Early Notification Admit Letters have been mailed*

<p>2/10/12* - Over 90% of the Early Notification Admit Letters have just been mailed.</p>

<p>EN Waitlist and Deny Letters are scheduled to go out at the beginning of next week. The last Committee Review for EN applicants is happening this afternoon, which is why some of the Admit letters will go out next week as well.</p>

<p>Please be patient. The farther away you are from Rochester, the longer it will take for the letter to arrive. </p>

<p>As a reminder, if you are going to be awarded a merit scholarship (not all applicants receive them) a letter will arrive 7 business days after you receive your Admit letter.</p>

<p>If you applied for need-based financial aid, that packet will arrive 10 business days after you receive your Admit letter.</p>

<p>Thanks for the update Tyler!</p>

<p>So I was looking at my myRoc account today, and it says that my decision is one for early notification, however, I submitted my application on December 14th. Does this mean that I should be expecting a decision next week or am I in the regular decision pool? Thanks.</p>

<p>Thanks for the update! Will the myROC page be updated over the weekend? I’m still at step #4 Committee review currently.</p>

<p>Good question levinel. Once your letter is actually mailed, your MyRoc account is delayed by ~10-12 days before switching from step #4 to step #5.</p>

<p>We have this delay in place because if we switched everyone to step #5 immediately when letters are mailed, we would get 1,000 panicked “Where’s my decision letter!?!?!” phone calls with every passing day. It can really take about a week or so depending on where you live for your letter to be picked up by mail services, travel through the mysterious mail stream, and arrive at your mailbox. We are anticipating that Tuesday could be the first day people actually find a decision letter in their mailbox.</p>

<p>Our hope is that your decision letter should be in your hands BEFORE your MyRoc account switches into step #5 - “decision letter is on the way”.</p>

<p>If your MyRoc account DOES switch to step #5 and you DON’T have your letter, then you should consider calling us because there is a chance that we sent it to the wrong address. Usually the letter isn’t lost, but is still on its way. Patience is a virtue. </p>

<p>Does that make sense?</p>

<p>Shaq395 - the Early Notification deadline was on December 1st. There was no guarantee that applicants who applied after December 1st would be considered EN applicants. However, if your MyRoc account says that you are “Early Notification”, then your file must have been completed “just in time”. We had a lenient 15-day window after the deadline for students to become EN, and it looks like you barely made it into that window.</p>

<p>Thanks so much Tyler… words cannot describe how helpful you are on CC!</p>

<p>Sweet!!!</p>

<p>Will there be any indication on the admissions letters letting you know if a scholarship letter is coming?
Thank you for the update!</p>

<p>Thanks for the update! Will the international applicants get email notification? Or we need to wait for the mail version? I really want to know the result as soon as possible because U of R has always been my dream school, now I just can’t wait to see if I have been admitted or not:)</p>

<p>Everyone will receive their University of Rochester admissions decision through the mail. If you are currently in China, you will have to wait a few more days for your letter to be shipped around the globe. Good luck!</p>

<p>i<3art, the admissions letter does not contain anything related to scholarships. See the OP to guesstimate when you are likely to receive that information.</p>

<p>Will there be any notification through E-mails??</p>

<p>TSocash,
Did the less than 10% of EN letters that were not sent have to do with the time that the application was sent or was it completely random?</p>

<p>TSocash,
If on myROC it says that I am still under committee review, does that mean my decision will be coming out next week?
Thanks.</p>

<p>@soccerally, mine is still under committee review and I got my letter today. A surprise considering I live in Texas.</p>

<p>Friar93 - it typically does not have to do with the time that the application was submitted. Some of these admits recently completed the review process, causing them to miss the first mailing wave. Some of these admits are conditional (January Admit / Guaranteed Transfer Admits). </p>

<p>soccerally - there is no guaranteed timeline for when you can expect to receive your decision letter. If you are an Early Notification applicant, you should have the decision letter in your hand before the end of the month. We received a high volume of EN applications, which is causing us to lag behind our projected “mid-February notification” date. Applications sit in “Committee Review” until the letter has left our office. I explain this in post #5 above.</p>

<p>If you are a Regular Decision applicant, you should have your decision letter in your hand by April 1st.</p>

<p>got my letter today!!! screamed and called my friend who is a freshman at Rochester! woooo:)</p>

NYU Poly Honors with 100k scholarship
Santa Clara with 80k scholarship
Kentucky with 40k scholarship</p>

<p>TSocash- Sorry for my impatience, but U of R is one of my top school choices. Are you sure that if it says Early Notification in myRoc, it means that I am definitely EN? I submitted my app on December 14 and had EN checked in the supplement, but it may have been too late. I am just worried because I see people from CA receiving their decisions, when I only live 2-3 hours away. This is how my myRoc account looks like:
Entrance Term
Fall 2012
Admissions Type
Freshmen
Applying for Financial Aid
No
Application Type
Early Notification
Combined-Admission Program
Not a CAP applicant – Apply Now</p>

<p>Sorry for my impatience, but I am seriously stressed right now.</p>
