<p>People should be getting them in the next couple weeks, just thought I'd make this thread for speculation, and finally for sharing your decision, excitement, or disappointment (hopefully not that). </p>
<p>Maybe we can wake this same thread up for when RD people get their decisions too. </p>
<p>Happy waiting! </p>
<p>P.S. Yeah, I really am this anxious!</p>
<p>Hey, yeah I am really nervously waiting a decision. Does anyone know when they get sent out? I think last year people started getting them on the 8th.</p>
<p>Hopefully we will be at school together next year!</p>
<p>So we'll only find out via snail-mail, then?</p>
<p>yeah, i was wondering if it would be posted on the app status site.</p>
<p>just wondering, how fast does carleton generally respond to emails? i emailed them once back in january, and i never got a response. but, i basically figured it out myself so i didn't really care that i wasn't answered. however, i emailed them early yesterday morning with an urgent question and i haven't heard back yet. i can see why they might be slow in january because they probably receive a ton of questions, but how fast can i expect a response now, in february? it's pretty important.</p>
<p>same here andreaaa i myself sent them an urgent mail day before yesterday and they still haven't replied. </p>
<p>also when did you guys get your status check letters?
i still haven't got mine but i got my finaid mail two days ago(dated 30th jan)- and it was sent on a slightly wrong address- luckily the postman recognized my fathers name and got the letter to us.
i think thats since the the status check letter must have been addressed to me- it probably must have been returned.</p>
<p>i never got a status check letter.</p>
<p>or a financial aid letter, for that matter. uggggh.</p>
<p>Call them! The school administratively is generally wonderfully helpful but responds best to direct contact. Emails to most colleges, especially to admission offices, can take weeks to yield responses.</p>
<p>so you guys too haven't been able to check your carleton application status?</p>
<p>Well, I got nothing today. I was so nervous opening my mailbox haha. Hopefully tomorrow!</p>
<p>whaaa? don't they make decisions on 2/15??</p>
<p>I was accepted today =)</p>
<p>hey, ellano, what did the letter look like? was it big? congrats by the way... hope to see you next year, maybe we can be roommates. :)</p>
<p>also, you people above should (and should HAVE long ago) called them. emailing urgent questions is a BAD idea. call them if you need something. </p>
<p>i filled out the preliminary app in august and recieved the letter in november.</p>
<p>i am going to die if i dont get the letter tomorrow . . . then i'll have to wait all of sunday until monday, or even, even later!!</p>
<p>i got a reply from them today...</p>
<p>congrats ellano284! and best of luck cowbell666....</p>
<p>Thanks everyone.</p>
<p>The letter comes in a big envelope. Then, there is a very nice dark blue folder inside that is closed with a golden seal, or something like that. Inside of that folder is the acceptance letter.</p>
<p>Best of luck to all of you.</p>
<p>._____________.</p>
<p>I guess ED2 is different than ED1, how ED1 the results are out on a designated date.</p>
<p>contrats ellano. I didn't get anything from Carleton today, guess I'll have to wait through the weekend XP</p>
<p>Big envelope is here, daughter's not back until tonight. If your description of the meaning of the big envelope is right she'll be so happy.</p>
<p>BTW, we emailed admissions twice and got responses 2 days later on both. I'd definitely call if it's something you need right away.</p>
<p>Congrats ellano and kcphobo's D! That's great news!</p>
<p>omg that is so exciting. You must be so proud =]</p>
