<p>@dreamhuge, I agree with your observation about confirmation.</p>
<p>Please announce in this thread if someone gets acceptance letter . My daughter has not received the confirmation letter yet . But she applied just 4 days before deadline :(</p>
<p>I got mine this past week, my app arrived a day before the due date</p>
<p>I guess this tells me that admission decisions are going to take a long time, and probably might take a month or so. For reference, I got my confirmation on the first week of february.</p>

<p>So results will be mid to late April?</p>
<p>I’ve received my confirmation. I sent it the Wednesday before it’s due.</p>
<p>How’s the campus at Texas tech? I heard the place is really hot during the summer</p>
<p>DS received his confirmation today. He sent it right before the due date.</p>
<p>I’ve been there 3 years in a row for Band Camp and it does get kind of hot, but the mornings are really nice. P.S. I live in New Mexico so I’m used to the heat.</p>

<p>sent mine out the day it was due, received confirmation yesterday lol</p>
<p>Wow! 6 weeks just to send confirmation of receipt!</p>
<p>I heard Ms. Durham is meticulous. I don’t know if its the volume of applications or that applications and recommendations come separate and have to be matched. I still haven’t got my confirmation yet and i sent it a week before deadline</p>
<p>Has anybody ever thought that perhaps they aren’t just making sure they have your application, but they’re analyzing it and processing it as well…? So perhaps it’s like rolling admissions in terms of application processing, but not really in terms of acceptances.</p>
<p>Has anyone received their acceptances?</p>
<p>@WeIsCool: I suspect the same thing. I’m betting they’re sorting the applications by quality, test scores, etc. and making some decisions right away. Then they’ll analyze the remaining apps to decide on a final 12.</p>
<p>Ah I’m nervous. Which other places did everyone else apply?</p>
<p>@ Studiousmaximus, I’m not sure I understand what you mean by that ? Are you saying that they are doing the first level filtering as they enter the scores/essays etc into the system ? Does that relate to some folks getting emails earlier than the rest ? When do we expect the results?</p>
<p>Could someone tell me the e-mail address from which you received the confirmation e-mail?</p>
<p>@quantumbyte: I’m saying that rather than just sorting the applications and sending out confirmations quickly, they are giving the apps a first read-through and (probably) rejecting quite a few on the spot (while setting aside the stronger apps for later consideration). This process would explain why said confirmations are taking so long.</p>
