Do they typically make an announcement on social media first? If yes, when does that usually come out?

285

Last week it was on March 15th, 6:40pm Central on their Twitter NUAdmissions

The decisions were released everywhere at 7pm Eastern time last week so I would expect it to be the same time if we get a wave today.

@tamagotchi that’s a good point (especially for next year’s applicants who may be deciding whether to select “Yes, I’d be open to spending my first semester abroad” on the app). My DS23 is in a similar position (as I suspect are a lot of others). Since his major is environmental studies he’s got more flexibility (and fewer long sequences of courses) than some other majors, but still his APs do really shrink the course catalog at many of the overseas locations. I hadn’t yet factored in what’s not available in the Spring because they had it in Boston in the Fall. We will definitely have to factor that in when deciding where to enroll.

Anyone know if they cross reference applicants who showed interest with an on campus tour visit?

According to the 2022–2023 CDS “Applicant’s level of interest” is “considered.” (options are: very important, important, considered, not considered) It would fit with that that they would make a note in the applicant’s file if they visited or engaged in other activities to show interest. But I don’t have any inside knowledge!

Yes, but you have to be very careful about “Demonstrated Karma”

If you visit the Boston campus on a weekend when the basketball team loses, the karma factor can really work against you.

Did the kids get an email telling them to check the portal?

296

Yes, but usually a half hour after the decision is in the portal.

this happened with ea too and after the decisions came out it said smth like “decided” so my guess is that they still need that title there even if the decision is coded in
