BAMFtastic Posted April 14, 2013 Author Report Share Posted April 14, 2013 No one else is inclined to believe House? Haha I'm not, eventhough I want too! I would be very suprised to hear tomorrow, but I wouldn't mind knowing, regardless of the verdict. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest CCOP Posted April 14, 2013 Report Share Posted April 14, 2013 No one else is inclined to believe House? Haha I'm just preparing myself mentally to receive the letter around April 23rd. If it comes before then, all the better. I think that in past years the 'advertised date' (i.e. the date they tell to people who call) is usually the absolute latest date, and it typically comes out earlier, but who knows... All I believe is April 19th because that's what the administrative people have declared! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mjd2012 Posted April 14, 2013 Report Share Posted April 14, 2013 haha i am trying not to believe house because I have an exam tomorrow.. cannot deal with a letter (regardless of what it says) before that 3 hr exam is over....... another thought.. do you think that MUN Med would send them out before this Friday? exams at mun aren't officially done until then so most undergrads are still studying like crazy. a letter, of any sorts, would surely mess up most of us. do you think they would try and wait in order to avoid this? or would they not even think of that and just send them when they're done?

abba Posted April 14, 2013 Report Share Posted April 14, 2013 I personally don't think they would care about exams. Half of the applicants probably aren't even writing now (grad students, working professionals, etc). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah I don't really think they're workdays revolve around the lives of MUN undergrads (except when they get interrupted by calls and emails all day). There are lots of non-undergrad. applicants. I can't see them holding things up to protect your anxieties, but obviously I might be wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This was my understanding for sending them out on the 19th. They didn't want to throw a major wrench in students exam period. Which is respectable to stay the least.

mjd2012 Posted April 15, 2013 Report Share Posted April 15, 2013 Joke is on you House, I needed to check the mail 5 times today anyways. lol well, to save you the trip... all letters will be coming registered mail. so this means that your mailman/mailwoman/mailcarrier/mailwhoever will be coming to your door and will require a signature. unless maybe somewhere more rural perhaps a pick-up at the post office will be required. either way, i highly doubt they will come via the mail box!

Guest CCOP Posted April 15, 2013 Report Share Posted April 15, 2013 This is killing me! ahaha Today flew. I completely forgot to think about the mail because I was so distracted by the tragic events in Boston. As an athlete at the varsity level who has been involved in many festive competitions I found this so devastating... On a lighter note... Maybe tomorrow?

BAMFtastic Posted April 16, 2013 Author Report Share Posted April 16, 2013 Today flew. I completely forgot to think about the mail because I was so distracted by the tragic events in Boston. As an athlete at the varsity level who has been involved in many festive competitions I found this so devastating... On a lighter note... Maybe tomorrow? I skied on the international circuit for 5-6 years, but I didn't find it hit me from a sports perspective. I think the marathoners got hit when they were already down. (You just ran close to 4 hours - you'd be exhausted.) I found a more profound affect to be from a pedestrian’s perspective. The people who died were innocent by-standers. It would be the equivalent of just walking into your favorite store or chilling on the sidewalk when your life changes/ends. Regardless, the people who came to help those afflicted are the ones who we should support and praise. P.S. Did any of you see that photo of the girl that was "running for sandy hooke" and "died"? I can't believe it. First, if it were true, why are they plastering her name everywhere, but secondly, it was a young boy who died - a boy who was on the sidelines (and no, this does not make it any less tragic) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ANewf0990 Posted April 18, 2013 Report Share Posted April 18, 2013 Last 2 years the letters have been dated for Friday and received on Monday. Hopefully it's the same this year.. This past week has felt longer than the last 5 months Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Munmedhopeful Posted April 19, 2013 Report Share Posted April 19, 2013 Lady at the admission's office told me we will find out next week - she said she didn't know what day but at the latest we would find out is next Friday.

BAMFtastic Posted April 19, 2013 Author Report Share Posted April 19, 2013 There are many ladies at the office, and I think they are all giving different answers Expect them on the 22/23 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hockeypenguin04 Posted April 19, 2013 Report Share Posted April 19, 2013 Since the letters (are expected to) come in registered mail, do we need to be home to sign for them? I'm not sure what registered mail means exactly, or how it works. Good luck to everyone and enjoy the weekend! My last final is this afternoon so I'll probably be drunk until Monday in any case bahaha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ajc260 Posted April 19, 2013 Report Share Posted April 19, 2013 I actually asked about the registered mail thing last time I called. They told me that if somebody is home, anyone can sign for it but if there's nobody there, the carrier will leave a notice slip and you have to pick it up at the post office. Not sure how it works in rural areas though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jrmch Posted April 19, 2013 Report Share Posted April 19, 2013 When mine came in March, my dad signed for it at the post office (they put a little slip in my mailbox saying there was a letter waiting at the post office for me). I'm not sure if it's any different for people with PO boxes but I'm guessing it's the same. I'm on the rural route system. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BAMFtastic Posted April 19, 2013 Author Report Share Posted April 19, 2013 Anyone can sign for it. Mine is coming to my uni, and the resource center is able to sign for it. Similar to UPS etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
