<p>Does ur e-mail inform u that u will receive on the 14th?</p>
<p>NO, the same as you, on the 13th. But I do not think I will receive it today. Isn’t it still "initiated’ ?</p>
<p>I think the 13th may refer to 13th in the us.</p>
<p>Does this mean that decisions will be posted on esther on the 13th for U.S people?</p>
<p>apyyyy
I don’t think so.</p>

<p>Newest info from Rice phone receptionist:（which is reproduced from another forum)
Q: if all admission letters for int’l applicants are being sent to applicatints using FEDEX these days?
A: YES.
Q: i have heard that some others applying early decision to rice have received an email from fedex including a tracking number of a package mailed from rice university. since i havent receive that kind of email, does that mean that i am rejected?
A: not necessarily. the info will be available on esther on dec 15</p>
<p>@wayarerice Thanks for the information! :]</p>
<p>Any news? Did anyone get a letter yet?</p>
<p>I’m also curious if there is any news.</p>
<p>fellows, it seems that we would not receive the Fedex until 15th, because Rice only update the information of shipment on the Fedex, but have not sent the package yet.</p>
<p>yeah,I agree…the status is still “initiated”…</p>

<p>haha thanks!..yall! haha

<p>Hi, wondering about the international students and if the FEDEX packages have arrived? Don’t forget to post your acceptance status, etc on the acceptance thread!</p>
<p>grace - decisions will come out later today (from history, around 5 pm). Don’t worry.</p>
<p>Also wayarice, I was abroad when I got my decision as well. I did not get a notification prior, just an acceptance package by FedEx. A Nice large fedex package :)</p>
<p>…wow.~.anyway,I am admitted!..good luck everyone!</p>
