Can someone please just confirm for us that they got their mail and there was no letter there, so that I can go on with my day... [ Reply | Watch | Flag ]

I think it's safe to go on with your day. I just spoke with someone at the enrollment office to find out if we might hear today. She said no b/c the letters have not yet gone out. She said they will go out in the next day or so. I also spoke with someone from G&T today who did not know whether the letters had gone out, but confirmed they will go out this week. [ Reply | More

or: No. She sounded a little weary, so I didn't push. I didn't give my name, but for some reason I'm always afraid they'll exact retribution on my kid if I'm too much of a pita. That's stupid, I know, since the DOE has been so absurd through this process, but I don't want to piss off anyone until I have our letter. [ Reply | More

This is consistent with the post on Insideschools, saying they had spoken to Nikki Kram Rosen (in the G&T dept) who said that letters will go out on Friday and we'll receive them next week. I am hoping maybe we'll get ours in Saturday's mail, but at this point, I am truly losing interest. I'm starting to just move past it. [ Reply | More

It's nice to have this info, but this is so frustrating. Why would the DOE post on their website that families would receive letters this week if they are not going out until the end of the week? Why not pick a later date they can stick to and spare us the agony? I guess I need to move past it too and not believe anything until I have the letter in hand. [ Reply | More

Maybe they will email them first -- I got my rejected twin's public PreK acceptance emailed tome at 11pm last night. Better keep checking your email! [ Reply | More

Too bad. In the future, I sure hope this all becomes web-based. My SIL just got her medical residency (which involves some complex matching) online. And colleges have been doing it for quite a while! [ Reply | More
