<p>I submitted my stuff by October 14th and all the other stuff by October 20th but did not receive an email telling me that I am early action or whatever, is this bad?</p>
<p>no. there were a lot of people that had everything in by Sep. and they didn’t get the e-mail. do what i did: call the undergrad. office and ask the guy if you made the ED deadline. he/she’ll let you know</p>
<p>no, it is NOT BAD. just wait, there are a ton of people who applied before you did and still haven’t gotten their emails yet. i would wait a few weeks, and if nothing comes in just call the admissions office. just because they send you an email saying you made the ED deadline doesn’t mean that you are an ED applicant, there are other ways to make sure</p>

<p>as a follow-up to that post: I applied on Oct. 30, quite near the deadline. most my application materials were received by Nov. 11 (b/c of the large volume of apps. coming in on/near the deadline)</p>
<p>so I guess this was like a reassurance of some sort that we’re Early even though they only got to our stuff near mid November.</p>
