UChicago EA Applicants 2019

<p>Where did you guys submit your additional FA documents like tax returns? By fax or by uploading?</p>

<p>@FuzzyPeaches22 You can upload them.</p>

<p>Hey everyone, just joining in on the agonizing wait… I can’t decide if I should hope or just expect the worst! Ahh this is awful, but at least we can all wait together haha…</p>

<p>Question about the favorites essay: I submitted mine before really looking at the CC threads, and now I realize I may have done it wrong… I did a list format and briefly touched on many different favorites (I thought the question literally said to list them :open_mouth: ), but now I’m seeing that most people chose to go into depth with one favorite – do you think that will be a major hinderance? I really hope not, but… You never know with these really selective schools! </p>

<p>my kid did what you did. I don’t think there’s a right or wrong way.</p>

<p>@kateko My D also did what you did.</p>

<p>@kateko I did a list format too and just wrote a couple sentences for a few of them!</p>

<p>Ok cool! Glad I’m not alone in that! :slight_smile: good luck to everyone!!</p>

<p>Has anyone started their RD apps yet? </p>

<p>@awh671‌ Barely… I have like zero motivation for some reason. Even though this is so important haha. Have you started yours?</p>

<p>@alleycat2 I selected the schools on the Common App and marked them RD. Other than that no lol. Idk we have Thanksgiving break coming up and I’m gonna try and be productive and not sleep through it all.</p>

<p>I sent in my Cornell RD app so far, but that’s because I did it awhile ago. I have to do Berkeley and USE over Thanksgiving break, hahahaha… haven’t started the essays.</p>

<p>I sent in my RD app to Midd and Tufts already, but I’m with @alleycat2‌ in saying I have zero drive to do any more. Maybe my early decision results will push me </p>

<p>If you guys do get into UChicago will you take some schools off of your lists? If some miracle happens and I get in (I think I’ll get deferred), I would definitely take at least three schools off of my list. Getting into UChicago would give me like negative motivation to apply anywhere else lol</p>

<p>I’m probably the most indecisive person ever… I’ve already submitted all 16 of my apps (I know it’s ridiculous). Now it’s just seeing where I get in and what the financials look like… that’s the major concern, right? Don’t want to leave undergrad with heaps of debt :neutral_face: However, UChicago is definitely at the top for me! I’ll probably get deferred though haha</p>

<p>omg 16? wow respect man haha :D</p>

<p>i’m working on my uc application right now</p>

<p>@alleycat2‌ I also think I’m going to be deferred, but if I get in, I’ll definitely lose motivation for some of my RD apps. I mean, I already don’t want to do them…</p>

<p>Honestly, if I get into UChicago early, and deferred from Brown early decision, then I’ll apply to the only other school that could take me away from UChicago, which is Yale. I mean having a school as awesome as UChicago already in your pocket, you can take a risk and apply anywhere. </p>

<p>It’s almost December…</p>

<p>I wasn’t going to post anything on this thread but I’m freaking out. I actually am having recurring dreams about my admissions decision.
Honestly as far as RD applications I wouldn’t send in any if I got in EA. Honestly I’d probably put my deposit down same day. I’m so sure about UChicago.</p>

<p>I just scheduled my interview! I’m SO nervous but I’m really glad I’ll be able to do it. I didn’t even know they were even still doing interviews so I was surprised when I got the email</p>
