<p>Those of you who got EA emails from Stanford -- did the SUBJECT line indicate you had been admitted (like Congratulations)?? Or was the subject line something non-commital like "Your Admissions Decision?" Admit emails seem to be all over the place . . .</p>
<p>gah, it seems like everyone wants to know what the EA emails looked like. But you have it exactly right. It says "Your Admissions Decision from Stanford University." Btw, you don't need to turn off snippet view (if you have gmail). The first couple lines are just your name, address, date, letterhead, etc.</p>
<p>And.... here's the rejection letter!! :D hahaha </p>
<p>(sorry I don't have an acceptance one for you...)</p>
<p>Dear BILLYBOB,</p>
<p>The Office of Undergraduate Admission regrets to inform you that we are unable to offer you admission to Stanford University. The overall quality of our applicant pool and relatively small size of our freshman class means that we disappoint the vast majority of our applicants each year. We acknowledge your strong interest in Stanford, which makes the task of sending you this news especially difficult. </p>
<p>You will find below answers to the most commonly asked questions about the Restrictive Early Action process at Stanford. I hope it will help answer some of the questions you may have about our decision. Please be aware that we are not able to consider appeals to this decision.</p>
<p>BILLYBOB, you are a fine student with solid support from your teachers and advisors. I am confident that you will enjoy great success in your undergraduate education. I only wish we had room for everyone with talent and energy like yours.</p>
<p>As a more formal notice of our admission decision, we have mailed you a letter copy of this email.</p>
<p>With best wishes for an outstanding undergraduate experience,</p>
<p>Richard H. Shaw</p>
<p>Dean of Admission and Financial Aid</p>
<p>Not to go and dig up all the old threads, but we were wondering the same thing on the thread for this year’s applicants’…</p>
<p>Subject line for REA accepted students last year, and probably rejected also, was " Your Admission Decision".</p>

Stanford ID: Dear Bobbie Jane,
Congratulations! The Admission Committee joins me in the most rewarding part of my job—offering you admission to Stanford University and inviting you to join our Class of 2016.</p>
<p>You have set yourself apart, and we are impressed and inspired by your passion, determination and accomplishments. We acknowledge and celebrate all you have worked for with the good news this letter brings. </p>
<p>At Stanford you join a diverse, joyful and collaborative campus community with a shared determination to change the world. Indeed, Leland and Jane Stanford founded the University “to promote the public welfare by exercising an influence on behalf of humanity and civilization.” That influence begins with an academic community committed to mastering the known and developing an intuitive capacity to imagine the unknown. You are part of something larger than yourself at Stanford, and your unique perspective will contribute to this extraordinary community.</p>
<p>Most importantly, Stanford is a place to grow and begin to define your place in the world.</p>
<p>The next step is to visit our admitted student website: admit.stanford.edu. We also invite you to attend Admit Weekend, planned for Thursday–Saturday, April 26–28, 2012. An Admit Weekend Handbook will be enclosed in your mailed packet, and you have until May 1, 2012, to accept our offer of admission.</p>
<p>As you continue through the final term of your senior year, please do not initiate changes to your course schedule without contacting us first. Your admission is contingent upon strong academic performance in the program of study you presented in your application.</p>
<p>We are thrilled to offer you admission and hope that you will join us. Welcome to the Stanford family. </p>
<p>Sincerely,</p>
<p>Richard H. Shaw
Dean of Admission and Financial Aid</p>
<p>Someone should post more rejection letters from throughout the years so we can practice…</p>
