<p>Again, my son received a phone call on Monday that he got selected as PSP finalist, and yesterday we got an email, confirming this choice and some details. Snail mail still hasn’t arrived (we live in Virginia). </p>
<p>I contacted the Admission office just before the email went out and they confirmed that all finalists would get this email. A little disappointing that the remaining semifinalists didn’t get an email … :-(</p>
<p>The date that something goes in the mail on campus may be the day before it gets to the central campus P.O. and gets mailed. </p>
<p>Please take that into account when you mail your son care packages at GT, or whatever school he attends, as the delay happens both ways, coming and going.</p>
<p>Besides, what is the advantage to lying about what date something was mailed?</p>
<p>Sorry I’ve not been checking the GTech forums for a while. But here’s some info, if it still helps you guys. I got notified by phone, btw, and received an email a few days ago. </p>
