<p>And rejection letters?
What kinds of things did your acceptance/rejection letters say?
Thanks!</p>

<p>A couple years ago the ED acceptances arrived in an large overnight envelope (FedEx?)</p>

<p>I know RD acceptances have in the past come via Express Mail large cardboard mailers. I think ED ones do as well. This could change, of course. :)</p>

<p>This is how it worked a number of years ago when D2 was accepted ED:</p>

<p>The package was sent out via USPS Priority Mail Flat Rate Envelope (9"x12"cardboard) on a Thursday, the day before Dec 15. She received it at about 3:30 that Saturday- 2 hours after the regular mail was delivered. We live in the NYC suburbs.</p>

<p>I of course do not remember all this so clearly,but I actually posted it on CC at the time in case someone later on asked this question.</p>

<p>Of course it may be all different now.</p>

<p>good to know!</p>

<p>does anyone know what it was like last year?</p>

<p>if you look at last years thread one of the girls wrote that the acceptance package was “rather slim” in a priority envelope which is about the size of an unfolded letter.
like the envelope all the way to the right

@monydad – so it doesn’t come with the regular mail? Did it go to your mailbox/PO box or to your front door?</p>

<p>“the envelope all the way to the right” is the one.</p>

<p>It came separately, 2 hours after the regular mail delivery. I remember she was very bummed, because after the mail came she assumed that yet another day had passed when she would again not hear. That’s why I made my post at the time, so others would be aware that it may not come with the regular mail.</p>

<p>"Did it go to your mailbox/PO box or to your front door? "
This is a question I did not address in my post, and I don’t really remember. I think it came to the door though. One of you who gets it this year should post the procedure more clearly for benefit of future impatiently waiting ED’ers.</p>
