For those will take gap year, what your plans for the year? I am thinking about intern, volunteer, taking certificate exam
Did anyone here not get the update to their portal?
I got rejected on the day I called the regional admission officer lmao
A couple people probably won’t get the update since the college will want to keep a few on the waitlist in case people drop out before the fall
Out…
@rdomh Congrats! What day did you get the call if you mind me asking?
How frequently and what do you mean by creative?
not sure if this applies in general or just in my case but in my first LOCI i included a weird short poem i wrote. my AO really liked it and mentioned it in his reply and the call when i got into 2023 that he thought it was funny. i’m 99% sure that’s what helped me stand out on the waitlist. also i sent 2 LOCIs spaced out about 3 weeks between them
as for my gap year plans i’m trying to do an internship and work in the fall and i applied for a gap semester program in europe the spring
How long does it take for gap year 2023’s portal status update?
@cookiemonster28 Was the topic Chicago or the college admissions process or something random of interest to you?
i wrote about a ridiculously random topic
my portal updated the day after i got the call
I also got 2023 gap year. Anybody got in 2022 from waitlist?
I’m really late to this discussion, but I also got into the class of 2023! I didn’t know anyone else got in, and I’m really looking forward to not being alone in this when we enter next fall!
Late to the party here, I just accepted a spot on the waitlist for transfers, anyone else in the same boat? Anyone have an info about transfer waitlists?
This was the last communication from UChicago, the admissions counselor.

@hj0091 We have now closed consideration for the Class of 2023 gap year option, and at this point our admissions cycle for the year has concluded.
@maroonpen The transfer process has now concluded.
@talkingtrees Please e-mail your admissions counselor, and they will let you know if they need additional information. Please also know that it’s very rare for offers of admission to be rescinded.
