<p>amrikanepali: Are you an international student? I haven’t received any notifications either. Could it be that acceptance letters are mailed to Int’ students via express (like Fedex), while rejection ones come in snail mails ?:(</p>
<p>I’m actually hoping that the post office lost such a big package. Till date, my experiences with mails from the US is (by comparing the US post date on the stamp and the date I receive it) that the larger the mail, the slower it takes. Colgate postcards invariably arrive in a less than 2/3 the time larger packages (with view books) take.</p>
<p>All the best to us internationals. :)</p>
<p>wj1011, both of you applied to Colgate? Also, was his post dated 11 Dec?</p>
<p>One student in my country announced that she was accepted 3 days ago (on Dec 15) And I have received nothing. If Colgate used it usual mailing service, the decision probably will reach me tomorrow (the post cards and the thick package with brochures took one week to reach my house) T_T I am keeping my fingers crossed. And good luck to everyone too :)</p>
<p>I didn’t ask him…but he received the mail yesterday…
There waas one student from my country has received acceptance letter already with a $34560 FA…</p>
<p>It took around three weeks for the brochure to reach my home…Such a long time</p>
<p>what i’ve been experiencing is that if it takes too long for the mails to arrive, its gonna be acceptance !!! thats what we’ve been experiencing here!! </p>
