<p>Will Caltech send out acceptance letters to RD candidates/ housing information, other forms etc. by regular mail this year? Has anyone received anything?</p>
<p>Yet to receive anything.</p>
<p>I have not.</p>
<p>You won’t receive decisions by snail mail. Everything’s electronic. However, you will receive housing stuff etc by snail mail.</p>
<p>@Kamikazewave</p>
<p>So we won’t receive anything before confirming the school? </p>
<p>That’s really weird.</p>
<p>I had the same question as dawncoming. So as the decisions have been communicated electronically, so there will be no follow up letter by snail mail? Or other information?</p>
<p>^ Financial Aid info probably via snail mail.</p>
<p>Didn’t apply for FA. :(</p>
<p>^ I just checked and finiancial aid is through a website as well. So I guess no nothing is really done via snail mail.</p>
<p>Financial aid offers are emailed via password-protected PDFs.</p>
<p>This is a real TECH school :D</p>
<p>The only thing I got in the mail was basically the copy of an email telling me to visit Caltech, and that they’d pay for transportation. </p>
<p>Did anyone already get financial aid online? I haven’t gotten anything about it =/</p>
<p>I didn’t even get that</p>
<p>Give them a call or email if you haven’t received your offer yet. We also did not right away, and in checking with them there was an error on their part on my son’s file. It was fixed and we were told we’d receive our offer this week.</p>
<p>hmmm, I called them and they did not seem to know anything about this e-mail and paying for transportation. They told me that any details on the pre-forsh weekend etc were on the website, but they had not sent out any e-mails to admitted students.</p>
<p>bookgirlx3 and livnlrn, do you have any information on this offer. Thanks</p>
<p>From my email: “We want to be sure that you visit Caltech as you consider your options and would like to offer to pay for your airfare to Los Angeles and ground transportation from the airport to campus.”</p>
<p>I’m thinking it might just be for people who can’t afford to go, or some minority-targeting thing. It doesn’t do me much good though, I don’t have the time to visit D:</p>
<p>Also, I think livnlrn is talking about financial aid offers instead of the transportation.</p>
<p>ah OK. Caltech is a great school and if it is on your list for serious consideration, I would strongly suggest you visit. I think it is important for you to visit, but I can understand if logistics come in the way.</p>
<p>one of my friends said that he’s got his FA letter!! wow! I wonder if anyone here got his or her FA letter too? </p>
<p>and paper version of the admission letter? :(</p>
<p>GeekSon got in EA and never got paper. His admissions (last December) and fin. aid (last week) were both electronic.</p>
