<p>Received good news a few minutes ago.</p>
<p>Yes!!!</p>
<p>where does it say?</p>
<p>wow what a bad acceptance letter</p>
<p>if it isn’t up does that mean it is probably a rejection?</p>
<p>don’t worry, they release decisions on esther alphabetically. It’s a rolling release so you’ll get your decision in the next hour or so. This is the same thing that happened with early decision.</p>
<p>thanks, chicgeek92. this is just really stressful lol</p>
<p>no it takes them a while to get to everybody…If it is like early decision then everybody should have their decision on Esther in the next 30 minutes.</p>
<p>And yes Rices acceptance letter is probably the worst out of any school. I would have liked a “Congratulations!” and “Accepted” instead of “approved”</p>
<p>In! Got an email!</p>
<p>okay ahah thank you!</p>
<p>Congrats everyone!! What does the letter say?? And still time to make travel plans :)</p>
<p>OMG YESSSS THANK YOU!!!</p>
<p>PS - Do they announce scholarship info the email??</p>
<p>I don’t think it’s alphabetically because I’m almost last.
Oh and I just noticed that at the top of the page (outside of the short paragraph), it does say congratulations… still very bad notice though</p>
<p>just got the email… it’s says</p>
