<p>@abear19 which school did you apply for? And congratulations! </p>
<p>Thanks! And Weinberg College of Arts and Sciences </p>
<p>Anyone apply to the school of communications?</p>
<p>rejected at 1:18 from the school of communications, but i was a long shot from the start. Good luck everyone!</p>
<p>Rejected from WCAS few hours ago, thought I had a decent chance with specific goals, 2240 SAT, 3.95 GPA from a top 25 university. I got rejected from almost every school I’ve applied to, so I guess my essay was lacking. I guess one more year here if I don’t hear any pleasant news from Brown, Johns Hopkins, or Chicago waiting list. Good luck to you all. </p>
<p>If any engineering applicants manage to hear back by June, please let us know! </p>
<p>Accepted to the School of Communication yesterday.</p>
<p>3.74 GPA
Theatre major at the University of Southern California
most EC’s had something to do with theatre, but also some other things from high school such as XC and a science-y job I had one summer</p>
<p>the BIGGEST thing I think made a difference was something else I sent in. I knew my stats weren’t brilliant so I sought out a way to make my stuff stand out. So I got a journal, and every day, I wrote down a reason why I wanted to attend NU. I did this midway of my first semester, up until the application deadline, for a total of 200 days/200 reasons. Yes, this may sound obsessive, but honestly it only took like 1 minute each day and in the end, I guess it helped me stand out. I guess what I’ve learned is that if your stats don’t make you a stand out, find your own way!</p>
<p>That is a novel way! Wayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy to go!</p>
<p>no one heard back today? With the trend for the past two weeks, I had assumed that a batch of rolling decisions were being released every Tuesday and Friday…</p>
<p>I was thinking the same thing. Let’s keep holding on guys.</p>
<p>I got rejected about a week ago as an engineering applicant</p>
<p>There seems to be such a disparate wait time for decisions. How long are they taking to decide on applicants?</p>
<p>@KingofSweden based on last year’s releases, a long time. </p>
<p>@KingofSweden, I know someone that didn’t hear back until the end of June last year, so a while. </p>
<p>@cj2017 Ouch. :-w </p>
<p>@KingofSweden, that person got in though! So there’s still hope. </p>
<p>Wow, this is moving unbelievably slowly. Last known decision was 2 weeks ago… last post was a week ago.</p>
<p>Just keep swimming.</p>
<p>I just sent in my grades from this term. Hopefully that speeds the process up for me?</p>
<p>I sent it in May 19th. Still haven’t heard back.</p>
