MITES 2012 Information and Discussion

<p>No doubt. I’d rather just open a piece of mail inadvertently and see the words “I’m sorry…” or “Congratulations…” It would be so much easier.</p>

<p>This… this is pain. I mean, what if my internet goes out while I’m logging on. I might legitimately have a heart attack before realizing that my internet actually went out and that MITES had not posted my decision yet, insinuating that I was rejected.</p>

<p>Even though I’ll be rejected anyways :p</p>

<p>Do we know a date yet for when decisions will be posted online?</p>

<p>No snail mail… >.< Idk if that’s good or bad. Lol</p>

<p>I wanna know the actual date though!!!</p>

<p>My prediction is: 4/16</p>

<p>I really hope it’ll be earlier.</p>

<p>My prediction: 4/12
My decision prediction: Rejected (I’m hoping against all hope that I’ll get in, though!)</p>

<p>nater17: can u please post the email they sent you so that we may know more details?</p>

<p>So, to answer that question, there is no definite date; they only stated “mid-late April”, which doesn’t make too much sense either.</p>

<p>I must predict… 12/21/12!</p>

<p>^ Which is strange… because in past years, decisions have been released early-mid April.</p>

<p>Oh well.</p>

<p>with so many applicants i am sure they will save lots of $$ that way</p>

<p>but will they have a definite date in which all application status’ (rej. or acc.) will be posted or will they continue to add starting in mid-april and going until late?</p>

<p>the latter i believe</p>

<p>It would make more sense if they just released them all at once (hopefully). Or they could do what they did in 2009 where they released acceptances around April 5th and continuing on and gave people until April 13th to confirm their attendance. Then, they sent rejections at or around April 13th.</p>

<p>that would be tomorro :)</p>

<p>do they usually do snail mail, email, or post on website (as they apparently are doing this year)</p>

<p>Looking through past MITES threads, they would typically snail mail decisions.</p>

<p>do you think this MITES class will be the largest?..there has to be an unusually larger number of applicants if the website crashed a few times this application process…right?</p>

<p>Hopefully :o</p>

<p><em>sigh</em> i think waiting to hear back is the hardest part of the application process!</p>

<p>Today I walked to the mailbox hoping that my letter would be there… when I saw only small envelopes I started chanting “they haven’t sent it yet, they haven’t sent it yet”… I think I need to find out for my mental well being. Actually, scratch that, I need to GET IN for my mental well being.</p>

<p>well, there’s barely anyone around to keep this thread afloat… my speculation is that there are less applicants this year, or at least less applicants brave enough to go on CC and post. <em>coughforumcreeperscough</em> As for the website crashes, perhaps our app due dates coincided with something happening in undergrad admissions or a couple of applicants uploaded 9999 page essays. :P</p>

<p>Decisions will be visible on your application account page.</p>

<p>Ugh, I wanna know the day though )=</p>

<p>Even though decisions are supposed to show up online, I just checked the mail and my heart stopped because there was a white envelope from MIT, but it was just for my parents since my brother goes there :/</p>
