Has everyone who's heard from Hastings in the past week heard by e-mail first, followed by a letter? Or should I continue to stalk the mailman?

Other way around - letter arrived in mailbox first then email. That could be, though, because mail from SF takes 1 business day to get to my residence. Not sure how it would work for people further away (2+ mail business days)

I got some merit based scholarship, but no info on need-based grant and loans.
I called them and I was told the earliest day they could send me entire financial aid package is in the first week of April.

I found out via snail mail.

I received my decision on 2/16 (via USPS) and the merit aid offer came on 3/5.

Does anyone know how many students are in each class at Hastings? I assume they divide into small sections right?

They sent me an email and tell me that I have to make some commitment before 4/1 in order to get the scholarship. Then, I received a letter a week later.

I'll be with my parents, but I'll be wearing an olive button-down shirt + white pants. And I'm Asian (should be a minority, right? lol). Just shout HEY IT'S A MALE HUMAN for good results.
