<p>I have just submitted my ED application a couple days ago. I did not receive any from NW saying they got my app or anything like that. Only confirmations from the CommonApp. I send in my transcript and ACT and SAT II's but I want to make sure they received them. Does NW send status updates? what should I do?</p>
<p>And while I'm at it, what are my chances of getting in?
Rank: top 4% out of about 600 students
ACT : 34
Solid Recs from teachers I am close with.
Will have taken 7 APs and a Dual Credit course through UofI equivalent to Calc 3.
Decent Extra Circulars</p>
<p>Alright, so NU (note: not NW. It’s not a state with a shortened postal code, it’s Northwestern University), if I remember correctly, takes a bit to tell you got the app. If they didn’t get something they’ll tell you, and give you a little leeway if what they ask for is sent promptly but a little late.</p>
<p>Pretty good, but ED chance is still only 1/3 (if last year’s is similar to this year) which is still hard chances (plus some of those are legacy which is a little boost, and often recruited athletes are pushed to go ED if I remember correctly).</p>
<p>My daughter received a note from NU that her application was complete about two weeks after she submitted. Based on what you have put here, I’d say your chances are good.</p>
