<p>OMG OMG OMG!!! How many days will it take for the mail to reach from california to Conneticut???</p>

3

<p>I think you will get the unofficial email before that.</p>

4

<p>So in LA I’d get on Thursday?</p>

5

<p>where did u get this quote from?? thanks</p>

6

<p>It’s from the admission’s director blog at Caltech web. I didn’t want to post the link as I would like everyone to put some effort to know Caltech and its website prior to getting in.</p>

<p>If you admire Caltech as much as I do you would have known this prior to reading this thread.</p>

7

<p>wow just because I havent checked the blogs doesn’t mean I don’t admire Caltech. I wouldn’t have applied to Caltech Early Action if I didn’t admire the school; that would be foolish.
I thought it was from an email that I didn’t get. I have visited the Caltech website many times but I havent in the past couple of weeks because I’ve been busy turning in other applications and I have tournaments.
I actually looked at the blog just after I asked you that question and found it there.
Thanks anyway</p>

<p>my heart skipped 5 beats when i saw that. I’m so anxious now. >.></p>

<p>It’s already been decided. All that’s left now is to wait for that letter.</p>

9

<p>just 5 beats? I’m listening to my whole library at 200% speed, airdrumming the bajeebers out of my room. Good luck to all!</p>

10

<p>wait so how long does mail take to get from Cali to NJ :P</p>

11

<p>Expect 3 days</p>

12

<p><em>gasp</em> so the 12th? or the 13th? ahhh</p>

13

<p>I can’t believe it’s coming out early. I’m so nervous. But I guess I’d rather find out about my doom (?) sooner rather than later, haha.</p>

14

<p>The admissions blog is here:
[Caltech:</a> Director’s Notebook](<a href=“http://caltech.typepad.com/caltech_as_it_happens/directors_notebook/]Caltech:”>http://caltech.typepad.com/caltech_as_it_happens/directors_notebook/)</p>

<p>There are also blogs of current Techers that might be interesting to read.</p>

15

<p>If I am in southern arizona should I expect it to arrive before saturday’s email?</p>

16

<p>Worst case: You get decision by email on 13th.
Best case: You get decision by mail on 10th.
Average case:
LA and surrounding area: 10th
Rest of California: 11th.
West/South: 12th
Mid West/ North East/East: 13th</p>

17
