Turns out there was nothing there but credit card statements and junk mail, which is probably some kind of metaphor for my life in general. But anyway, no, I applied to Johns Hopkins a few years back and they sent their rejection () via snail mail, too. I also checked my app and realized that i put my current address as good through May 2015, instead of 2016. >< hope that doesn't bite me in the ass later.

Oh no! Well, hopefully, if they don't feel comfortable about the address they have, they'll just give you a call or send out an email (if only to confirm your location)?

Ofterdingen Posted February 8, 2016 Share Posted February 8, 2016 (edited) Here to claim the BC posting. I got the letter through old-fashioned snail mail this afternoon (it was signed on the Feb 4), went online afterwards, and noticed that nothing was updated there yet. Best of luck to everyone out there! Edited February 8, 2016 by Ofterdingen philosophe 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lisamadura Posted February 9, 2016 Share Posted February 9, 2016 2 minutes ago, sybyll said: So question for the BC people. What does your application status say online? Does it have a big "completed" on it? Mine seems to just say that they will review it when completed, but has no requests for any more documents or anything. I assumed that meant done. Now I'm feeling all silly, like I missed something. Under the "submit confirmation" tab there is a document that says "You have successfully submitted your web application" with a red "submitted" stamp on it. There doesn't appear to be any way to check application status beyond this point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am going to assume that I haven't received anything in the mail because I live just about as far as you can get from Boston so the acceptance letter has further to travel (don't tell me where you live, I'd rather remain comfortably within my delusions).
