Haven't gotten mine yet, but my alum called me tonight so at least I know my admission wasn't a mistake.

My d got congratulatory email from her interviewer: short and sweet. No admissions package yet, but we live far away. A friend is waiting on a Skidmore decision, which was mailed on the 14th, supposedly. Is the postal system really this bogged down?

Yes, the mail is really bogged down probably due to the storms they've had and Christmas mail. We were waiting for a decision mailed from Massachusetts on the 12th and just got it today (CA).

Actually, it's funny. Our mailman is a good friend of our family, so he knows we're watching for Blue Mail. His daughter is the one waiting on Skidmore and even he can't hurry things!

bmw, I know my d thinks until she holds the letter, it isn't quite real.

I kept having to pinch myself, thinking I'd wake up. I kept thinking they made a mistake or something, but the solid feeling of that envelope erased all doubt.
