<p>wow. wow.
you guys are so lucky that you even have a CHANCE to go
there’s no way my parents would would 2000-3000 for a summer program =/</p>

822

<p>pigs<em>at</em>sea:</p>

<p>the program is free save for about $100 spent on books. all the residency and tuition stuff is free</p>

823

<p>i called monday and they said that the board is meeting this week to deliberate. I guess they’ll look at the ones that they received first. cross your fingers and good luck to everyone =)</p>

824

<p>did they say when we will find out?
i hope its soon…</p>

825

<p>Last year, they didn’t find out until mid-May for the diversity program. I don’t understand why it takes so long.</p>

826

<p>well, when i called they said they would mail out decisions by mid-April, but she said “hopefully,” so i’m not sure what that means…
i’m guessing it probably will end up being early may or mid-may…</p>

827

<p>well…i got rejected last year but i looked back in my email and i got mine on may 8th, 2008</p>

<p>anyway, good luck guys :)</p>

828

<p>hey velleity, it takes soo long because they have to process all of the applications so no one gets left out and all the mail arrives at differt times because of location and date postmarked. Then when they gett all of the applications they have to sort them i guess and delibarate who is accepted and rejected</p>

829

<p>does anybody know if we can call and ask about the admissions decisions yet?</p>

830

<p>Late April I believe.</p>

831

<p>Did anyone receive a confirmation letter? I don’t think I did, unless it was in the pile of college letters that my mom threw out.</p>

832

<p>i called them yesterday and they said they have already started making decisions at “an offsite location” but she didnt say when we would get them back.</p>

833

<p>I think decisions have been made; if you call.</p>

834

<p>I thought decisions came out in May?
Anyone actually call and get their decision?</p>

835

<p>A friend at school told me. I should calll…</p>

836

<p>Just called. Rejected.</p>

837

<p>What about Summer PRograms for diversity?</p>
