I applied at the very end of October, and went complete shortly thereafter. I was accepted a couple of days before Xmas

Let me know if you want any other info--I can pm you!

I live pretty close (well, on the east coast anyway) so I bet yours is coming soon!

I would congratulate all of you, but your lives are set forever. You hardly need anything else.

I got the good news weeks ago but haven't received anything in the mail yet. How long does it usually take?

Wow, so I might conceivably withdraw before I receive them. Do you get a regular acceptance letter, or is the mug / note the first thing that comes?

You get a
big 3 ring binder first; I got mine *really* quickly (in about a week) even though it was over Christmas. Might be worth a call or an email...

They say that they don't want to be called or emailed, though, on their website and in their automated application-complete email. I don't want to aggravate them. Perhaps it got lost in the huge blizzards that they've been having on the East Coast.

Weren't you accepted pre-winter break? That would account for ~ a month of the wait.

Dude, it's pretty effin incredible Asha goes to the effort to write EVERY admit a personalized note. Just appreciate it when it comes...it's hardly something any of us is entitled to.

I'm sorry for sounding disrespectful and impatient, and I certainly did not mean to sound entitled. Of course, it's a wonderful gesture. It's just that I need to make my decision by late March, and I was hoping to get the note before then.
