** Official Decision Thread EA Class of 2013 **

<p>Since it seems like the other results threads are a little jumbled, I figured I'd try to condense the results information into some coherency. Copy and paste the following text, remove the spaces from the brackets, and add your information. You can also change the color of the title, probably green for acceptance, red for deny and yellow for defer. Or just do whatever you want haha... Letters seem to have been mailed out already, so good luck to everyone who applied!</p>

<p>(by the way, I just copied this from last year's results thread so tyou may very well have seen it before :) )</p>

<p>I got my letter in the mail, accepted :)</p>

<p>kimcpm--they send out letters for all decision notifications by mail, so everyone will probably know by monday hopefully. They don't have any online notification, but it's fun to wait for the letter haha</p>
