Letters will begin to go out early this week but as unrealfire said, there’s no way to know when yours will be mailed. They will continue to go out until the end of the month. It isn’t done geographically either so you may live far from the city yet hear earlier than someone who lives close by. Receiving an email from someone in the admissions office in answer to a question should not be taken as any type of sign, positive or negative. It is their job to answer questions. It also does not necessarily mean that that particular person is the one who reviewed your application. In any case, kjayson, if you’ve been corresponding with this one person for a while now, as you’ve indicated, the review of your app would never take this long. It’s not like they’ve been studying one application now for a couple of weeks or however long it’s been that you’ve been mentioning this person in the admissions office. You better hope that they aren’t currently reading CC!

mattistottle, I have to say that if you’re waiting to hear from NYU before completing any other applications, you are making a big mistake. I’m not saying you won’t be accepted but with the odds of getting in what they are, I think you’re taking a big risk. If you’re not accepted, you aren’t going to be in a good mood, and you’re not going to feel like working on those apps at that point. The thing is, at THAT point, those apps are going to be the important ones and you want to do a good job on them. I’m surprised your guidance counsellor, and your parents, have allowed you to postpone doing them.

So, in answer to Sarah’s question, yes, there’s a chance you may hear before the 15th by a couple of days. But there’s also a chance that it will be later in December as well. Good luck to all of you.
