<p>S did receive an email yesterday about the data retrieval requirement (can't do until we pay our taxes), but other than that, he has received absolutely no correspondence.. email or snail mail. </p>
<p>Where is the welcome packet with the invitation to Pre-Frosh weekend? </p>
<p>Has anyone else gotten anything?</p>
<p>I think we only got the emails online-nothing in the mail yet. But I believe the online email had the link to the pre-frosh weekend. Can your S check the email again?</p>
<p>Ok, actually, my son got a separate email (and to his old email address, which is strange but oh well) titled “Visit Caltech!” Your S didn’t get this? I would call admissions tomorrow to find out what happened…</p>
<p>Hm, I was just about to post “My son didn’t get that email!” when I realized that he probably did, sent to his email address, and would never considering sharing that information with me unless I asked!</p>
<p>I don’t believe they send much outside of the links provided in the admission portal.</p>
<p>There is no official snail mail of the letter posted on website.</p>
<p>the only email S has received (and I’m looking at his email right now) is “Caltech admissions decision”. the soccer coach confirmed he was accepted and then he received an email from the tennis coach today (and we won’t even discuss his tennis skills - LOL). oh and then the financial aid mail today… but nothing from admissions.</p>
<p>Ah I was unaware of the website… I went back to S’s decision email and found pertinent info about admit weekend, etc. So at least I feel a little better and more informed now 
It would still be nice for S to get something in the snail mail though.</p>
<p>LOL, crazymomster. :-)</p>
<p>IIRC, I don’t think I ever got any snail mail from Caltech at all after I was accepted (except maybe one “come to Caltech” letter).</p>
<p>Even after I matriculated, the orientation information, health forms, etc. were only sent by email.</p>
<p>Update:</p>
<p>My son got something from Caltech today. We’re in California, so I’m betting they’re on the way. There was even a short personalized note.(first one he’s gotten)</p>
<p>^^My son got nice card and note on Wed. – also in California.</p>
<p>S just got his mail from Caltech today… yeah.</p>
<p>Yay, chatquip and crazymomster! :-)</p>
