tasteomycheese Posted March 18, 2008 Share Posted March 18, 2008 Hey guys, I'm a Master's applicant to Columbia's EE/CE program. Like many of the Columbia applicants on the bulletin, I received notice of admission via Columbia's website/E-mail around 3/3. I've noticed that a few people received their postal packages more than a week ago, and I have yet received mine. What could this mean? Since we were accepted at around the same time, could this delay be attributed to a possible funding offer? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maa Posted March 21, 2008 Share Posted March 21, 2008 Are you an international applicant? If you are, then it might be a reason for delayed mail. Some schools send all mails through US postal service which takes few weeks to reach the destination. For example, one school sent me a document through normal postal service and it took almost 5 weeks to reach me. I am afraid if they send my I-20 over normal mail, I might miss my visa deadline. :cry: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pointedears Posted March 21, 2008 Share Posted March 21, 2008 As far as I know, the i-20 is ALWAYS sent by priority mail(mostly FedEx). It is because they need confirmation on receipt of the form. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tasteomycheese Posted March 23, 2008 Author Share Posted March 23, 2008 Nope, I'm a domestic student. It's been more than 3 weeks since my initial acceptance and still no mail. sigh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
