**Rochester 2019 RD Discussion Thread!**

I’m from Michigan, and I got the email, but the server is still down, so I can’t see it. Does anyone know if anyone has gotten rejected yet??

Got the email, but I only just checked and the server is still done. Hopefully it will be back up tonight or early tomorrow.

so…does this mean I am rejected? Still on step 3!!! Have demonstrated lots of interest. sigh.

^^Means absolutely nothing other than you haven’t gotten your decision yet

Those of you getting accepted, can you post when you submitted your application?

@ivyhopefulebound I don’t think there is any connection between which batch of mail you are in and whether you get accepted. I believe they mail out acceptances all throughout March. Having said that, it looks like you are an ivy hopeful. I hope that works out for you!

I’m only speculating, but I imagine that Roch is making decisions all week and then releases them at the end of the week, so we should probably expect more decisions next week.

Has anyone got any denials yet? I haven’t seen any so I’m guessing that they will come in the very last batch.

I applied before Thanksgiving, so judging by this thread I’m worried that I didn’t hear from Rochester yesterday…especially since I’m a NY resident. I wish the server would work!

@delsenor We are in NY state. My daughter has friends from her school who haven’t heard back yet even though she did, and some applied in November. They are all strong applicants. A few Bausch and Lomb winners. One class Pres, one VP, all high stats. I really think there is some randomness as far as when people get their notification.

perhaps it is ordered by name? Son rcvd his packet in ca yesterday!!

If they are working from the end of the alphabet.

@VMT‌ nahh not the end of the alphabet. My last name is toward the beginning

@jamesjunkers @swanqueen @charmin1 @ivyhopefule I’m also on step 3–or at least I was the last time I checked (yesterday). The system is down right now. I applied just a few days before the deadline. Maybe we should make a thread just for us.

By the way, congratulations to everyone who got in!

@lavalamp97 feel free to if you would like, I’m too lazy :stuck_out_tongue:

Congrats to all who have been accepted and best wishes to all still waiting!

It’s been a nice thread to catch up on today!

@jamesjunkers‌ Me too, haha. Also I don’t know if there’d be much of a point anyway. I just need some way to pass time now that I know people are getting their decisions and I’m not… D:

Celebrating here. But feel so bad for those that got an email and can’t check the Roc account. Ugh.

@lavalamp97; I feel you - March is either gonna be really good or really bad. I’ve gotten into all my safeties; March is the month where I learn if applying to 6 amazing schools will pay off or not :D.

@jamesjunkers‌ I completely understand! I’ve only heard back from two schools so far, and I got into both, but they were kind of expected. Now is the scary time.
