UChicago class of 2016 Early Action applicants unite!

<p>yea what time do results come out???!! I’m so nervous</p>

<p>They apparently say they’ll come out “late afternoon” so my guess would be around 5 PM. They also said that if you were accepted, they’d be mailing out an acceptance package the same day…so be patient and good luck!</p>

<p>^The same day??</p>

<p>I just got my mail. If I didn’t get the letter, does that mean I’m out, or just that I’ll be getting it tomorrow. And is that five pm central time then?</p>

<p>I have no cuticles left. I may start on pulling out my hair now.
I have World Time Clock tab open and feverishly keep checking it to see UChicago time. Bczo I am too frazzled to do the simple math of substracting 11 and 1/2 hours from my local time. I need help. :D</p>

<p>Wikipedia says that evening starts at 17:00, so I am desperately hoping that “late afternoon” is well before 17:00. Just hoping and waiting.</p>

<p>@joejoe1993- This is what I found on the website for last year:
“Friday you will receive an email with instructions on how to view your admissions decision via your UChicago Account. We will also mail admitted students their acceptance packets on this day. Deferred and Denied students will not receive notification by mail.”
I am assuming this is the same for this year…</p>

<p>i’m pretty irrationally nervous right now. i just got my mail a half hour ago and there was nothing from uchicago. when they say they mailed out the letters today, does it mean that we were to receive them today or that they just postmarked them today? </p>

<p>AH IM FREAKING OUT</p>

<p>Hey everyone - just to ease the stress a bit, in the “Ask an Admissions Counselor” thread, the UChicago representative has posted that although an exact time has not yet been finalized, decisions can be expected to be released before 5 pm CST.</p>

<p>So expect to know your fate before or around 6 pm Eastern Time!
(Since they’ll be mass-emailing almost 9000 applicants - I’m guessing there will be a delay in each of us receiving our emails too - so once you guys get emails, please post on here so we all know that we should be frantically refreshing!)</p>

<p>Good luck to everyone :)</p>

<p>(P.S. Also guys - they’ve said they’re mailing out the letters today, so there’s no way you’ll have your acceptance letters today. You should get them in probably around 2 days - but maybe tomorrow if you’re lucky!)</p>

<p>Postmark, I am VERY sure. :slight_smile:
COz I got some letters from Unis last year and I got em much later than they said the would mail em. They were postmarked at the correct date, tho. Hope this calms you down a bit! :)</p>

<p>yay there is hope yet…</p>

<p>the office closes today at 3 p.m. so I am guessing/hoping that they are released at 3 chitime. zomg so soon</p>

<p>For the love of God, WHEN IS IT COMING?</p>

<p>so it’s not 3 pm.</p>

<p>Freaking out…I almost am scared to check my email later on.</p>

<p>I’ve never been so nervous!! Ahhhh >.<</p>

<p>Yet another hour has elapsed. I guess it’s on to 500pm.</p>

<p>I seriously cannot take this any longer.</p>

<p>maybe 4. probably not. wishful thinking.</p>

<p>Watch it be at 3:21 Chicago Time. Would be epic.</p>
