<p>How do they notify you of your acceptance? Is it only by mail, or is it accessible on the online system?</p>
<p>The send it via mail</p>
<p>Or if you're me, you somehow get an admissions officer to tell you your decision before the letter comes in the mail. <g></g></p>
<p>you mentioned getting an application officer to tell you, how did u do that?</p>
<p>well the only way u can find out is via mail.
u get this huge envelope that says congrats across and i believe u can't access the info thru online</p>
<p>There are tons of threads from last year that will give you an idea of when you'll hear. Search for "decision" and go to about page 2 or 3, when decisions started arriving.</p>
<p>You can look up online and you get a letter in the mail.</p>
<p>I found out of my acceptance, the day before the letter came, through the website.</p>
<p>It took about 5 weeks from the date I submitted my application. Maybe 4 weeks from the time my application was complete (after they received my transcripts).</p>
<p>uicgrad1, do you attend Penn State? if so, are you happy with your decision? what're you studying?</p>
