Princeton economics reject

[agent]

Since I asked the school to send the letter to Hong Kong, where I am staying at the moment, I think it will take at least 4 days for the admision/rejection letter to reach here.

How should I interpret this?

Hmm. I wonder if this means a bunch of letters will be sent out today, or if they are just going to do 1 or 2 again. If so, maybe I will have a letter when I get home tonight (mail from Columbia and NYU reaches me same day). Come on first admit.

finally. just got my rejection email. though the dean of the graduate school would be happy to provide me with a formal letter if i so desire. hahaha. not at all unexpected so i'm just glad i have another admissions decision!
