It wasn't. It was about housing.
Yup. Scholy info will come in a separate letter.
Does it come separate from the admissions letter? I received that today.

I also got both the admissions letter and the finaid/housing letter today. So I wanted to see if this means I should not be expecting a scholarship, or if it's just coming later...

Yes, it does. It comes last, unfortunately. The first two letters I received were 1) acceptance and 2)housing. If you've received a merit scholly, you should probably hear back later this week.

May I ask when you applied and went complete?

Bummer, that's terrible news for me. On the other hand, congratulations to you!

Thank you! I wouldn't say it's terrible news for you; I don't think there's a lot of rhyme or reason to how/when they make admissions decisions. Best of luck.

Maybe today... I live out in Texas, so I expect to wait. Are you from Cali? If so, you should get it before I do.

I'm currently about 20 mins. from UCI...I almost want to drive over there and demand my letter...that kind of impatience would reflect poorly on me though...sigh.

That does make me feel better, thanks! I am in CA so I thought I would get it pretty soon but I guess I will just have to be patient.
