It means they don't think you are a total moron, deserving of immediate rejection. Look at it as a first cut situation with good prospects for final admission.

Not much, I'd guess...just post-app advertising.

Yea I thought it was pretty generic, but it has an invitation to an event in April so it seemed kinda odd.

Are you from Weston, MA, btw?

That letter means your pretty much in...

I applied to UNC and did not get that in the mail today. Maybe I suck?

This is what I would assume as well. Schools are funny like this.

yep, it's a likely letter. It basically means you're in unless you seriously tank your last semester or get kicked out of school or something. congrats.
