I got my mail today and was waitlisted. I'd love to take the spot, but the letter says that ''as a general rule, financial aid is expended on candidates admitted earlier'', which sucks. That goes against their ''meets full need for all admitted students''..

pretty sure it was regular. Fedex would have to have a special envelope/sticker or something, right? This was a regular envelope that they've sent before, from United states postage

I'm sorry you didn't get in... But don't lose your hope!

And if it was regular mail, it means I'll get my decision by May...

I only seem to lose hope in the hour after I get the decision, after that I bounce right back. Well, until I get my last decision. Boy, that day's gonna suck.

And don't worry, they'll also be online in a few days!

Good luck to you!

Thanks,

Russia is a big country, so it may take more time.

Anyway, I hope all of us will be accepted!
