Official Carnegie Mellon Class of 2020 Applicants Discussion Thread

Question: anyone who prematurely got waitlisted received a FAT letter? I haven’t checked my mail box yet

Do they send out rejection letters?

Does waitlist or rejection come in a decision letter on the same day as acceptance from CMU?

Guys they do NOT send out rejection letters in the mail-only acceptances and waitlists.

Has anyone who prematurely got waitlisted received a FAT letter yet? I messed up my address on the app so I don’t think I will get one even if I got accepted.

@ALeynng You can keep asking but I don’t think it is going to get anyone to answer you :))

Anyways you will be able to see your admission decision on the portal tonight so you will know if you are accepted or not soon. :slight_smile:

I showed zero interest… no visits, emails, etc. Do I at all have a chance?

Apparently waitlist letters are small skinny envelope sent via regular mail.

Did anyone in California get any mail from them today?

@dr0wning I am in Northern California and contacted the admissions office this morning. They were very clear that they don’t expect all of the admissions decisions to have been delivered today. Hang in there.

Some California folks on this thread have said they received their mailed decisions today.

Thanks @cno2020! Those are great!!!

Yes 4.5 hours :slight_smile:

Wait, I thought it’s midnight tomorrow night, not tonight?

@dr0wning I’m from CA and didn’t see any letter today. Getting worried because I wasn’t even on the wait list.

Nope it’s tonight

@soorvora Thanks. Thought I have to suffer another day LOL

Does everyone have a button on their portal labeled “Financial Aid Notification”? I have one, but it says they aren’t done processing my financial aid request once I click on it.

@rykennedy55 I get the same notice. it will stay that way until after midnight est tonight I guess.
