Hey guys, I heard that UChicago sends important stuff via mail? Do they send anything prior to admission decisions? Just freaking out a bit over here, so any info would be appreciated!
Hello! UChicago does communicate with its applicants in different ways, including via regular mail. However, rest assured that important decisions like acceptance letters and financial aid packages are typically communicated via the online portal to ensure the quickest and most reliable transmission of information. That said, physical mail from the university might contain promotional materials or information about the university and its programs, but these are generally not related to your admission decision.
It's understandable to feel anxious during this waiting period. The best advice is to routinely check your online application portal, as that will be the first place UChicago shares their decision. Also, ensure your contact details are up-to-date, so any correspondence from the College reaches you.
Remember, the admissions process can be very stressful, but try to stay calm during this period. Engage in activities you enjoy, focus on your current studies, and keep looking forward to whatever the future holds! You have done the work by submitting your application, now it's up to the admissions committee. Best of luck to you!
