<p>I received this e-mail yesterday and am wondering if everyone got it or whether it says something "more." (RD, decision scheduled for January 30.)</p>

<p>I got the same email. Doesn't sound to me like it's anything more than an acknowledgement that the app is being reviewed.</p>

<p>I've heard some say it is, while some say don't look too much into it.</p>

<p>when I applied (accepted last yr) I never got one, but ive heard of some people saying that they soon got accepted after receiving a letter like that. Are you in or out of state, maybe it has somehting to do with being out of state by chance? Anyway, good luck.</p>

<p>When I applied last yr., I got one and i got in! So possibly it is. I didn't do anything especially amazing in hs to deserve a "likely letter." But I never really looked at it that much after i read it but I definitely remember that i got a letter like that.</p>

<p>I'm on the fence about this message. I'll call it a semi-likely.</p>
