I don't know if it's mentioned anywhere on this thread because I didn't read all. I am a parent and this is speaking from last year's experience. Last year, email notification came out on the 8th. On the 7th CU sent out acceptance letters overnight. What it means is that if you know the service they are using (FEDEx, DHL or UPS) you could call and find out if you are getting a package next day. Two years ago, it was FedEx, and last year they used DHL. They had a picture taken of DHL truck in front of the admission office having packages loaded up to the truck. But they will not tell you which service they are using before hand.
