<p>did anyone else get a likely letter from stanford last week?!</p>
<p>I got one February 25th or therearounds from Stanford. It was almost disconcerting because it came in such a small, thin envelope. I wonder whether Stanford sends out the letters in real time as they progress through the applicant pool, or whether they are sent out in batches based on the strength of the applicants. But it does seem strange to be sending them out so late. As a side note, did yours have "Come to Stanford" scribbled across the bottom? It was a nice personal touch, but I assume it is standard for all likely letters.</p>
