I was also deferred and then rejected. My grandmother attending Northwestern for her MBA, but that was over 60 years ago. Nonetheless, I did not have any message regarding my (potential) legacy status.

@wishmeluck19 We got that too. Mom and 2 aunts went to Northwestern.

@RaLaSrSa The Financial Aid packages are also in - go to the Financial Aid tab and they tell you what to do (which involves setting up a bunch of accounts and finally getting into the right server!)

Son rejected with 32 ACT, walks on water, etc. Bygones… Great offers from SMU, Richmond, W&L, and Davidson on the table, so he’ll have lots of opportunities…

Son rejected after being deferred. Was really hoping since NU was his top choice. Luckily, this is first and only time will have to go through this. This has been the most anxiety-filled and stressful time ever. The whole process is a joke! Hoping for good news on Thursday.
