<p>Hi, I applied ED 2 for NYU
Could you guys enlighten me whether the acceptance/rejection letters come as Mail only? Or do we also get a notification through email? Because I live somewhere farrrrrr from NYC which means I'd have to wait 2-3 weeks for the mail to come through.. Your answers would truly help. Thank You. </p>
<p>I've also heard that the LSP mails are sent out even earlier. Does this mean for ED2 candidates the mails will be out around early Feb? </p>
<p>Your admission decision will come as an email. I was on a flight to China the day the decisions were supposed to be sent out, and I was able to find out when I checked my email right after I landed. My package/letter came a week later my mail (I had it sent to China, so it was pretty fast).</p>
<p>Also, I’m not too sure about the emails for ED2 applicants, but my email came exactly on December 15th. I think ED2 applicants will probably get theirs on February 15th. </p>
<p>Simply backing up what was already said, you’ll get an email with your decision followed by an actual mailing a week or so later, gigantic purple packet if you got in and a thin white envelope if you didn’t.</p>
<p>I really really want to go to NYU
but i got rejected (EDII)
I have had many dreams about going there and I can picture every detail of my life there.
i have worked my ass of to go there, and now i feel so broken and shattered.
i have no motivation whatsoever now. the news completely killed me.
I have never wanted something so much in my life…and i really wish i can do something about it.
can i call the admission office?..ugh ugh
i hope it was a mistake and i would be receiving big envelops in a couple of days…</p>
<p>good luck to all those who are still waiting.</p>
<p>It breaks my heart to read your post. First of all this is just like a child falling when trying to run too hard, just get up brush yourself and keep walking. I am sure you have applied to more colleges as second/third and so on choices. The place where you will get accepted will be the place you will be happiest at.
In Hindu philosophy we believe that our effort (Karma) should be one hundred percent and the result should be left to almighty. If what you desire has not happened then something much better is in store for you,only you can"t see it right now because you are miserable at this moment. Once the moment passes you will be able to see clearly and understand and accept and start to run again towards what you want again like the small child and will rejoice with your next offer. Just keep doing your karma.</p>
<p>I hope this is not too heavy stuff for you.</p>
<p>And I am sure you will already be over your disappoinment and moving on with pleasant frame of mind, I wish the very best for you always</p>
<p>Its going to be really hard for me to move on. I wish I could write something super amazing and powerful so that they would reconsider my admission…
I dont want this admiration and love for NYU to become hatred.
You know how love can turn in to hate just like that.
I know i wont let that happen, but still, i am having a hard time moving on.
I have been telling my friends that i havent checked the email…
All of them are so excited to see me getting in, and I just dont want to break their hearts. I know they will be supportive no matter what, but I just want no more tears coming from me when i do say " i got rejected."
It was really nice to hear about the “karma” concept, and it does help me.
However, it is going to take a while for me to walk out of this misery.</p>
<p>I totally understand and it is your pain and nothing that I or anybody say is going to make it better, The only person who can do that is you. I am sure you would have support system around you in terms of your family . Talk to them. Once you get it out of your system it will make place for other better thoughts and feelings and it will help you to move on.</p>
<p>Why I am sharing this with you is that My daughter got rejected from Wharton ED-1. Her reaction was somewhat similar. She also had lot of questions about her capabilities and all the things you are talking about. The bottom line is do not allow others ( people or college acceptances) define who you are. You will continue be the same child to your parents, same person to your friends and family no matter where you you pass out from or whatever you decide to in your life. The people who love will love you for who you are, that is it.</p>
<p>And your reaction shows that you are caring ,kind and sensitive. You want to live up to what you think is others expectation of you. If you talk to them you will realise all of them want the best for you and want to see you happy and content and successful and I can go on and on. So cheer up and keep up your grades in the final phase of your school life and it is going to be wonderful.</p>
<p>I’m really sorry I know exactly what you are going through also. I just found out (about two hours ago) that I was rejected from my first choice school also. As you said I’d pictured my self going there and I just felt like I was supposed to start my college experience there. I’m still waiting to hear from NYU but right now it seems like nothing really matters anymore.</p>
<p>Hey HPFan13
Thank you for your kind words. I just wrote what I would and do tell my daughter in these moments of truth.
I am guessing you are from class of 2013
Take care</p>
<p>Hi HPFan13
You are graduating from High School in 2011,right. Okay so have you applied to NYU too, are you already in or waiting for RD. I wish you the very best either way. Be happy and have a good life that is my prayer for you.</p>
<p>i am feeling better…but it is still painful to think about it.
i just got an acceptance letter from UCLA
that gave me a little more confidence in my personal performance and ability but even wonder more about my rejection from nyu
how is that the best thing for your daughter?</p>
