They didn’t say. It is rolling so they can push them out throughout the day. Some schools have a fixed time and date that they promised to release decisions on, so 5 pm would make sense if LMU did not release early action decisions on a rolling basis.
oh boy am I Anxious™️
So are we for sure getting our decisions today?
We are suppose to get them by the twentieth. But someone posted that admin said today.
@antc03 Not everyone will be receiving their decision today, but most likely people who turned it in earlier will receive their decision. I turned mine in the morning of the deadline, so it’s most likely that I will not hear today.
The earlier you submitted, the more likely today. If later/closer to EA deadline, then probably later this week.
Decisions may come out in the order applications were received but your response makes it sound like the admissinos officers are reading applications in order this week and making a decision on the spot and letting the applicant know. I am confident that the committee has been reading them all since Nov 1 and that each application has been read and discussed. Some will be weeded out as obvious decisions but a great many in the middle will be debated and discussed. I would reckon there is not a single application that is being read for the first time this week.
If I submitted my application on October 25th, do you think I will receive my decision today?
@antc03 Possibly, but I would probably say you’ll find out tomorrow or Wednesday.
Has anyone checked the portal or called the school? Fingers crossed!!!
I keep checking! Nothing so far. Although, I did send my application quite late so I think I’ll get it at the end of the week.
@CelestialDreams same
LMU received my application on October 22 so when do you think I will find out?
Is anyone there? Has anyone heard anything?
Still waiting
Last year the first batch of early action decisions came out on Tuesday, December 19 just a bit after 12 in the afternoon, and LMU even congratulated the admitted applicants on twitter. I cannot share the tweet because the system on college confidential has a thing about sharing links, but check LMU admissions on twitter and scroll down to December 19, 2017, and you will find it. This year it was supposed to be pushed out today so check at lunchtime because they are probably consistent with when they push out decisions.
It is almost noon. I hope that I hear today. I think they will try to get as many out as possible today, but if they don’t do it today check tomorrow.
It is after noon. I hope we hear today. The waiting is so much harder when the date and time are unknown. Good luck everyone!
I am going to grab lunch and swing back here really quick if I come up with any new information or hear anything. I emailed admissions to see if they have an update because they have information about the exact timing that you would not always find on any source on the surface. They may provide a timeframe. Considering they are working to get all the applications uploaded they may take a while to respond, and I hope they respond soon so I can update you. After lunch, I have a seminar class and we are having discussions in there and I don’t want to draw attention so I am going to take a lunch break, and I am dropping this seminar in February because I have an after school commitment starting in February, and I do not need the class to graduate. I am taking a class in the spring that meets twice a week but because it is split between those two days the meetings are brief and under two hours so I come home extra early, and may have other things but I will try my best to be available to answer questions about applications for UC schools, Cal States, and regular decision schools because I will know about all of those in terms of the decision in March so it is going to be a long three months before I hear as all the other schools I applied to do not have early action.
This is taking a while. I hope admissions responds to my email and it is becoming less likely that it will come out in the afternoon, so maybe I will hope for this evening.
