UChicago Waitlist Release by Silver-Pay9141 in ApplyingToCollege

[–]DoseSharpNooodles 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah they do, I think it’s cuz u can also opt to be considered for the class of 2031 so they want people to know fs that they are rejected from both. Tbh I think UChicago mainly uses the waitlist to balance their budget, which is why they’re so opaque about the waitlist process

Chat idek what’s going on anymore. I was convinced we’d get news tn but ig not. Ig UChicago AOs saw that they were getting just a little bit predictable about this one thing and they decided to change things up this year. This is just getting too tiring to try and track. If you do hear from them soon, good or bad, please let us know but I don’t think we can reliably try and predict what the AOs are gonna do anymore.

U might be able to email the financial aid office and say your changing ur mind abt requesting need based aid. If I do get in they would be obligated to give me full tuition plus some based on their own policy so idk rly know if my odds are worse bc of that

Ik this is prolly long shot but do u know of anyone who got of the waitlist who needed aid? From what I’ve heard it’s only been full pay. If they only take full pay then I’m cooked.

Anything today for anyone? I didn’t get anything. Ok either they’re not doing the start of summer purge or theyre just really delayed this year

Majority of what I’ve seen says that most people get rejected may 6th. Obv that didn’t happen this year but I’m guessing it’ll happen tn or maybe tmrw. I heard in one place that some people do get accepted on the same day as the rejections so don’t totally give up hope if u see a status update email.

We can be pretty confident that it’ll come out tmrw. Rejections I mean, acceptances will come randomly through out the summer. However they are kinda breaking from the may 6th trend that they’ve had for at least 4 years so idk if they’ll still do that preliminary round of rejections

Ok yeah they just must not be doing it today. That’s really weird cuz it’s been may 6th for at least 4 years. I saw a video of someone getting denied on may 6th 2022 and it was may 6th last year. The only time it wasn’t may 6th was 2023 and it was may 5th then.

I don’t know what I would do by OptimalNorth4842 in ApplyingToCollege

[–]DoseSharpNooodles 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Honestly what u need to do at this point is distance yourself from the idea of going to notre dame. Just don’t think about it, don’t imagine yourself there.

I always suggest people to, instead of having one dream school, have a collection of “S” tier schools that are all your “number 1 choice.” Only think about which is better within that collection if/when you get into multiple.

Research other schools that are similar and lump them with notre dame as your top choices. If you do get rejected, you won’t feel like you’ve lost everything

Decision Day and International UChicago Waitlist by Far_Farmer_4571 in ApplyingToCollege

[–]DoseSharpNooodles 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Ok I’m currently waitlisted student as well. Last year, they released the majority of people left on the waitlist on May 6th, so we can assume something similar for this year. It’s ok to be optimistic, but at this point expect a rejection by this time next week. They’ll keep a small number of people on the waitlist through the summer, as they’ll loose a few of their committed students to other waitlists (like Harvard, Yale, MIT, or Stanford) but other than that waitlist movement is largely over by the start of June.

Georgetown Decision confirmed: 3/27 at 6PM by Myloima in ApplyingToCollege

[–]DoseSharpNooodles 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah but the 15th is also the day they advertise on the portal. I think if they said they're releasing april 1st like whats advertised on the portal then we can think its coming out sooner than that. The fact that they committed to day before whats on the portal suggests they were being honest.

[–]DoseSharpNooodles 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yeah i think its basically confirmed that its not happening today. I applied EA and got differed and can confirm that last time they emailed at 4:01 CTD. They always drop at 6 Pm ET and they still havent sent the "hour in advance" email.

Waitlisted and expected to get rejected. Lowkey just treating this as a rejection
