</p>

<p>Accepted to CFA Arch ED!</p>

<p>I got a non-discript white envelope on Thursday. It had 4 papers, one of them saying congratulations, etc. Thought I was denied but pleasantly surprised!</p>

<p>Brohit- Yeah it appears for everybody, chill.</p>

<p>Anyone in New York suburbs get their letters or see anything online yet?</p>

<p>Has anyone from Virginia or Maryland heard anything yet?</p>

<p>I’m like a two hour drive away from Pittsburgh in central PA, and still haven’t heard anything/nothing on the website… so yeah. Best of luck to everyone else waiting</p>
