<p>I emailed the office and was told that applicants outside the US will get the decision notification by mail and email by 20th!!! That means we will definitely get an email in 2 days!!! The mail will obviously be delayed :)</p>
<p>So my son did not receive his notification letter from admissions today but he did receive a letter from the Mechanical Engineering Department. The letter is dated Nov. 19 (tomorrow’s date) and the first line reads the following: “I am pleased to hear from the Admissions Office of your interest in mechanical engineering at WPI. I’d like to tell you a little more about our department.” </p>
<p>Am I reading to much into this letter (i.e., my son has been accepted) and has the ME department jumped the gun on their mailing? Or is this a standard letter that the ME department sends out to all applicants which identify ME as their intended major?</p>
<p>We are in Connecticut so I would expect to receive the Admissions Decision Letter tomorrow (assuming they were sent out yesterday like their Facebook page states).</p>
<p>tommc1: My son received one of those letters last week from a different dept. (his intended major), also dated Nov. 19. Came in large envelope, as your son’s prob did, so thought it might be good news. Assuming, based on Nov. date, that it isn’t related to an admit, but…who knows…</p>
<p>My mistake. I was thinking the letter was dated Dec. 19 not Nov. 19 as it is. I guess it just got lost in the mail since we just received it today. I’m sure it doesn’t mean anything then.</p>
<p>Hey everyone! I live about 45 minutes from WPI and received my letter in the mail today, so those nearby should hear soon too!
Good luck to all :)</p>
<p>Accepted! Anyone else?</p>
<p>I was accepted as well - congrats!</p>
<p>I am still waiting! I live in PA though, so I didn’t expect it today. Where do you guys that have already heard live? Pretty close to WPI I assume.</p>
<p>Yes, I live in MA within an hour of Worcester. PA isn’t too far either, though, so I hope you hear back soon!</p>
<p>Anyone receive merit information?</p>
<p>Merit award letters will come within the next 2 weeks.</p>

<p>gsmomma - Do you know if the 2 week window to receive merit letters is pretty solid. We need to make some decisions by January 10 and was hoping to hear before then. With the holidays I am not feeling confident we will hear before the 10th!</p>
