Email, Mail, Online Decisions....which one is it?

<p>Hey guys, </p>

<p>As of now, I am reading that the online decisions are facing a server problem. And the mail comes to me later on in the day. But what is this EMAIL business? Do colleges send you an email with the subject of "Congradulations!" etc....? When was this email expected to go out?</p>

<p>the email just tells you that your decision is online. It doesn't tell you the actual decision, you have to go to the site and enter your app ID and check</p>
