Where's the OFFICIAL Caltech EA thread?

<p>I'm gonna call on Friday.</p>

<p>No need to, I got the letter fed-exed to me today. Admitted. :)</p>

<p>Nothing yet in Texas, at least by regular mail. (I'm figuring only the int'ls would get fed-exed)</p>

<p>I think so too, because international mail is very, very unreliable.</p>

<p>Oh yeah time to post LUEshi</p>

<p>LUE 402, punks.</p>

<p>Woohoo amrik!</p>

<p>Congrats!!</p>

<p>Stats?</p>

<p>And what about MIT, is it your second or first choice?</p>

<p>You can check my stats thread here: <a href="http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/showthread.php?t=7491%5B/url%5D"&gt;http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/showthread.php?t=7491&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p>

<p>As for MIT vs. Caltech, I applied for both. My decision will depend on:</p>

<ol>
<li>Which one admits me (if I get rejected from either one, the decision is made for me)</li>
<li>Which gives better financial aid (I'm not poor, but I'm not rich either)</li>
</ol>

<p>Amazing ECs, Stats, everything!</p>

<p>I gave up on CalTech though, I applyed RD to MIT and I hope I get admitted there! :)</p>

<p>By the way, do you get to choose between the schools after you get your acceptance from MIT, I mean it's binding.</p>

<p>Congrats again, amrik!</p>

<p>I don't think MIT EA is binding.</p>

<p>neither MIT nor Caltech are binding, and neither one limits your app to other ED schools. So many people apply to both. If accepted, they have until May 1st to decide just like RD applicants.</p>

<p>Nothing today. Hopefully this is not a sign of sending acceptances early and deferrals/rejections late...</p>

<p>mailman just came. still nothing.</p>

<p>Congradulations, amrik!</p>

<p>Thanks. :)</p>

<p>Well, the other person at my school applying to caltech got his deferral letter yesterday, but I still haven't gotten anything yet. I'm a bit worried.... Even though I haven't heard of any US acceptances yet, amrik you're international right?</p>

<p>U.S. citizen living abroad.</p>

<p>I got deferred.</p>

<p>I have a feeling a ton of people applied.</p>

<p>Um, I also have not gotten anything . . .</p>

<p>I think I'm the first one on this board to get into MIT. Caltech is where I want to be, though.</p>

<p>I don't know if I know anyone yet that's gotten into one and not the other... wait do we know anyone that's gotten into caltech other than amrik anyway?</p>

<p>Hi, quick question: I still haven't gotten anything from CalTech yet. However, even after I sent in my application, I didn't hear anything from them. Is it supposed to be like that? I'm under the impression that usually colleges let you know that they received your application. I'm afraid that my application was somehow not processed.</p>

<p>Thanks.</p>
