I got the acceptance form as well along with the 2 letters (grad
school + dept: CSE) in the email. I got this only on Apr 21st. So will
take time for my hard copy to reach I guess. I sent my acceptance back
by email.

Any idea how long does it take to receive I20? Grad coord said they
will start processing I20s by early May.

Yup... U'll first get your admit letter from the Dept. which you shud
confirm by sending an email or fax. Then you'll receive your
acceptance letter. Both these letters via snail mail. Lastly, they'll
send the i20 thro' USPS expess mail(courier).

They'll not give any seperate letter giving ur i20 details. I sent my
financial docs along with my appln. I received my decision via email
on march15 and got my i20 on april 16. so it took a month to get my
i20.

 I had not sent my financial docs along with my application. Also I received my admit quite late on April 21st. So have not received the postal mail either. I mailed k gray and also plan to drop in a mail to the cs program advisor. Will this do until I get the postal mail?

Has anyone received i20 for ms cs?

@rushi,

any idea to which address we must send our financial docs? and what amount did you show?

@harini kumar:
to the same address to which you sent your application.
I showed a bank loan of 20 lakhs and around 15lakhs in savings a/c for
my i20.

I had graduated when I applied. So I sent a photocopy of my degree
certificate attested by my institute. It was accepted. Generally
universities issue a "Likely to Graduate" certificate. This is
required for your Visa Interview as well. So try contacting your
university about this.

Question regarding the two snail mails.

My grad coord (Alan Glass) emailed me the Offer letter from Grad
Admissions, Dept. and also the acceptance letter to be sent. He had
mentioned that I will also receive the Offer letter from Dept. by
priority mail and the Offer letter from Grad Admissions by regular
mail. I received the Offer letter from Grad Admissions yesterday but
still not received the Offer letter from Dept. Was wondering if
priority mail is slower than regular mail !!! I also see that ppl
generally receive the dept letter first.

Any comments?

Sorry. i had my semester exam yesterday. So couldn't reply

@ sairam:
Even i got my dept mail only after the offer letter from the grad
admissions. I got my i20 approx 10-15 days after the second mail.

@arjun: regarding wat kind of bank docs to show for i20, refer edulix.
there are lot of discussions on that.
