Concentration of Gaussian random matrices
I know that if $X$ be a random matrix distributed as $N(0,I_n)$, then $frac{1}{n}X^TX$ is concentrated around the identity matrix. Does any body know the probability of $P(||frac{1}{n}X^TX-I||<delta)$?

A relatively recent paper by Vershynin (arxiv/abs/1004.3484) shows how to answer this question. He's mainly interested in asymptotics, but working through the proof of Proposition 2.1 would give you the result you want.

Another approach that would be looser yet would be probably a bit easier to compute is to apply Tropp's matrix concentration inequalities and bound the norm of a Gaussian vector with high probability. See Section 1.6.3 of arxiv/abs/1501.01571 for this.
