<p>I didn’t interview and I applied early, so I hope I’m not at too much of a disadvantage. I did fly to Northwestern for an overnight visit though in October, so I hope that counts for something.</p>

<p>I’d say give or take 3 days from the 15th. Do you guys think legacy helps that much? I’m a legacy, but I hate to believe that it gives me a huge advantage. </p>
<p>@lellywang I heard that decisions come out the Friday of finals week - so it would probably come out on the 12th this year</p>
<p>I heard the Thursday of finals week. I also visited and am a legacy. I really hope that all of these add up. (I can dream, can’t I?)</p>
<p>I’m in a dilemma on whether to check my application decision since it’s released days before my midterms haha</p>
<p>@Nuhopeful19 @hugzUK both my sisters went to NU so I’m a double legacy? haha hopefully it is an advantage! It’s uni after all.</p>
<p>Legacy does help in ED round. Having sisters in NU doesn’t qualify as legacy while parents and grand parents do!</p>
<p>I got 2 Cs my freshmen year and 1 C my jr year… my GPA is still 3.75 UW and 4.41 W
do i have a shot ED still? </p>
<p>@greenfire1431 Did you already apply? They use a holistic approach so maybe if your essays and recs are stellar and your extracurriculars are meaningful you’ll have a chance. </p>
<p>Legacy helps a heck lot! While having sisters in NU doesn’t count as legacy, they’re still very useful.</p>
<p>I’ve been so nervous. The waiting period is definitely the scariest part about this whole process. Do students get answers before December 15? </p>
<p>@rcz6144 I’ve been in contact with my admissions counselor, and she claimed that interviews will not affect the decision process. They’re just a nice thing to do for the university to get to know you. So don’t worry, you’re not at a disadvantage! </p>
<p>Expecting a decision dec. 12-15. @nrk0530 </p>
<p>I heard that for the past couple of years decisions have always come out on the Thursday of finals week. Hopefully we’ll get a decision by next Thursday.</p>
<p>@cms4515 I’m so nervous. This waiting is seriously killing me.</p>
<p>Does anybody have any idea when they begin sending out rejections? My brother told me that for many prestigious places including UChicago send out rejections as soon as they are… well… rejected. </p>
<p>I wanna know to…and i JUST got a confirmation that my app is complete. Wouldn’t that be a little too late?</p>
<p>@NUHopeful19 Trust me I know hahaha…I get daily panic attacks and can’t seem to focus on anything</p>
<p>I dunno if the ACT email thing has been cleared up or not, but I’ve gotten emails from schools I’ve never heard of in addiction to Northwestern’s. I doubt it means much. </p>
