Northwestern Class of 2022 ED Discussion Thread

@nugraddad 6% vs 26% prev yr?..pretty big drop off…wonder why…

Is anyone here applying for computer science?

Did the Daily Northwestern say how many international applicants are there this year?

I heard NU did not see any increase of international applicants from last year. I think around 600 this yr.

@dragontd - Looks to me like The Daily NU needs some proof reading help… My best guess is that someone mistakenly wrote “26%” in the body of the article - should have read “6%”. And +6% increase in ED apps, on top of a long string of upticks in ED apps shows the trend.

Good luck to all!

What time does everyone think decisions will be updated on the portal?

@nu2022applicant What’s coming will come my friend.

ED decisions always come after fall quarter grades are released. Grades are released on Monday. In my mind, it’s done as a pick me up for the entire university after the disappointment of finals haha. So I would expect grades to come out next Tuesday earliest. -current student

@CaliCash do you know many days after fall quarter grades came out ED decisions came out last year?

7 days

@CaliCash do you think they will come out before next Friday?

@chicagocubs I’ll say Thursday 6 pm the earliest.

Hey guys! I created an account just to share my feelings and just want to chat the last few days off!

I am an international student that studied in the us for three years and I’m applying to SESP.

I don’t see a lot of SESP folks around here but I know it’s always out there somewhere!

I think the decisions are going to come out on the 14th, just because that’s what’s happening in the last 2 years…the thread for the class of 2021 and 2020 blew up in the afternoon of the 14th. Life will be so hard for me if I have to wait till the 15th because I am planning on it to come out on the 14th.

Best of luck everybody!

There is a good chance that the decision will be released on 14th. Last year, November 18th, the website also said the decision was going to be released Dec. 15th. But we all know it was released 14th (I used Internet Archive to look at last year’s Northwestern website). I say we have about 6 days left to go.

Is anyone’s right side of the application portal now blank? It seems like everyone’s is except for mine.

What time did the decisions come out last year on the 14th?

@captainL I am applying to Weinberg, but hoping to do a double-major in social policy if I’m accepted. SESP is one of their smallest schools, so it makes sense that there aren’t a lot of people on here applying there.

6pm EST, so kinda like supper time (maybe the admission officers can sent out the emails and went out for food right afterwards)

6 days
