waitlisted…
Was anyone that was deferred accepted?
Has anyone else still not gotten an email?
@crisisofexisting I haven’t
@crisisofexisting I still havent either
For those of you who claimed earlier that you did not receive an email, have you received one now?
Hello,
I have not received an email yet; also, was there a portal for Northwestern?
Thanks
@ganggang Still no email from Northwestern.
@soulpup your math is a little off. Northwestern’s total yield is 53%, but that’s inflated by ED statistics (who will go to NU with near 100% certainty). The RD yield is lower, around 30%.
NU admitted 3743 admits last year, so it’ll be comparable for this year. If 972 were ED, then ~2771 were RD. That makes the RD admit rate closer to 8.3%; still low, but not below 5%.
anyone know how many waitlisted students were finally accepted in past years?
You do not need to have received an email to log on and see your decision. Just go to https://ugadmission.northwestern.edu/apply/status and if you don’t have a pin, say forgot password. You will then definitely receive an email.
Also, be sure to check your promotions filter as that is where I received my email.
Accepted and I’m confused as heck but I can’t stop screaming! I only dreamed of this ever happening
Also make sure to check your promotions because I made a portal ahead of time using the link from yesterday so I just went in and logged into the portal anyway but after reading my acceptance I found it in my promotions/junk folder.
@realteddybear65 daughter was accepted at Chicago so will decline Northwestern waitlist offer
@Maggie1224 Last year I think 55.
Does Northwestern have any merit aid? D will likely decline this for other schools. o. She feels bad that she applies this after U Chicago EA…she had the essay ready and she got a fee waiver.
Sorry and good luck to at least one of you who can take her place!
@justanicekid I tried to use that link earlier, but once I enter my email and birthdate, the site tells me that no account exists for my information.

Looks like these universities are playing yield games… unfortunate for those really good candidates that do not get accepted at top universities just because of the yield games.
