haha I so agree...you aren't alone im sure i scared the mail man the other day. Our mail usually comes around 4 and it was 4 15 and i looked out the window and saw that the mail truck was at the box down the street where out mail is so i dashed and stood in front on the box, key in hand, waiting for him to finish and trying to get a glimpse of what he was putting in to see if there were any big envelopes...he shut the door and i almost screamed when i saw a big white envelope i pulled it out of the mailbox to find that it was from AAA about my car insurance....I hate the waiting too but i make the days go by by checking my e-mail 3000000 times and always getting the mail and inbetween that i check my status at all the schools

Take a deep breath everybody...I believe that last year's acceptances came by phone call in mid March, followed by letters close to April. Good luck and keep busy while you are waiting!

Well, we looked at the where are you in the process website, and saw they had pulled in the SAT's we asked the college board to send--and they send his "practice" scores. We have been having trouble with college board through this whole experience and it appears ONCE again, I will have to pay them to send scores somewhere. I know I'm off topic, but I have to VENT!

CMU admission office sent my son a card reminding him to fill out FAFSA if needed and about tuition fees. Did anyone receive this.

momsonfaith - my D received this info too - in spite of emailing the admissions office that she was withdrawing her application.

momsonfaith

MTgrlsmom :If you don't mine me asking why you decided to withdraw your application? Also, do you think they send this information to everyone that applied to the conservatory program? Thanks

MTgrlsmom

My D was accepted to NYU (CAP21), her dream school ED. Rather than sit and wait to see where else she would get accepted, she went ahead and informed every school that she had applied to (including the ones she had received acceptance letters from) that she was withdrawing her application.

She absolutely loved CMU's MT program, and knows quite a few current students, and so please know that this had absolutely nothing to do with her not liking something about CMU . With all the people waiting, and the limited number of spots available, it just was the right thing to do.

Just to clarify, your daughter, as an ED admitted student, is REQUIRED to withdraw all of her applications to other schools. It is not an option or just the "right thing to do." It is part of the agreement when one applies ED to a school, which is a binding decision to attend and to withdraw all active applications to all other colleges. She is not allowed to sit and wait to see where else she would be accepted. Just sharing this so that any who read this who contemplate applying to schools ED know the rules and understand that this wasn't a choice, but a requirement.

I believe everyone who applied to CMU for anything got that card reminding them about financial aid and to fill out the FAFSA. (In other words, I wouldn't take it as indication that the kid is about to be accepted, unfortunately! I wish!)

I would interpret it as NMR....not an indicator of anything, but rather a procedure sent to all applicants.
