Any ideas of what the notification date will be?

<p>Some peer schools are going to release the notifications really soon such as WUSTL (most likely today evening) and MIT (officially 3.14) and UChicago (officially 3.15). From past years, NU releases decisions around 3.20, just before the final bombing of decision release by so many schools. Has anyone heard of some news regarding to notification date this year? Can anyone offer some insights?</p>

<p>Website says BY 28th.
People on the RD thread say 22nd.</p>

<p>Last year, RD decisions were released on 23rd, a week before the said “BY 29th”.
Also, supposedly, Spring break’s from 23rd to 28th? So high chance that they’ll release decisions before the spring break.</p>

<p>Yet, for now, it is still 28th. If Northwestern’s releasing it before that - we’ll get to know on the day/or 1 day before the day of release I guess!!</p>

<p>While it is often said that past performance is not always an indicator of future results, when it comes to admissions results, look at the the past as being somewhat predictive fo the future. For example, WUSTL stuck to its form by releasing RD results today, as expected based on the last few years. If I’m not mistaken Northwestern has released its RD results for the last few years at least 1 week before the Ivies. I agree with those who suspect that March 22 will be the magical date.</p>

<p>The ED release was the Thursday of their last week of first quarter. So chances are the RD release will be on the Friday or Thursday of the last week of second quarter (Spring break) so 22nd or so.</p>

<p>Are Northwestern decisions online or by email or regular mail?</p>

<p>Email with a link to a website that’s just their letter of acceptance, rejection, etc.</p>

<p>@rishav17 @Crimsonstained7, I think the spring break basis is pretty convincing. So I think it’s 22nd now.</p>

<p>It held true for ED that it was right around the end of the fall quarter (Thursday of), so I would expect it would be right around the end of the winter quarter (Spring break) now, too.</p>

<p>“Undergraduate Admission decisions will be released via email no later than Thursday, March 28, 2013.” ([Office</a> of Undergraduate Admission - Northwestern University](<a href=“http://www.ugadm.northwestern.edu/]Office”>http://www.ugadm.northwestern.edu/))</p>

<p>So that means 22nd? since they released 23rd when they said BY 29th last year?</p>

<p>No one can say for sure, but sooner the better to ease the stress levels and anxieties of the CCers. Good Luck, every one!</p>
