<p>well, is there any type of mail that's faster and better than first class? If not then lets keep our optimism.</p>
<p>yea sounds to me like everything didn't go out on one day.</p>
<p>Yeah it looks sorta like a 9x12 catalog envelope and it's white..</p>
<p>wildchartermage, does it say when your letter was sent out? I was thinking that I should compare the dates the mail were sent out. Actually, can everyone give their dates? It might be that they weren't sent out at once</p>
<p>OOPs sorry i mean booklet envelope..</p>
<p>mine was mailed out april 10th.---thursday.</p>
<p>or if anybody who's received something from them could tell us what date it was sent out that would be good.</p>
<p>XiΞiX's is from april 9th...earlier by one day. However only one trial of each is not sufficient to prove anything, more dates please?</p>
<p>This is why I would like to know the decision asap, because or else it drives you mad and make MITES the only thing that you think about. And the result is ppl like us wasting time thinking up theory and predicting MITES's every move, all the while neglecting our presently more important homework and AP test reviews.</p>
<p>the date on mine says 4/9/08 (not written like that)</p>
<p>so it seems like the acceptance letters were mailed out on the 9th</p>
<p>but you guys keep your head up.. i'm sure that the mail is sometimes slower in some places than others like i'm not sure but i think that ouraqt got his before i did and we both life in California.</p>
<p>Well congratulations to everyone who got accepted!! For those who didn't sorry ;-(. But it's not completely the end of the world. Two kids from my school didn't get into MITES but both into MIT (among other great schools) so just keep working hard and I'm rooting for you. For those who still don't have anything..GOOD LUCK!!! And for those who end up going...I'll probably meet you at some point or another during :-D!!!</p>
<p>by the way anyone have the list of who got in from CC?!?</p>
<p>If i got them right then it should be...</p>

<p>(sorry if i missed anyone)</p>
<p>congrats guys.</p>
<p>thanks!! anyone finds it strange that mit wants a reply back so soon? and if you didn't receive a letter yet, maybe that's a good thing because you might be on the wait llist and mit is just waiting to hear back from people who might not go. so there's still hope!!</p>
<p>I wonder if they even have a waiting list...</p>
<p>well, in the letter it says they do. they actualy said that they will jump up a wait listed if i don't send back their forms by friday. so there's still hope. have some hope =)</p>
<p>but what about those that have already received the rejection letter? Did it talk about you being waitlisted? its comforting to know that there is a waitlist...</p>
<p>this is directly from their letter:</p>
<p>"in order to reserve your place in the program, please return acceptance form postmarked no later than friday, april 18th, though we encourage you to inform us of your decision earlier. please note that electives will be assigned on a first come, first served basis, so you want to make sure you return your paperwork promptly. if we do not hear from you, we will give your slot away to a student on the wait list."</p>
