The OFFICIAL University of Chicago RD Decisions "Discussion" Thread - Class of 2013

<p>Ok people. You can spill here!</p>

<p>Hi, I'm Butternut, deferred EA, and I've been a Chicago addict since last summer. :) :( :o
And as you can see, I'm starting to get bi-polar about admission decisions.</p>

<p>I almost had a heart attack when I saw all the Offical Decisions threads (instead of checking my email, I check CC forums). I thought decisions had come out.</p>

<p>My first choice school is a bit of a long shot. Chicago is more of a match for me and, well, everything I have ever had to do associated with this school has been spectacular. I would really love to get in.</p>

<p>I've loved Chicago for a long time but almost didn't apply because my parents were unsure about it. It's probably my 3rd top choice, behind two Ivies, but I still think highly of it compared to them. </p>

<p>To be honest, I'm kind of scared that my essay isn't quirky enough to get it. There are a million other things on my app that make up for that, but it was an essay I originally wrote for a different school. (It was a last minute decision to apply... literally the weekend before applications had to be in at the guidance office.)</p>

<p>yeah as soon as i saw this thread i went to chicago's admissions website to check my status lol....no such luck. hopefully it will be this week... :(</p>

<p>Haha, what if someone made a thread titled "DECISIONS ARE OUT!!!" Everyone would immediately check the website upon reading it and start freaking out.</p>

I am an international applicant too. From what people in CC say, decisions might come out next week I guess.
Sorry about MIT. I know how it feels to be shot down, but I am sure you will find the best school for you.</p>

<p>MIT was really tough to get in this year from what i gathered..good luck to all</p>

<p>Yeah! Only two people got in right?</p>

<p>^Wow MIT must have a really small class this year :D</p>

<p>Lol! :D I meant two people from India.. hehe :D</p>

<p>thanks for the support neethu.
@ab that was hillarious!!!!
last year decisions for uchicago came on 3/19.i hope that decisions for uchic are soon so that i can smile again if accepted.
so, did u guys apply for finaid?it is really hard to get in with finaid i have heard. I didnt</p>

<p>I did apply for finaid. Frankly I am not hoping at all. I got shot down ED at my top choice school cos of finaid.</p>

<p>which is your top school?
when do u think dec for uch will be announced?I think 20 friday!</p>

<p>My top choice was Dickinson. :( I had sorta hoped(ok dreamed) that decisions would come out today, and that I would get accepted and everything :D cos today is my bday :) (tats right.. you can wish me now) :D</p>

<p>I'm banking on March 18. They released decisions on the third Wednesday of March last year.</p>

<p>Really? That would be nice. Will put me outta my misery sooner.</p>
