<p>I noticed two or three topics talking about when a college sends something telling whether an applicant made it or not, instead they have a password to log in the computer and find out. Is that to save all the paper they’d waste sending giant envelopes to students, just a new method of acceptance or an easier way to deny certain people? Ha, I’m just curious.</p>
<p>Not quite clear what you are referring to. Most colleges, particularly for those who apply by electronic application, give you an ID and password when you apply that then allows you to check your application status on-line at any time (the on-line file will usually show whether necessary materials have arrived such as test scores, etc.) and then you can log-on on the date decisions come out to see whether you were admitted or rejected. They still also send out letters of admission or rejection by mail but those usually arrive after the decision is available on-line.</p>
<p>Oh alright, I guess I just read something a little confusing in one of the topics. Thanks. That’s good to know they still send out the admitted envelopes.</p>
