<p>Just out of curiosity, does NU send acceptances in large envelopes and rejections in small ones? Or does it use small for both decisions?</p>
<p>based on what all the other top notch schools do, there will be a big one for admitted and small for wl and r</p>
<p>My acceptance came in a big envelope (not huge and bulky). I don't know what the rejection envelope would look like, but my guess is that it would be standard business sized.</p>
<p>I think I remember the acceptance envelope saying CONGRATS! on the front in big purple letters... but it didn't matter because I found out online days before I ever got the letter.</p>
<p>rejection letters are standard business sized .. i know because i got one last year. I sooo hope i don't get it this year.. :(</p>

<p>:-'(( WAHHHHHHHHHHH! I am so nervous guys lol. I really want to get in but anybody who is not with the "in" crowd (meaning like perfect sats, top 1% rank, etc. et al, so on and so forth, la la la,) have such a slim shot.</p>
<p>Jeremybeach,
That is not true at all. I am by NO means the "in" crowd and I was accepted ED. I honestly think that NU is a school that TRULY reviews your applicated as a whole and will not turn you down just because of your numbers (assuming they aren't that far out of the average range of scores). So hang in there, only a couple more hours! And didn't you apply to the School of Music. If I am wrong then sorry but if not then talent has A LOT to do with admissions into the School of Music (from what I've heard).
Good luck!</p>
<p>I hope mine is big :)</p>
<p>Yup, for ED we got a big white envelope with "northwesetern" and "congratulations" on it in big purple letters, so it was sort of obvious. :) Then there's a lovely purple NU folder inside, with all the info.</p>
<p>It's big, but not too fat!</p>
<p>I just got mine like 20 minutes ago. I live like 50 minutes away from Northwestern though.</p>
<p>congratulations mp38721</p>
<p>Thanks! :)</p>
<p>I'm incredibly nervous. (and jealous :P )</p>
<p>Good luck!</p>
<p>AHHHHHHHHH !!!!!!!! I got into the school of music, Bachelor of Music degree in Voice and opera, i'm so psyched!!!!!!! Good luck to all of you, and let me know, and congratulations to those already accepted!</p>
