<p>My mom has been making me get the mail the past few weeks in case I get a decision letter from a college... even though I told her that none of them will be coming out until LATE March/ April. Regardless, I've been getting the mail daily, and five times now (in the past two weeks) Emory has nearly given me a heart attack making me think I was rejected (the most recent being this evening). I recall in an earlier letter following my application, along with my OPUS information, I was told that I would not receive another letter until my final decision. NOT TRUE! First letter after the "final letter before decision" reminded me to check on my OPUS status, as I might have missing materials. Next letter informed me that I had not yet paid my application fee or sent in my parental consent forms (oops). The letter after that suggested I apply to Oxford College if I feel inclined to do so... and the one following that questioned the fact that I had not applied for financial aid. Oh and the lovely fifth letter tonight informed me that my application is now complete... sooo... if I get any more skimpy white envelopes from Emory, I will know the truth. Or will I? Scary, isn't it?</p>
<p>p.s. I had a nightmare last night. I got rejected from all my schools and wound up going to Devry. I wish I were kidding...</p>
