English, Miami University *I am the previous acceptance. To the other person asking about the website: I received an email on the 13th saying my status would change in 24 hours on the appweb site (where the application was submitted). I checked it today and a decision letter was posted with my acceptance. So it was through the website that the decision was posted.
