<p>WOOHOO!! Congrats tor-dazzle!!</p>
<p>This is as close as an acceptance as they can tell us at this time, right? Or is it definite because its an invite to a reception for admitted students?</p>
<p>bwayfan...the one my son got was definite...it said "Congratulations, Welcome to the Class of 2012" and on the inside said your acceptance letter to Tisch is on the way.</p>
<p>i just got one!!!!!!!!!!! i'm SO excited.</p>
<p>did anyone get anything from stern yet?</p>
<p>WooHoo lolita22...CONGRATS!:)</p>
<p>wow since u guys r so active rite now i'm gonna ask again, do international students get invitations to the orientation?</p>
<p>congrats to everyone who got in!</p>
<p>i believe everyone gets invited to orientations.</p>
<p>International students don't get invites.</p>
<p>They'll be notified by e-mail whether they got accepted or rejected.</p>
<p>oops, must rethink my beliefs</p>
<p>Ok just making sure. Mine says "Congratulations! Welcome to NYU"...etc...my official offer to CCAS will be on its way, and I'm invited to an admitted students reception.</p>
<p>Yay :)</p>
<p>Congrats bwayfan!</p>
<p>Oops, I mean "CAS"</p>
<p>and thank you!</p>
<p>I'm an international student living in New Jersey, and I got the letter today saying "Congratulations Welcome to NYU!"</p>
<p>My friend called the Admissions Office. Apparently, these postcards are being mailed out to accepted students in waves all the way up to April 1st. Why can't they just mail them out all at once? This wait is excruciating!</p>
<p>i agree. i'm so tired of compulsively checking the mailbox. i might just lose my mind if i don't find out soon!</p>
<p>Do you know if they're still sending GSP letters along with these postcards?</p>
<p>I mean I just want a straightforward answer from NYU, yes or no?! I got that email about the National Merit Finalists (even though I'm only a commended student), and it was driving me nuts.</p>
<p>I would think the GSP letters are done? I think the M.O with GSP offers is to have them out good and early before the regular acceptances. I haven't noticed anyone on the boards post a GSP offer in like a week.</p>
<p>On a separate note: I'm with cj, it must be torture every day until April 1st...they have to stop sending these "an offer will soon follow" card the week they're sending actual acceptance packages no?</p>
<p>I'm such a nut, I'd also be shaking out every magazine piece of junk mail to see if a little post card got wedged in with the panney saver!!!!!!</p>
<p>Wow! I'm so relieved to know that I'm not the only one that shakes out every magazine in the mail and stalks the mailman. I am so sick from waiting! Cj said that they are sent out in "waves." Does that mean that if people in my school received them already then no one else will? Like does anyone know if they send out these cards by high schools or regions? I mean the people that received them are mostly CAS and GSP, so I was hoping that they were doing Tisch later. If this is not the case someone just lie to me so that I feel better haha</p>
<p>^ I'm not sure, but if that was the case (region-based) then I definitely will not get one, because one of my friends received one (granted he's a great student), but the strange thing was that his twin brother (who has better #'s) also applied to NYU and didn't receive that invitation postcard.</p>
