<p>I'm an RD applicant and the other day someone in my class said that she got rejected from Oxy last week. I haven't heard anything (positive or negative) from Occidental yet, and had thought that decisions weren't coming until later this month. Has anyone else gotten a decision? If not, does anyone know when they're coming? Thanks!</p>
<p>Ohh, now I see that they’re mailing decisions next week. I’m still confused about what the girl in my class said, but whatevs! No one else has heard yet, right?</p>
<p>Maybe you misheard her? And nah, I haven’t heard back yet</p>
<p>Good luck people! </p>
<p>Also if you get waitlisted, and you still are interested- there’s still a good chance you can get in. A couple of my friends here were on the waitlist last year.</p>
<p>How does the waitlist work exactly?</p>
<p>Does the school mail or email their RD Decisions?</p>
<p>Also does anyone know what the admission packet look like? Any particularities we should keep an eye out for? Like a huge orange enveloppe?!</p>
<p>From what I heard, the rejection is a small white envelope and the acceptance is big and orange and silver.</p>
<p>I’m praying for the latter.</p>
<p>does the acceptance come by regular postal mail or fed ex or…?</p>
<p>I think regular mail, but I’m not sure.</p>
<p>It’s like a priority mail envelope thing I think. Pretty much regular mail though via your mailbox.</p>
<p>GwuGirl: It’s funny how you say you pray for an acceptance letter from Oxy when your user name begs to differ Lol. Best of luck to you. I am actually also applying to GWU.
But orange and silver you say, got it. Will keep an eye out for it.</p>
<p>Well according to webite, the likely date for mailing is this Thur-26th. Maybe a little earlier, but I’m betting a little later. So by Sat some may be getting the word.</p>
<p>worth the weight</p>
<p>Oh man just four more days! This is so scary!</p>
<p>iskander, when I made the account GW was my first choice, now it’s around my third and Oxy is my first. It’s a good thing I didn’t do ED lol.
Good luck to you too, and with GW since they are posting tomorrow.</p>
<p>my acceptance envelope had “welcome to oxy” written on it. it freaked me out because i was convinced i was going to be rejected. haha</p>
<p>Mistkae, I want one :[</p>
<p>mistkae, when did you receive yours? Was it for ED? And if you don’t mind me asking, what kind of academic record did you have when you applied?</p>
<p>mostkae, did your acceptance show on the online checklist?</p>
<p>ThatPoshGirl, decisions will not be online. Oxy only mails.</p>
<p>“Admission decisions will be mailed this Thursday, March 26th, and emails to international students will go out shortly after that, probably Friday.”</p>
