<p>i still don't see what you guys are talking about.
Where can you find this on mymit?</p>
<p>Logout from MyMIT, sidewinder77.</p>
<p>alternatively, you can go to mit's homepage and click on "undergraduate" - it'll lead you to the same page.</p>
<p>mercurysquad - don't worry, I never really thought much about the gender ratio issue - was just weighing my chances at that point in time when I saw "11 March" and got a near heart attack because that's so soon.</p>
<p>Ben, has the international selection been completed? The website says regular mail, but will DHL packages still be sent to acceptees? How many days will these take to reach Southeast Asia?</p>
<p>Good luck everyone!!!! AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH... After all these months, I'm finally going to know whether my dream school wants me at all... sniffs</p>

Well now that you've clarified, let me mention - girls have 2x the chances than guys :p so good luck for the fat one!</p>
<p>COME ON GUYS WHERE ARE ALL OF YOU???? CROWD UP!!</p>
<p>mercurysquad - but then i read in matt's blog that the gender ratio of 50:50 will not be maintained, and that for the class of '08, the international male:female ratio was 70:30!</p>
<p>Wow... 03/11!!! Just 5 days to go...</p>
<p>mit_hopefulgirl - I know it takes 2-4 days for FedEx from the US to reach Thailand. I would assume DHL takes the same time as FedEx.</p>
<p>Anyway, internationals, you can actually know on the 12th or 13th if you've been accepted! Just call the DHL office of your country, and ask if there's a package from Massachusetts on its way to you by giving them your postal code. If yes, then you can certainly expect good news. :)</p>
<p>I haven't tried this method myself, but it worked last year for international CC'ers.</p>
<p>How am i going to concentrate on halo/school/weightlifting this week? Seriously, i'm going to be a wreck.</p>
<p>regular mail will probably reach CA by...3/14?</p>
<p>cool down guys!!!!!!!!!!!!! and hope 4 the best.
Best of luck to all of us.</p>
<p>geniezclone - but the 12th and 13th are during the weekend, so I don't know if the DHL office will be open?=)</p>
<p>I <em>wish</em> I were a US PR.</p>
<p>Man I think i'll just wait till pi day to decide whether I should give up hope or not... Calling the dhl office is way too scary!!! But thanks for that info geniezclone=)</p>
<p>Hmmm I dont think I can gather the guts to call and ask DHL if they have a packet! :o I'd rather wait and wait and wait and then give up ;)</p>

Agreed... :p</p>
<p>what if you're not applying as an international applicant but live outside the country? will they still dhl it if its an accept?</p>
<p>expo2005 - I should think so?</p>
<p>Anyone knows if the "2 or 3 days needed for dhl packages to arrive" refer to actual days, or working days (mon-fri only)?</p>
<p>your mailing address is not a company, right? If so, then it should arrive any time (I'm only familiar with Fedex, and I reckon both are 24/7.)</p>
<p>ooh so packages could arrive on a sunday? scary... <em>shivers</em></p>
<p>there is no mail on sunday - is it?
arghhh Im gonna kill myself before that - I dont want to get rejected :):)</p>
<p>mit_hopefulgirl - int'l selection will be completed early this week. :-)</p>
