I applied early decision to cmu scs. Only one other guy from my school applied early to cmu also within scs. He has Followup Letter under his documents sent, but I don’t have that written in my documents sent section. What is this, and does that mean that I probably didn’t get in? Please help!!
Did this person actually receive a letter?
@SPIOSO no I didnt receive a letter, and it isn’t written in my cmu dashboard either. I was wondering if I should be worried because it’s not there, as the only other person I know who also applied early has that written on his dashboard.
well I was asking about the guy you mentioned. I don’t think whether receiving the letter tells the admission decision though. I had that on my cmu dashboard, but I didn’t actually receive an email or a paper letter. So I’m just curious about what’s the “Follow up Letter” about and wonder if the person you mentioned received that.
Same! “Follow up Letter” appears in my “Admissions Documents Sent” section, and I have no idea what it is…? Maybe someone can call and find out tomorrow?
@SPIOSO nope he didn’t receive anything, it just shows up on his dashboard. it seems that nobody really knows what this means
This happened last year too: http://talk.qa.collegeconfidential.com/carnegie-mellon-university/1936656-follow-up-letter.html
Looks like it just means that they’re missing some of his documents.
I asked them via e-mail and they said it’s because of missing documents and suggested me to check that on “Where Am I In the Process”. but on that page it says "application complete"and I have no idea what’s missing.
