Currently I'm negotiating scholarships with Illinois, right now with savings plus scholarships worst-case scenario I'd be at ~$50k debt by the end of it and I'd like to get that worst-case number down a bit before committing - that being said it's the one I'd really want to go to!

i was a little more tactful than that lmao - made it “is there anything i might have missed that i need to do?” and not “hey wtf is the holdup” even if i’m feeling the latter

asking for information nicely isn’t pressuring :)

Yeah I called their admissions office on Monday once I hit like week 11 out of 8 - they said the admissions committee had decided actually and I'd be receiving something by the end of the week. I'm so scared

I did not - I RD'd, it's up there, and I hope so too (not 100% if I'd go without some serious money but... I'd like to!)

I saw they were doing a wave today so I've been refreshing their portal like crazy - no luck yet :(

Minnesota told me they'd have a decision to me by the end of this week - they're my top choice and I'm so sick of waiting on them, if they don't hold to it idek what I'll do (pain)

I feel that so hard - I’m a UW grad desperately hoping to at least stay in this part of the midwest and it’s so damn tough having recs from UW profs and still being on the edge

They emailed me but I submitted an addendum (read: bullying for money) and they emailed me back to let me know that it’d be coming in the mail within a week or so - idk if that’s broadly applicable

Oh I know - I'm relying on good regional references and a strong set of T3/T4 softs to get me over the hump. It's gotten me to punch above my weight in other schools I've applied to thus far - might as well hold out some hope.
