<p>i called admissions and tehy said “last week of march, first week of april”. but when i called to see when scholarship notifications came out, they said “last week of feb, first week of march.” !</p>
<p>Getting nervous guys :(<br>
The 10th/11th is so close. If the decision will be on the 10th/11th, WUSTL will be the first top choice decision I hear from.</p>
<p>Oh yeah baby! Feel the thrill! Cant wait baby!</p>
<p>Now I’m sorry that I checked this thread. I thought we had several weeks before getting that horrible nervous tension in the house waiting for the decisions. Exciting times for all soon to come!</p>
<p>It would be such a b0nerkiller if they waited till April 1st lol</p>
<p>It really would. My brain is already functioning as if in the next 10 days I will hear from them lol.</p>
<p>I’ve always had in my mind that the decisions came out at the end of March.</p>
<p>But hearing that they have a possibility of coming the 10th of March is so exciting because it’s so close! Hopefully I get in!</p>
<p>has anyone called admissions for a date? i’ve called them so many times, they are now even recognizing my fake voices!</p>
<p>^LOL!!!
So do decisions usually come out on a Friday? Because the 10th will be Sat and 11th Sunday(Eastern time anyway).</p>
<p>Look, people ask these questions every single time a deadline approaches and the procedure should always be the same: Check the Pathway daily and don’t bother the admissions office.</p>
<p>For what it’s worth, ED decisions came out on a Friday (December 9th).</p>
<p>Last year the decisions were posted on the pathway on March 11th and the official email came the next day. Just check the pathway on the 9th - I’m sure decisions will be available.</p>
<p>This is all so exciting! I really hope that I am accepted. The days leading up to the 10th are going to seem like forever.</p>
<p>Wow! I have nationals for track on friday, my school might announce valedictorian/salutatorian that day, and now this! what an exciting day!</p>
<p>Holy cow, just checked this, didn’t realize decisions would come so soon. The thing about Wash U at my school is that if you’re in the highest tier grade-wise, Wash U doesn’t accept you and waitlists you instead. If you’re in the upper-middle tier, then you’ve got a chance of an acceptance. I heard it’s something to do with acceptance percentages and stuff… but I hope that doesn’t happen to me:( I just wanna get in. Really bad.</p>
<p>^I don’t think they’ll play that stupid game if you showed interest or volunteered to have an interview…I hope…#FamousLastWords</p>
<p>When do financial aid offers come out?</p>
<p>@ThousandMiles
I hope so, I volunteered for an interview and I applied for scholarships and stuff (not that I got one, but at least I took the time to turn something in, right?)
BTW, I’m pretty sure I recognize your username from the Stanford EA thread, am I right? How’s life been since that crazy time 3/4 months ago lol?</p>

What do u mean by washu waitlisting highest-tier people, and upper-middle getting accepted? Also what constitutes being in the highest tier as compared to the upper middle</p>
<p>lelouchFTW: a lot of schools do this now–if your application makes you seem “over-qualified” for the school, then they assume that it is your safety school, or at least a school that you are not seriously considering, since with those stats, you will probably have “better” options; it’s basically about increasing yield rate–if they don’t think you’ll attend, they’ll reject/waitlist you</p>
<p>one thing i don’t get though is how someone can be over-qualified for WashU…I mean, it’s not the most selective school in the world, but I know plenty of students who have chosen WashU over schools like Princeton and Chicago. WashU is just one of those schools that has such a great personality that the ranking isn’t as important (though it’s not like the ranking is low AT ALL–just not top 10, which is important to some people…)</p>
<p>“highest tier” I suppose would be the 4.0/2350+ students with letters of recommendation from professors and government officials and who have done substantial research/started their own businesses/have 100 in-depth ECs/cured cancer</p>
