I’m super worried there are no spots left since its the first year of ED. This is my dream school and the only reason I didn’t ED was because of money… I’m hoping for the best, but won’t be surprised if most RD people get waitlisted.
My D is hoping for good news today but realizes the school has already taken a huge part of the class EA/ED1/ED2. She needs to compare scholarship offers from various schools so applied RD.
Good luck everyone!
Also very worried about the very few RD slots that remain after EA/ED. I have seen some references in other threads that it could be as few as 300. If that is the case, factoring yield rates, it does not look good.
Is it bad that I can’t see an application checklist?
@nuttyprofessor Nope! They remove them pretty randomly; i.e. seeing one or not seeing one does not indicate admissions status.
uchicago is my top choice and i just realized that recently… this is gonna suck
I find that stressing simultaneously over two midterms, a lab, and 2 papers helps to keep your mind off decisions.
How do people know how many spots are left for RD?
They dont. It’s just speculation @Jamie151
oh okay thanks :'D i’ve been watching movies all day to get over the knot in my stomach
900 accepted ED1 and EA probably another 400 ED2. the rest for RD.
I’m scared. i want to go to uchicago so bad it hurts but i’m so subpar in everything
why didn’t i get my stuff together and apply ea
@mackyg your twitter replies to admissions gives me life
So there should be about 1000+ more spots? @chrchill
Much less. Class size is what? about 1600?
last year they accepted around 2500 students though, but yes @Chrchill around 1600 enrolled
If we expect about 40,000 people to have applied and they only accept 7% or around that range then approx. 2800 would be accepted in all which would mean that there would be about 1,500 spots for RD if your numbers are close @Chrchill
Their yield from the early rounds should be higher this year because of binding ED1 and ED2 as opposed to EA.
@bluedreams ayyy glad I could make you laugh
