<p>do decisions only come by snail-mail or are they e-mailed as well?</p>
<p>u know, they've been changing when decisions come out each time we ask.
so yeah, perhaps we shouldn't trustt them. in fact, they're probaby not going to come out with decisions at all...and will ultimately reject all of us. In fact, they are a big paper-eating machine that enticed us to apply and then ate our applications.</p>
<p>they want to prevent global warming so they steal all the paper they can! =D</p>
<p>lol</p>
<p>Hey did anyone get accepted into Carnegie Mellon University's AP/EA pre-college program? The deadline for application is May 1st and admission is supposed to be on a rolling basis. I called and admissions said they processed my application but still have not made a decision. Anyone else get a decision (accepted or rejected)?</p>
<p>thanks</p>
<p>So far, no one on here has gotten a decision. See this thread for more info <a href="http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/summer-programs/457841-summer-academy-math-science-sams-ap-ea-carnegie-mellon.html%5B/url%5D">http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/summer-programs/457841-summer-academy-math-science-sams-ap-ea-carnegie-mellon.html</a></p>
<p>i'm pretty sure he was referring to the "paid" program, not diversity</p>

<p>well well well we'll see....
hack, I wish they can just email me NOW.</p>
<p>i don't wish that because i'd rather be admitted in two weks than rejected tomorrow</p>
<p>^ haha...I'd rather be rejected tomorrow than rejected in 2 weeks...</p>
<p>update: the email lady said that it is being decided 'this week'
i guess you can interpret that in several ways.
they do keep on changing the dates as well.. grr</p>
<p>yes, id rather be accepted than rejected duh :)
but then, you'll see is right too...</p>

For my SAMS essay,i talked about my goals in life and how i want to travel around the world to help people in 3rd world countries by being a pediatrician. </p>
<p>do u think its good enough</p>
<p>in general i think your scores are lower than those of most of the people on this thread, but given your circumstances and background, not to mention your 4.0 gpa, i think you have a solid chance at getting in</p>
<p>i live in bangkok, so time zone is the reason why. :O)</p>
<p>^^ i think you will have a good chance. haha it's quite funny how your diversity essay topic is pretty darn similar to mine, except that i compared my culture to all the other cultures (i go to an international school).</p>
<p>so... any news in the mail yet?</p>
<p><em>sigh</em>. Nope.....</p>
