Hi! I applied for Geography at Christ college, but I thought that the letters would be emailed automatically. Is it too late to email them and ask whether or not I have been accepted or rejected? The wait is killing me!

Correction: Christ's are one of those emailing 12th.

Also: I have found the following re email decisions. If anyone has confirmed info on other colleges please post it for everyone's benefit

Cambridge Applicants - Decision Day 2015
Decision letters are sent to all applicants by First Class post on 9th January.
Most (est. 93%) will arrive at UK addresses on Saturday 10th.
Do not call colleges about decisions - results will not be given over the phone.
Below is a list of colleges with published or otherwise known methods of sending decisions by email.
Other colleges may also be emailing – if you know one not on the list please mention me and I’ll add the info.

Christ’s College
Decision letters will be posted 9^th January
Copies will be emailed to all applicants on 12th January

Downing College
"Decision letters will be posted first class (9th January). Applicants with non-UK mailing addresses will also be emailed on Saturday (12^th)."
They have also added that if you want to be emailed you should contact [email protected]

We will post decision letters to all applicants who had interviews in Cambridge, overseas interview candidates, and affiliated applicants on Friday 9 January (this is a university-wide posting date). We will then email the text of decision letters to all applicants on Monday 12 January (you do not need to request this). Please note that this will take us all day - you will not necessarily hear from us in the morning.

Decision letters going in the post Friday so earliest they'll arrive is Saturday!
International applicants: e-mail on Mon to get yours

Robinson College
(as per confirmation email)
“International students the outcome of their application by email after the pool closes. The others would be sent by post I believe.”

St John’s College
(as per confirmation email)
“I can advise that no email notifications will be sent out until Monday 12 January 2015.”
Though this is only for international applicants.

Trinity College
https://www.trin.cam.ac.uk/applicant-information
Decision letters will be posted to all applicants on Friday 9 January 2015 (University-wide posting date). We will also email the outcome to all applicants on Saturday 10 January 2015. We are unable to give any decisions over the telephone. UCAS Track will only update once the central Cambridge Admissions Office has given the decisions to UCAS (they will do this by the end of January).

Trinity Hall
(as per confirmation email)
“On Monday 12 January, I will email all candidates to let them know the final outcome of their application. I shall assume that you are happy to receive the news via email; however, if you would prefer receive the news by post instead, please let me know (though obviously a letter will take longer to arrive)”

Good luck!
