UChicago EA/ED Class of 2021

I sent in my application today. I’m applying ED. Hoping to here good news!

Just sent in my EA application. All the best guys! Mid-December can’t come any quicker :stuck_out_tongue:

Submitted my ED app last night (still can’t believe it’s done) with Philosophy and Art History as my academic interests. Best of luck to everybody applying!

Submitted my ED tonight; I really loved my Uncommon essay. I’m so relieved that all my early apps are in. To any other early applicants reading this - best of luck!

Submitted ED too. Good luck all as we anxiously anticipate mid-December

Submitted ED too. Anyone from China too? :slight_smile:

Applied ED. I’m an international student from China. Fav school since my junior year…

just applied EA! Wanted to do ED, but financial aid was a concern RIP
anyways, hoping and praying we all get in!!

Submitted ED on Monday. Now for the long wait…

I’ve been wearing my UChicago apparel for good luck lol!

Does anybody know when ED decisions will come out?

EA/ED decisions should come around 12/15 @jasonfan1234

My counselor predicts 12/8 or 12/9, but don’t hold me to that!

It was 12/18 last year.

Sorry, 12/8 or 12/9 for early decision, not early action. Apparently, the college delays EA release dates to maximize yield, since there’s no point in extending admission to people who can’t attend because they’ve already been accepted ED somewhere else. With ED, they don’t need to delay the release if there’s no concern about being accepted somewhere else and not being able to attend.

That would allow ED applicants to deposit first and be ahead for housing over EA candidates which I guess makes sense.

How do I check the status of my application to UChicago? I got an email saying they received my application but how do I know if I’m missing any documents? Thanks!

@Sandy12345 did you get an email that said “Your UChicago Application is Complete”? If so, they have all your documents.

@Sandy12345 at some point, if you’ve turned in all the admissions materials, they should send you an email with the subject ‘Your UChicago Application is Complete’

Oh okay yeah I did so that means they got everything. Alright thanks so much! @dartagnaneb and @sunshine232
