University of Chicago Early Action Release Date

Does anyone know the exact date of early action decision notifications in 2017?

Nope. Questbridge applicants have gotten decisions already, I think, but otherwise, no. The UChicago page on College Board says they will release decisions by the 18th.

From their website: https://prospects.uchicago.edu/decisions
Take with a grain of salt.

A Sincere Thank You to our Applicants

As we prepare to release your admissions decision on December 17th, we want to take this moment to say “thank you” – you are ALL amazing. You have challenged yourself to explore meaning through language’s untranslatable words, to express your personality in terms of acids, bases, and buffers, and to successfully explore the oddity of odd numbers. You are among the most brilliant, ambitious, and academically qualified students in the world. We feel privileged to have shared in your ideas and accomplishments, and to have gotten to know you.

Best wishes to all,
James G. Nondorf
Dean of Admissions & Financial Aid

@ReqCollatz This link is posted literally every year. UChicago doesn’t have a “Prospects” page anymore, it lists all of its college admissions stuff under collegeadmissions.uchicago.edu. The link you’re referencing cites the decision date for… drumroll the Class of 2018. My advice? Hold your tongues until the 11th (tomorrow) at the absolute earliest. Last year, Nondorf updated the admissions website with the decision release date a week before decisions came out.

It looks like it will be the 18th. This year’s version:

“As we prepare to release Early Admissions decisions in the late afternoon of December 18, we want to take a moment to say “thank you”—you are ALL amazing. You have explored new areas of study at UChicago due to clerical errors, explained alternative groups of elements that make up our world, told us about your personal “armor”, and discussed your love of the imperfect. You are among the most brilliant, ambitious, and academically qualified students in the world. We feel privileged to have shared in your ideas and accomplishments, and to have gotten to know you.”

we made a group chat on Instagram to talk and stress about it, DM me if you want to join!

has anyone received their admission decisions that applied early action?

Other then likely letters for athletes, everyone will get them in the late afternoon- I assume this means 5 pm est since thats when admissions closes- on Monday.

The likely letter is a conditional acceptance and those that received it receive the actual acceptance on the 18th along with everyone else.

The LL does allow for room deposit though, so perks for dorm choice (for first years anyways).

good luck to everyone tomorrow!!! :0 I’m dying with anxiety

same ^^ also, has anyone received an email? I have not.

no
