Spring 2015 Applicants Unite

<p>@ebs1995 ohhhhh rightttt, I think you are right! Thanks :slight_smile: </p>

<p>I just gotta say, I am so glad I found this forum. Dealing with this wait on my own would’ve been so much worse.</p>

<p>I agree ! @Madzzz‌ </p>

<p>@ebs1995‌ @Rikki1‌ The person on Tumblr may be in the greater NYC area meaning the mail gets there faster. I live about 2.5-3 hours away and get my mail early in the morning. Nothing today. Hopefully tomorrow or by the end of the week. Also try to remember that there are lots of other applicants as well. They may separate mail by last name and mail a group out at a time. Not sure. They call it snail mail for a reason. Very slow. I would assume the envelopes are the big ones that say “WELCOME” or “CONGRATULATIONS” on it in that signature FIT font. And for those who don’t know, if you don’t get accepted, you will be notified by mail only. When you’re accepted they send an email after the letters are mailed (and usually received). A rejection letter comes in a legal size envelope with FIT on the return address. But don’t fret! If you get one of these envelopes, it can also be a request if they need something, or in my case, they sent back forms they didn’t need and I was petrified. For reference, USPS takes about 2-3 days to get stuff to where I live from NYC so if you’re further away, that may be why none of us have seen any letters yet. Keeping my fingers crossed for everyone!!!</p>

<p>I asked and received an email from admission officer that my decision will be available around december 1st. but some others get decesion!!! What’s going on?</p>

<p>@emart95‌ thanks ! I know they big envelopes mean YOURE IN . I hope everyone remains positive no matter what . Good luck to every one . We still have a week or so left so dont worry. I am in Atlanta so mine may be here at the end of the week or next week . </p>

<p>When exactly did you guys finish your applications ? </p>

<p>@Rikki1‌ a week until the deadline for everything (deposits, etc)? And yeah, I would expect it at the end of the week at the earliest honestly. I finished my application in late August
no excuses for this whatsoever lol</p>

<p>@emart95‌ what do you mean by the first sentence ? It doesn’t say when deposits are due , yet . All it says is that it is required upon your acceptance </p>

<p>@Iamjenn‌ ‌ They always say that. It’s just a blanket date that you should expect to receive your decision letter, negative or positive, by. </p>

<p>@Rikki1‌ I was asking what you meant that “we only have a week to go” a week until what?</p>

<p>@emart95‌ oh until the all the letters go out . </p>

<p>Do they also send decision during thanksgiving break? I am so worried! </p>

<p>Yes . Up until December 1st @Iamjenn‌ </p>

<p>@Rikki1‌ ohhhhh okay. Good. I’m glad then. I just want to know! Even though finding this thread was great and has helped answer some questions for me, now it’s gonna be painful! One by one we’re gonna be like “I got accepted!!!” Or even worse, that we didn’t, and it won’t do anything but stress everyone else out more!</p>

<p>I know right ! That’s the hard part , but we found it for a reason . @emart95‌ </p>

<p>@emart95 I live in NJ so it would only take 1 or 2 days max to come once it’s mailed.</p>

<p>@Rikki1 My app was complete by August 21st. </p>

<p>@ebs1995‌ oh okay . I completed mine at the end of October so you guys should receive your letters first ! @emart95‌ </p>

<p>I finished my applications and had everything in by september. </p>

<p>So I should start my fasfa now even if I haven’t gotten a letter yet?</p>

<p>Yes @xokikixo‌ </p>
