Muticultural Celebration Weekend Invitation

Colleges and Universities A-Z Washington University in St. Louis
1

<p>I recently got an invitation to WashU's multicutural celebration weekend sent through priority mail. It was just a single flyer in the big envelope. But in the top it says "Dear Admitted Student, Congratulations on your admission to Washington University in St. Louis!"</p>

<p>This is the first thing I've received from WashU though (other than the postcards), and I don't see anything about my decision when I checked on their website. So does this mean I am actually accepted? Are they going to send me a more formal notice later? Thanks!</p>

<p>Sorry, there was actually a letter of admission in the envelope; my dad only gave me the flier. Hope to see some of you CCers at multicutural weekend!</p>

<p>from Wash Univ this morning.
Can't open it yet. I am driving to his ball game to let him open it.
Wow. I hope it is a YES for him.</p>

<p>I got the priority mail envelope from USPS today too! Very exciting! It's sort of an unofficial-official acceptance letter, it says they'll send the official one in a few weeks.</p>

5

<p>i got accepted too!!!! i'm so pumped.</p>

6

<p>To what undergraduate school did you guys apply to?</p>

7

<p>CAS first choice, Engineering & Applied Science second choice.</p>

8

<p>I also applied to CAS first choice, and Engineering second choice.</p>

9

<p>where are you all located? this makes me nervous and worried.</p>

10

<p>i live in southern ohio.</p>

11

<p>wow congrats. i live in VA so hopefully monday or tuesday sth will ccome</p>

12

<p>I got invited to this as well as the Olin spotlight weekend...I don't think I'll attend both though.</p>

13

<p>Does getting an invitation imply a scholarship in anyway if you didn't apply for one?</p>

14

<p>is it for minorities or everyone admitted?</p>

15

<p>Ok, I have a quick question....:</p>

<p>Am I considered a minority?</p>

<p>I'm half-Filipino/half-German...... </p>

<p>It's funny, when I was in elementary/middle school... I marked my ethnicity as "Pacific Islander".....then around junior high I started marking "Asian".........now I mark "other."</p>

<p>Le sigh...</p>

16

<p>jtslick89- I have the same question. I'm half Chinse-Indonesian/half Indian.</p>

<p>and johnnydr87- I'm pretty sure you'd count as a minority- or at least "multicultural."
Sometimes I hate the whole schbang...but hey...if it helps get me into college I'm not about to complain.</p>

17

<p>wow. their registration date is quite ridiculous. </p>

<p>March 29th, just before we can hear any notifications from other colleges so if we register for WashU's weekend I will miss out on going to Harvard/Stanford's weekend if I am also accepted there.</p>

<p>Now I'm worried on whether I should take the sure thing weekend and register for WashU's weekend, or hold out for hopefully an acceptance letter and a weekend somewhere else on the 20th.</p>

<p>What if I register and don't go? I wouldn't mind losing the $25 that much..</p>

<p>Hmm, what a terrible dillema.</p>

18

<p>Where do you live? If they are flying you out and have already bought plane tickets for you, I think you might be responsible for that if you cancel... </p>

<p>But yeah, that date annoyed me too!</p>

19

<p>Realize that they won't rescind your acceptance if you don't go.</p>

<p>How many people have already been sent their admission decision in this form?</p>
