Explain! and congratulations!!

Thanks for the congratulations

Because I live in Japan, It took a week for my acceptance to arrive--not that I am complaining!

I am deliriously tired... I thought you meant you were shipping the ring or something.

Anyway, that's great! What an awesome week!

Decision mailed 2/21! I'm trying to decide if it's worth calling Fed Ex or if I just wanna wait it out...

Edit: Also, my current mailing address is a PO Box... if it's an acceptance, will they be sending it to my permanent address?

I'm sorry but I'm morbidly curious, why is your shipping address a PO box? sketchy business on the side? :p

Haha no, it's a university mailing address. The school gives us each a PO Box at the on-campus post office.

Just called FedEx and apparently I have a package coming to me tomorrow. No way to know if it's the Vanderbilt decision though...

Now that I have $$ from Chicago, probably only a full ride + stipend. But I didn't apply for those. Basically it wouldn't be money, it'd have to be a life circumstance that required me to be close to my family.

Last year people received them ~March 1.

I'm guessing they will be sent this week and we will receive them early next week.

Um. Still sitting quietly at complete 11/30. Vandy is the only school that I have left that could make me leave CA... Can't they just reject me and rip off the freaking bandaid?
