Did not receive a early notice of admission. Does this imply rejection/waitlist?

[guest672]

I noticed several people have received acceptance notifications from UPenn M.Arch program. In the 'notes' section few people have written "early notice of acceptance". I have not gotten any emails about my application status. Does this imply I have been rejected/waitlisted? UPenn's website reads admissions decisions will be available on March 14th. So I am wondering if early notices  of acceptance are sent to very strong applicants or is this just wishful thinking.
