Financial aid package before acceptance letter?

I find it strange that I got my financial aid letter before my big acceptance envelope. Is this because the acceptance letter is shipped via UPS (or some other package shipping company) while fin aid is mailed via USPS? This would make sense, seeing as how shipping companies only work Mon-Fri, but then again, packages have gotten lost on the way to my house before. While a fin aid letter is the same essentially an acceptance, I’d still like to have the letter saying I got in…

Has anyone else received their aid letter before the acceptance letter?
