<p>Maybe!!!</p>
<p>Dec. 18 is probably their last day before the break. I would not be surprised if decisions did not come out until then, but I think we can be 99.9% sure that they will come out at the latest by the 18th; no one in the office wants to be working over Christmas!</p>
<p>Good luck to everyone!</p>
<p>Haha!Maybe!!!</p>
<p>THnx!!!I hope decisions will come out aspa…oh well…no point of saying this.But Good luck to ALL!</p>
<p>I would rather be surprised than know a week in advance. Or I suppose a day or so in advance would be ideal.</p>
<p>Announcing MIT decisions 9 days in advance was cruel.</p>
<p>I suppose everyone is different when it comes to handling news that will alter your life. Some like surprises; others don’t. </p>
<p>Regardless of when we find out, many of us continually imagine in our minds how we will react. We picture ourselves opening the website and seeing the word “Congratulations!” at the begining of the message. We continue to read the message but our minds race and our elation doesn’t allow us to digest the words we’re reading. We cannot get beyond “Congratulations!” and the joy that comes knowing your dream has come true. But we can also picture ourselves opening the website and seeing the phrase, “I regret to inform you.” And, again, we read the words but don’t really digest them. We instead sink into a depression, questioning whether we’ve wasted the last four years, whether any school will have us, etc. </p>
<p>The only good thing about this process is that it awakens rarely utilized levels of emotions.</p>
<p>Wow…this waiting is really stressful. Especially when my friends are hearing when their decision will be released. On a side note, my best friend gets his dartmouth decision in 10 minutes!! I wrote his peer rec and edited his essay, so if he gets deferred/rejected, I might cry and feel completely responsible :(</p>
<p>He got deferred…I feel like such a bad person now…</p>
<p>I’m sorry to hear that. But really, you shouldn’t feel responsible. It was his essay afterall. And the peer rec doesn’t carry enough weight to change the outcome of the decision. Dartmouth is just a competitive school; you had no impact on his differal.</p>
<p>I still feel pretty bad though…he is my best friend.</p>
<p>Sorry to hear about your friend, that’s sucks :(. On the flip side I wrote my friends peer reccommendation and edited her essay as well for dartmouth and we found out she was accepted! By no credit on my part she is our valedictorian and I think it helps that we are in the southwest so there are fewer applicants from our state and region . I’m kinda jealous she gets to find out so early , I hope I can react to my Chicago letter with as much excitement and relief as she reacted to her dartmouth letter.</p>
<p>Hey motion, sorry to hear about your friend’s decision, but I’m sure he greatly appreciated you writing the letter! That’s something only true friends do. :)</p>
<p>Dartmouth accepted 400 out of 1200 ed applicants. That’s a substansial increase from their regular decision accortance rate. Hopefully chicagos pattern with their ea mimics that.</p>
<p>You shouldn’t get your hopes up, ED acceptance rates are always high.</p>
<p>whether good or bad, I long for a result~</p>
<p>when do the results come out?</p>
<p>I guess it’s just up for grabs.
We all have to breathe a bit more. Even though I can’t. I’m trying though. </p>
<p>“the only good thing about this process is that it awakens rarely utilized levels of emotions” --HAHAHA
good luck! I hope we ALL magically get in!</p>
<p>would they release decisions tomorrow, seeing as it is a saturday?</p>
<p>Why will they release on Saturday?..Do they work then?</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>That made no sense, friend.</p>
