@Iniesta15 Ya why not
Rejected after getting deferred ED. UChicago deferred me & rejected me just now too, haha. Sheesh, well it’s been a long & stressful ride.
Congratulations to everyone who got in~ c:
Wait listed curious as to what other peoples emails said, did we all get the same one?
rejected
Rejected.
Three rejections in one day. Great
Accepted! Wow this is so surreal!
@lindsayHarvard Not from my experience at our alma maters. Both my kids, who have great stats, got deferred from Uchicago as triple legacies. And I interview for the school. I think it might mean more at Ivies, but I don’t believe it does much at Northwestern or Uchicago unless you give a lot of money.
My girlfriend, who works at UC, says all it does is guarantee a second look, but doesn’t at all influence decisions.
It’s okay. I have one at Duke and my son got into WashU. He’s not in pain:)
When do you hear about aid?
I haven’t done it yet, but my portal said your aid is available after you activate your NetID. @beaglemom
two rejections so far today. Haven’t cried for anything recently but Northwestern being one of my top, top choices… I had to
Rejected, again.
Today so far:
Rejected from: Northwestern, JHU, Bowdoin
Accepted from: Colby
ACT 34/35S
SAT 1550
GPA 3.83
Special ECs, good essays
Same, rejected.
Rejected, oh well. The Lord has plans for all of us. A rejection just helps us narrow down choices.
Doesn’t make it hurt any less, man.
Congrats to all who got in. I was rejected. To put things in perspective for everyone … I’m estimating the RD acceptance rate was around 5% or less. That is a crapshoot … truly. Northwestern had 3737 ED applications and accepted 972 … 26% ED acceptance rate. Northwestern had more than 33,000 RD applicants. The total class size is about 1925, so more than half was filled ED. Assuming Northwestern’s historical yield of around 53% on RD, it means around 1800 were admitted RD … that’s less than a 5% RD acceptance rate.
Message to next year’s applicants: If you really want to go to Northwestern, apply ED.
Rejected, one of 3 today. But it is okay! I still have great options.
Rejected; Keep your heads up everyone and congratulations to those accepted you truly deserve it and I hope you prosper at NU
Waitlisted at NU and UChicago! Not bad imo.
GPA: 4.6
Rank:3/458
SAT: 1400
EC’s: too many lol
Congrats to all who were admitted!
Rejected, but accepted at Bowdoin and Hopkins, so I’m not sweating it!
