<p>hey i emailed my councilor with updates to my application but i never got a reply back. should i just assume she has updated my app?</p>
<p>It seems to me as though not many people have been told about their decision. Have any of you guys received a call today??</p>
<p>My close friend who lives in Europe received a phone call today. He got off the waitlist. So the phone calls already started. Somebody said one will get notified even if one does not get off the waitlist –> wrong. You don’t get notified if you don’t get accepted.</p>
<p>Some facts:
- Waitlist calls has already begun.
- Chicago is definitely going to the waitlist.
- Nobody knows how much people they’ll accept from the waitlist.
- It will be a waste of time if you log on to CC every 5 minutes and come to Chicago thread to get any useful information, because there isn’t any.</p>
<p>Cheers.</p>

<p>Wait, what? How do you know this? I can understand rejection notifications being very late, but there must be some kind of cutoff point–I’ve heard the date June 20th around here. They won’t even give a decision to rejected applicants at all, ever? Jesus…that just sounds ridiculous. How long does it take to draft up a form email to applicants who wait for months for word from a school they’re still interested in?</p>

<p>If you never get the call, you should assume you didn’t get in. They’ll tell you when they’re ceasing wait list activity, but that’s about it.</p>
<p>I’m going to have to force myself to stay away from CC for a few days. You guys are encouraging, but also pretty depressing at the same time if that makes any sense.
Again, good luck everyone.</p>
<p>for those that were called … what all have you done to get off the wl??</p>
<p>you send a new interest letter… But I personally think sending a bottle of jackdaniels or johnny walker wouldn’t be so bad either.</p>
<p>how long have people here been waiting for a response? I’ve been waiting since I was deferred… and then waitlisted. They must be really paranoid about yield. I wish that they’d just reject me or something already… I really need to move on.</p>
<p>^I’ve been waiting since being waitlisted RD… wow, I can’t imagine being deferred both EA AND RD. That must be so infuriating!</p>
<p>I emailed Uchig and they said you WILL get notified if you dont get accepted, via email.
Who got called already -please post here!!!</p>
<p>This is driving me crazy… and keeping me from studying from APs. Signing off, guys.</p>
<p>What do they tell you exactly when you get a call? ive heard of only 3 instances of someone being called already.</p>
<p>Tell me about it! I can’t concentrate on my IB exams at all :/, well according to the waitlist letter most people will get a response soon. </p>
<p>Good luck to you all!</p>
<p>Yeah im wasting time on CC instead of studying for IB. THink of the opportunity cost.</p>
<p>Would it have helped if i asked one of the accepts in my school to mention my name and sort of endorse me when they told uchig that they werent matriculating</p>
<p>1 I hope you are not serious haha.</p>
<p>A mere prospie, who is not even going to attend, endorsing someone?</p>
<p>Please don’t joke, that is too funny</p>
<p>LOL dude it actually crossed my mind, my GC also said they might write to chicago as there are like 3 ppl from my school on their waitlist - any comments?</p>
<p>I got off the waitlist. My regional counselor called my house on April 25 but I didn’t get a chance to talk to her till the 27th. Basically she asked if I wanted to remain on the waitlist and if I had visited. I said no but I was still enthusiastic about attending UChicago. Then she told me that I would receive my acceptance later in a week. It actually came earlier, I think around May 1st then I accepted my offer on May 3rd.</p>
<p>P.S. If you were wondering I didn’t send any supplementary info and an interest letter. I meant to but I got bogged down by studying for 9 AP tests which is why I was really surprised when I got in.</p>
<p>lol should i start losing hope?</p>
<p>
DON’T
STOP…
BELIEVIN!!</p>
<p>there’s always next year! haha :D</p>
