I’ll definately attend Bing if I don’t get enough financial aid at private universities!!</p>
<p>btw, I was noticed through mail but when I checked the application status checker, I couldn’t find anything that said I was accepted. Can someone tell me exactly where I need to to look?</p>
<p>I couldn’t find the word “accepted” anywhere. I went to the application status checker, then clicked processed applications, and then clicked Fall 2012. Then, it shows my brief profile (name, address, school I applied to, when my SAT scores and transcripts were sent, etc). I’m so confused…can someone tell me where EXACTLY it is?</p>
<p>I wouldn’t worry if you received a physical acceptance packet. I received a letter in the mail, but they haven’t updated the page to which you are referring. No worries. :)</p>
