<p>Son received this email:</p>
<p>"Dear ABC, Admission to Dartmouth is need-blind ... were interested in you, your talents, and your potentialnot your ability to pay. ...."</p>
<p>Just wondering how common is it? Do all applicants receive it?</p>
<p>Thanks,</p>
<p>I think everyone got this e mail.</p>
<p>its interesting because not only have I not gotten this email, but I also have not been able to log into the applicant portal with the username and PIN they gave me (directly copied and pasted it)…</p>
<p>Just to be sure, what is the URL for applicant portal?</p>
<p>@Volynsal1
Just checking, but you are making sure that you are copy/pasting ONLY what they gave you and no spaces before or after? I had the same problem first few times since they had like 3 spaces afterwards that I didn’t notice were included in my copy/pasting… check?
Otherwise email them about it I suppose.</p>
<p>Lmao I accidentally added 2 digits to the PIN for no reason… But I still haven’t gotten an email</p>
<p>Lol is it probably cuz I didn’t apply for financial aid?</p>
<p>The email is generic. Just a confirmation that you applied for aid!! Actually the “Subject” field itself reads -“Financial Aid status update”!! :)</p>
<p>I didn’t apply for aid either but I got the email.</p>
<p>I didn’t apply for financial aid but still got the email.</p>
<p>Did you guys also already submit your IDOC stuff?</p>
<p>@laborator & undercover - All the more reason for believing that it’s a generic mail!!</p>
<p>@volynsal - Correct me if am wrong but IDOC is to be submitted only when the colleges ask for it.</p>
<p>^^ Incorrect. It is the applicant’s responsibility (if seeking financial aid) to submit the required documents to the College Board; the IDOC system then sends the packet to the identified schools. [IDOC</a> Instructions](<a href=“Home | Financial Aid”>Home | Financial Aid)</p>
<p>Not even a senior…never applied. Got the email. Maybe generated by PSAT/SAT results?
T</p>
<p>@taben1112 - That is a different mail you received. Which is more of a marketing email make you apply to Dartmouth.</p>
<p>The one present applicants received is like an e-mail update.</p>
