General Comments:</p>
<p>Can anyone here unable to see their notice of admissions letter??</p>
<p>I got admitted but I’m not sure why I can’t see it !
I’m wondering if it’s because I’m an international student?
HELPP</p>
<p>I am not international but I can’t see my letter either. I think they just haven’t updated everything yet because the decisions were just released</p>
<p>Might it be because the servers are slow?</p>
<p>I hope so does it say
“Below are links to emails, letters or other official correspondence you have received from the Office of Undergraduate Admissions concerning your application.There is currently no correspondence available for you.” when you try and access your letter?</p>
