Decision Notification

Kirchhoff Rulez · 04-26-2008, 11:41 PM

Hi, these are probably a stupid question, but I'm going to ask it anyway because:
1. I'm nervous.
2. I'm curios.
3. The combination of 1&2 ;-).

How does Caltech send out the notifications for transfer students?
Is it through an express mail (or express mail only if you are accepted?) ?
Is it always in a large envelope (if accepted)?

Thank you.

Anybody ???
I know that Caltech sent their decisions on Thursday. Does Caltech uses express mail send their decisions to the accepted candidates and snail mail to the rejected ones?

Regardless of the type of mail they are using, if you don't receive anything by next Thursday, you should call them. Beyond that...well...just be patient a little bit more - the end of waiting is near =)
Good luck, dude[ss]!

For RD and EA, everyone in this country received 1st class mail. I beleive internationals got their mail by FedEx, or some similar service.

Are you talking about trasnfer decisions or waitlist decisions?

Transfer decisions.
Thanks for the info another parent ;-)
And thanks for the wishes Hriundeli.
I guess I'll just have to sit and wait for a few more days.
