letter in the mail today - a bit confused.

<p>Hey. </p>

<p>I got a latter fron NYU in the mail today. It was postmarked the 6th. And it basically says, "thank you for submitting you application for admission to New York University...they're gonna do a prelimenary review to make sure they have everything. if io havent semnt everything do so now. then it has important information about me at the bottom? Stuff like name, social security number, NYU id, school and major. Basically...has anyone else gotten this letter? What the hell does it mean? And...is it a confirmation letter? I got a confirmation e-mail november 13 ... this makes me a bit worried. was it a mistake or something? I thought I was rejected after seeing a small envelope on the table, hahahaha. But yeah if anyone knows anything, let me know.</p>

<p>I'm pretty sure that's just a really late confirmation.. That was supposed to get to you a while ago, mine never came and I called NYU to get my NYU id number and all that stuff, god I hope i don't get that too, i'll be freaked out by the thin envelope.</p>

<p>i got that too. i was freaked out cause it was a thin envelope but then i guess it was just a trial run for my future rejection :(</p>

<p>hey senior 07 ... when did you send in your stuff? </p>

<p>Also ... do you guys think that means I wont hear till later than everyone else? I wanna hear this week! ahh!</p>

<p>i had my app. postmarked by nov. 1 (i know it was late but my comp. gave me mad problems). i figured i got the confirmation letter so late b/c i did a paper application. hopefully thats the reason why and not because i was rejected or something like that..</p>

<p>Wow, we as a community are probably THE most paranoid, superstitious bunch of people alive, haha. The admissions officer that cruises this forum (NYUUGADMISSIONS is his screen name i believe) must get a kick out of us thinking the stupidest smallest little details mean something about our admissions status. </p>

<p>BTW I consider myself to be among the paranoid/superstitious group as well.</p>

<p>I did paper and had it postmarked by nov. 1 too...so thats prolly it. Did you ever get an e-mail? </p>

<p>yeah. i hope i hear this week.</p>

<p>i got an e-mail two weeks later and i called and they had everything so i am just assuming the letter was late</p>
