Implications of the EA extension

<p>A little concerned about the implications of the EA deadline 11/15.... My original plan was to wait for UChicago's decision to come out around 12/15 and work on my other essays. If I get in, I might work on maybe 3 more essays for RD round, but if I don't I'd have to work on maybe 8 more essays. UChicago is currently keeping mum about whether they are going to stick with their usual EA decision or not. If the decision date is pushed back, I'd have to work on some the essays now. </p>

<p>I wished UChicago could've thought this through a little better...</p>

<p>As I recall, despite the extension last year, Chicago came out on the same date.</p>

<p>Cannot be 100% sure. But Chicago has had a habit of extending deadlines (EA & RD) recently for various reasons.</p>

<p>During the past two years its EA deadlines were extended to 7+ days each. But its EA decision days were almost a week before Christmas like its peers.</p>

<p>I guess it will be true this year too.</p>

<p>OK, thank you guys. This is very helpful, and this is what CC is about :slight_smile: </p>
