Rice Admissions Office Closed?

<p>Does anyone know if the Rice Admissions Office is closed ? I sent my application in and i checked the tracking number and they said they left 2 notices yesterday since nobody signed for it.... plus i mailed it to the P.O. Box number.</p>

<p>Yes, they're closed until tomorrow.</p>

<p>why do you have a tracking number?? Did you not just send in via regular mail? Also, if someone needs to sign, I doubt that can be done at a P.O. Box, but, I am not sure.</p>

<p>^ I did priority mail so it gave me a tracking number.</p>

<p>will they go to pick it up if USPS left a slip in their box? because i doubt theyll sign it since its a PO Box</p>

<p>why did you do priority mail? I'm sure that it would have arrived just fine if you did regular mail. And, as long as it was postmarked by tomorrow, it really doesnt matter when it gets there (unless it gets lost). I'm not sure if the adcoms will go through the trouble of picking it up if it is inconvenient but as I have said, I am not sure.</p>

<p>Last year, DS's signature page was sent certified mail. I was glad to have confirmation of receipt from the admissions office. The peace of mind is worth it. The USPS is very reliable, but they are not perfect.</p>

<p>alright i dont know why i did priority just my parents are insecure. but thanks!</p>

<p>please do let me know if it gets there. I'd be devastated if it did not. I think that you should call them when the office reopens because they did not send the ED students confirmation until a month after we submitted the app.</p>

<p>Hey guys it got there! signed by Mrs.Franklin herself!</p>
