Urgent--when Will I Get My Ea Decision

<p>I know I've posted this elsewhere, but no one has really answered me. Im going on vacation on Dec 16. I live in the Chicagoland area.
1. Will my application get here before I leave, and
2. If not, can I check it online while im on vacation?
Feedback would be much appreciated.</p>

<p>I have no idea but perhaps you can call them</p>

<p>Maybe, maybe not. Some people around Chicago got their decisions on December 15, but some people actually in Chicago didn't. Decisions are NOT available online. You'll probably get it in time, but there's no way to be sure. You might try calling them, like User suggested. They normally don't give out decisions over the phone, but they might make an exception.</p>

<p>You CANNOT get it online.</p>

<p>Why don't you just call the office to find out? It would be easier than posting something to get unofficial answers.</p>

<p>ru sure they dont post online?--other schools do</p>

<p>odyssesy -
If it doesn't come - and if a neighbor will be collecting your mail, you could ask if you could call or email them to determine if a big (9 by 12 or so) envelope from UChicago has arrived by, say, the 18th.</p>

<p>Yes, I am sure.</p>

<p>If you really care, go online and find out.</p>

<p>i called them regarding it because im going on vacation as well... you call them and change the address to where you're going to be staying.. they are not allowed to tell you over the phone</p>

<p>When does UChicago mail the decisions? On Dec. 15?</p>

<p>hm.. i'd be on vacation too.. but, i read a post saying that they will e-mail intels? so i can actually check my mail on 15th for it?</p>

<p>Hey elemental...where do you live abroad? This might be a little freaky, but the UChicago's international FAQ page implies that only decisions other than admission offers "may" be emailed. Check that page.</p>

<p>hm.. i live in singapore.. i'd check that page.. how else will we find out our decisions?! it took almost 2 weeks for my reports to reach chicago.. and my teacher's reco even got lost in the mail... if my decision envelope does get lost somewhere... i'd be crazy</p>

<p>if I recall from last year's cc postings, UoC sent international letters/packages by DHL</p>

<p>so when exactly do they send them out via mail? Dec 15? B/c all they say on their website is mid dec.</p>

<p>I think I GOT mine on the 15th after it being said they were going out on the 15th</p>

<p>if I remember correctly they mailed on the 13th and chicago people were able to post here pretty early.</p>

<p>It's funny how all the other people on other boards are doing countdowns and we don't do one because we don't have a clear idea when decisions will be sent.</p>

<p>yes... worse thing... i'd be away.. so most prob i wont noe my decisions till 17 dec when i come back from hong kong</p>

<p>Hey elemental_rights, do you attend an international school in Singapore?</p>

<p>nope... i attend a local school... im a singaporean by birth... =)</p>

<p>Hmmm...are you applying for aid? I'm aware that internationals applying for aid aren't allowed to apply EA.</p>
