Did I Get Accepted to this university?
I received an email from the financial aid office from this university I applied. the email wanted me to send a proof of citizenship so there would not be a delay on my financial aid package. I sent in the information they required and the person who answered my email said that she was going to send out my financial aid package throughout this week.
I have not yet received an admission decision letter yet, I am wondering if I got accepted or not? they are sending me my financial aid package so I would assume I got in.
