didn't yet receive letter = bad sign?

<p>International… still haven’t received anything either… Can someone shed light as to which postal service they used for internationals?</p>

<p>I didn’t get mine. Either the post office in Miami is crazy or they send rejection letter later than acceptance!!</p>

<p>jasmine – hope this offers you some consolation – mine came today and they accepted me! woop :slight_smile: GOOD LUCK! keep me posted!</p>

<p>Ok,I guess I have to be really patient^_^</p>

<p>Lorlor, what type of mail was it? priority? Fed-Ex?</p>

<p>just regular mail. :)</p>

<p>lorlor, that’s for domestic students, not for International</p>

<p>^ ohhh, right. my bad. i’m from new york. important distinction to make, haha</p>

<p>If I don’t receive a letter by today, I will assume I’m rejected.</p>

<p>no…all decisions were mailed at the same time, whether accepted/rejected/waitlisted. i am 99% sure this is true. why would they mail the rejections later? it wouldn’t make sense. plus, i got my acceptance after some international people got theirs, so clearly the date of receipt does not correlate with acceptance/rejection.</p>

<p>I asked this on facebook group and yeah all letters were mailed at same time and all the same type of mail.</p>

<p>Yeah, I keep hearing that even international decisions were mailed via USPS (can any of those who already got theirs confirm this?), so it can take a while.</p>

<p>USPS?? perhaps you mean UPS? </p>

<p>congrats to those who got in and good luck to those who are still waiting.
But BE AWARE! Minnesota’s outrageously cold! :D</p>

<p>No, I mean US postal service, which is surprising.</p>

<p>Taking decades…</p>

<p>Alright you guys, so, it breaks down like so: </p>

<p>International accepts through fed-ex. International waitlists/rejects through airmail (I believe). They were NOT all mailed on the same day, but all have been sent and went out around the same time. </p>

<p>All domestic decisions were mailed through regular mail. They all went out on the same day.</p>

<p>That’s what I thought, but turns out it’s not the case :</p>

<p>[Carleton</a> College | Facebook](<a href=“Carleton College | Northfield MN”>Carleton College | Northfield MN) – one international student confirming in comments that he got his decisions through USPS.</p>

<p>[Carleton</a> College | Facebook](<a href=“Carleton College | Northfield MN”>Carleton College | Northfield MN) Carleton College representative attesting that international decisions were mailed through ‘not express mail.’</p>

<p>I personally think it is absolutely ridiculous for a college to send out international mails NOT with Fed-Ex. I mean, if you are not going to post decisions online, at least have some respect towards those who are anxiously waiting and use the fastest route to deliver the message.</p>

<p>FedEx for sure. Someone just received it.</p>

<p>Fedex. I think the facebook answer was geared for domestics. I was confused as well as I was actually the OP ‘obsessing’ over the letter.</p>

<p>Got a call from Fedex this afternoon, should be getting my letter tonight… Nervous!</p>
