<p>Will they email decisions Thursday?</p>
<p>I only think they email intl's (due to the fact it may take up to a week to reach them by snail mail).</p>
<p>No, don't they send the decisions to international students via courier?</p>
<p>So, are they sending them out today? I've been oddly patient these days. Too busy worrying about school exams to care too much about the decisions.</p>
<p>I am just bumping this thread up so that it will be alive by the time we get our decisions. :)</p>
<p><em>bump</em></p>
<p>hmm...we have made it to 2 pages before any decisions show up.</p>

<p>Which isn't surprising when people keep posting impertinent rubbish like that in it. ;)</p>

<p>so is everybody basically set on the fact that they sent it out on thursday?</p>
<p>Either Thursday or Friday, probably. </p>
<p>I think we're going to have to start a new thread for our decisions; this one's getting very cluttered!</p>
<p>meh, its all good. it'll let next year's applicants see how antsy we were for decisions and when they were sent out. lol.</p>
<p>Did anyone here got their decisions on Saturday? If not, I'm betting that UChicago did not mail on Friday or earlier. I'm betting that mailing was Saturday--or more likely will be on Monday, Mar. 28.</p>
<p>that sounds reasonable. Illinois students would have received mail if it was mailed on Fri. or Thurs. However, UoC's stated desire to notify students before the Ivies would run into problems if it's mailed on Mon. considering that that the Ivies are online Thurs.</p>
<p>I don't remember any Illinois EA people getting their mail the next day...so it would not be unexpected for people to get it Monday or Tuesday.</p>
<p>sounds like someones already recieved their acceptance to UChicago, they say they "just heard back from" them.</p>
<p>nice. so that means they mailed them on Fri/thur? or was that guy lying?</p>
<p>have people gotten in already?</p>
<p>i am taking this as a no, no one has heard yet.</p>
<p>i guess i am bumping then...</p>
<p>got my decision in the mail today.. </p>

good list of ECs.. at least 2 year commitment. held several leadership roles</p>
<p>i'm so sorry, mate - really really sorry about this.</p>
<p>hmm - i've got a feeling that all of us internationals who applied for fin aid are in dire straits.</p>
<p>If you are rejected then I'm rejected. My mailman is trying to get sex from the single mother across the street and hasn't moved for 30 minutes. I'm just waiting for him to finnish business so I can get my rejection letter. Yea, peace out guys, I'm done for.</p>
