Last one! When should I hear back from UK?/Acceptance Letter Question

When should I hear back from UK? I am kind of a "late case"- heard from UK in January, decision wasn't made on my app. So i took the ACT again for higher scores- my admissions officer said she got them on February 28th, 2011, and said she would ask the committee to look over my application once again. I heard from my first letter 2 1/2 weeks after all my credentials had been sent in (All credentials received week of Dec. 13, 2010, got the letter Jan. 4th, 2011). Now, since I haven't heard back within two and a half weeks, I am really anxious and nervous. So, anyone know when I should hear back from them?

Also, since I am supposed to hear from UK "soon", I was wondering if anyone knew if the acceptance letter came in a big envelope, small envelope, or an envelope within another (big) envelope.

These are my last few questions for this forum. My bad for taking over the UK section of CC!

When I applied, I heard back within a couple of weeks. This was at the beginning of September when they first started accepting applications. I was really anxious, so after probably two weeks, I emailed and asked if there was any way I could check on my application status. They replied and told me I had been accepted. I would say it wasn't any longer than 3 weeks after I applied that I got my letter in the mail.
My acceptance letter came in a normal sized envelope. It had the the letter and then a couple of other pieces of paper that had instructions on how to set up your account and stuff.

You should hear back within a month, particularly if you're a later decision.
