I understand Stanford has been sending out physical rejection letters. Does anyone know if that is instead of, or in addition to, an email notice of rejection? And are they doing the same for WL/acceptances?
EyeOfTheHurricane

for acceptances, they call you and you receive an email confirming ur acceptance the same day or next. for WL, you get an email and your portal changes to “Decision Letter Sent”. For Rs, your portal changes to “Decision Letter Sent” and the physical rejection comes in the mail later. So just keep an eye on your portal
