<p>Where are you guys from?</p>
<p>It looks as if everyone who's received their decisions has been from either MA or CT, both of which are pretty close to Brandeis. I was hoping that meant that my decision would have arrived in PA today, but I suppose not. Oh well, I guess the majority of us are stuck waiting until next week :) Congratulations to everyone's who has gotten in today and consolations to those who weren't as fortunate!</p>
<p>I got midyear acceptance! I enter in spring 2010 instead of fall 2009 or something like that?

<p>...A little bit upset though I'm accepted by brandeis... I'm a gateway scholar who has to move in campus july and finish summer courses for english training....</p>
<p>question. did the acceptence letters for those who got accepted, were the envelopes normal sized, or were they in larger envelopes? just so i know b4 i open my letter up wen i get it next week</p>
<p>Have any of those accepted received merit aid info???</p>
<p>Merit aid came with acceptance letters for Special Invitation applicants...</p>
<p>I don't know if it's the same for RD, but I have a feeling that if you received a scholarship RD, it came with the package. I'd call Admissions just to be safe.</p>
<p>" question. did the acceptence letters for those who got accepted, were the envelopes normal sized, or were they in larger envelopes? just so i know b4 i open my letter up wen i get it next week"</p>
<p>simple question....anyone? please</p>
<p>Larger envelopes that say "Congratulations" at the bottom! They were nice...</p>
<p>unfortunately, S can't go b/c he didn't get a merit scholarship...shame...it was his #1...then again, Shapiro lost SOOOOOOOOOO much money to Madoff, and he's a big contributor to the school.</p>
<p>omg now im scared that means if i see a normal sized envelope i know im rejected.....<em>sigh</em></p>
<p>Just trying to help, David, sorry...:confused:</p>
