Hey!
So I applied to IIT for fall 2012 and I'd like to know how applicants are notified of their decisions. I recently got an email from TNT (the courier service) saying that I would soon receive a letter from IIT. Could this be the decision? And did anyone get their decisions emailed to them? BTW i'm an international applicant.

Thanks. ^^

Hi Anita95

Yes, that should be your decision. There may be something for you in the admissions portal too.

Anita95

Anita95, congrats! I received the letter yesterday too.
Did they give you a scholarship? and if yes, how much?
Which course did you apply for?

xraymancs

Congratulations to you both.

@eatheseed Congrats! Yeah they did. $18k for tuition +$3500 for housing. Applied for Architecture. You?

eattheseed

Wow, I got 16k for tuition and 3.5k for housing. Same here, applied for architecture.
Are you planning to go?

Anita95

I'm not sure yet. Still waiting decisions from the other school's applied to. BTW, where are you from?

eattheseed

Hi I am an international student from Bosnia and I was curious if you guys received the scholarships along with your admission decision and how much more did you have to provide for the full cost?
thanks

How much did u get on the SAT for these scholarships ?

If any of you have questions whose answers might help you decide whether to come to IIT, feel free to ask me. I probably cannot answer specifics about architecture as I am a physics professor but I can try...

Is the campus and dorms safe? I heard that they are located in the 'bad' suburban part of Chicago, so crime rate was higher?
