why did i get TWO acceptance packages, from different schools!?

<p>hi
ok so yesterday I received the big blue folder with the GW acceptance letter inside, the letter saying that I was accepted into SMPA, and a notice about the $800 deposit that we're supposed to mail back by March 2.</p>

<p>TODAY, however, i received another big blue folder with the GW acceptance letter inside, and a letter saying that I was accepted into CCAS, and a letter about the $800 deposit that we're supposed to mail back by March 2. </p>

<p>both admissions are addressed to me and are dated Feb 4, 2009...so i'm pretty sure they're mine. </p>

<p>so, first of all, i'm guessing the reason why i got a SMPA package and a CCAS package is that SMPA is a part of CCAS? (what a waste of blue folders haha)</p>

<p>and SECONDLY, does this mean i have to send a $1600 deposit? one for each school? or just $800 (and include both the SMPA and CCAS deposit letter in the envelope)??</p>

<p>or should i email Undergraduate Admissions and ask them this q?</p>

<p>thanks :D</p>

<p>SMPA is indeed part of CCAS. I highly doubt that you have to send in $1600, but I'd call just to clarify. Congratulations!</p>

<p>Did you apply ED?</p>
