Received financial aid award letter but no acceptance letter

Hi, I applied early decision (deadline dec. 1 and decision letters sent around January 15) for St. John’s University doctor of pharmacy program on Nov 25. Late January i received a letter (dated january 17) stating that i’ve been deferred and that my application will be reviewed for the regular decision applicant pool (deadline feb 1 and decision letters are sent around March 1). Since then I’ve sent the school my mid year transcript. A few days again I received a financial aid award letter. It included the scholarships and grants I’ve received and loans that i am eligible for. However, i received no notification of acceptance. Does that mean I got in?

Btw, SJU does send letters of acceptance in the mail…

the people that know work in admissions at St. Johns…

It seems quite likely, but you need to call and ask.
