Going by the decision dates from previous cycles, it looks like there is a steady trickle of acceptances after the big wave is over. So these February postmarks might just be some of the trickle.

Haha. Interesting
Due to the statistically inevitable fuck-ups in snail-mail, several applicants last year got an admission email or packet prior to their original admissiom letter. Don't be alarmed - you're in! I don't remember any "accidental" acceptance emails going out, that would be too unprofessional even for cls

It came in a white envelope.
The first page says Dear Admitted Student, Congratulations again.....

Isn't the acceptance letter envelope blue?
Did they address you by your name in the letter? Sounds a bit weird if they didn't. However I haven't been admitted so I have no idea what to expect.

No Letter, just a handbook with a form letter as the first page but the envelope had the right name. I will call them.
TAKE IT AND RUN!!!

I mean, yes, calling them would be the most responsible thing to do. Also that acceptance letter probably had your butler/hammie in it, so you definitely want to locate it ASAP ;)

I called them and I'M IN ! and with a Butler YAY! The letter was mailed Jan 24. stats 176, GPA just under 75%

The problem with this 2/3 postmark is that it gets my hopes up again, only to be dashed again (or at least I'm guessing that will be the case)

I am just hoping for that email from the Dean congratulating for getting in without ever receiving a letter.

What is the latest complete date to receive a letter so far? I really wish I could've submitted my apps earlier...

Seriously? What are you waiting for?
