<p>still cant believe i got in but i guess im just waiting for financial aid. news came on saturday. mom said she cried but im still blank about itā¦i guess it hasnt hit me yet.</p>
<p>What was inside the application receipt mail? Is the ID listed on a letter paper or is it in a thick packet?</p>
<p>The Application ID was on the letter page. If you didnāt get it, you can call (not now, though) and ask them or email them.</p>
<p>They sent me my Admissions ID by phone after I contacted them. To which I promptly lost it again until I double clicked Chrome and my entry that I typed in was saved in there.</p>
<p>Thanks, Google Chrome!</p>
<p>Is there anyone else who hasnāt yet received their decision? Maybe its the fact that I applied to tepper; havnāt seen any decisions on CC from there yet.</p>
