<p>Do they even deliver email on Sundays?</p>

62

<p>The 27th is a Saturday.</p>

<p>And I guess yeah its possible. I don’t know why… they have to be done reviewing by now. And even if they had a few more to go, why don’t they just release decisions on Friday at 5pm EST?</p>

63

<p>I didn’t apply but my friend called and the answer she got was “before April 1st.”
So I think you guys are on the right track.</p>

<p>Good luck everyone!!! Hope you get in!</p>

<p>Is NU anyone’s top choice here?</p>

65

<p>Admission offices in general often claim the results are displayed on a later date in order to tone down the web traffic the day they’re actually released.</p>

<p>So…keep checking?</p>

66

<p>Keep checking what?</p>

<p>We’re waiting for an email. It either comes or doesn’t.</p>

67

<p>Previous admission dates:
Thursday March 26 2009
Tuesday March 25th 2008 (8PM)</p>

<p>I couldn’t find any earlier ones.</p>

<p>AHHH. can’t wait to find out…</p>

68

<p>Don’t believe any date the admissions office says. If bs were selling for a nickel a pound, they would be millionaires.</p>

<p>can you post that thread here plz?</p>

<p>It was the 31st in 2007, around noon.

<p>they could release it on a weekend; both caltech and mit did</p>

72

<p>Sometimes I think NU is my top choice, but I haven’t visited, so who knows?</p>

73

<p>I think NU is my top choice for my chances to get in. It is a little easier than Brown and Penn to get in- not that it is easy at all.</p>

74

<p>guys, the truth is they could post it any time from now until april. If we don’t hear something by 7 or 8 CST I think it’s safe to say that decisions won’t be coming today. My bet’s on Friday, but then again, it could be anything.</p>

<p>NU has been my top choice by miles since freshman year, so I can relate with you guys, but I feel that if we obsess over it, it will only compound our worries. I mean, I’ve been wearing purple non-stop, getting excited at the word “Chicago”, etc. But the truth is, calling adcoms will only **** them off more. </p>

<p>I’m not telling everyone else to just calm down, because that’s impossible for everyone, including me. But bombarding the admissions office seems somewhat counterproductive, and since many schools don’t have a set date for notifications, we can’t really assume when it will arrive - except for places like MIT (Pi Day), and the Ivies (4/1).</p>

75

<p>yeah guys, if you’re thinking about calling, don’t. they’re just going to get more annoyed and possibly postpone decisions (probably not, but you never know.)</p>

76

<p>Just an observation: None of the last three years were sent out on a weekend.</p>

<p>'07 was a Monday, '08 on a Tuesday, and '09 on a Thursday.</p>

<p>'07 is the only year they mailed decisions during a week that wasn’t a full week in March, so I think it’s fair to hope for today or tomorrow, but it’s also realistic to not expect them until mid-April.</p>

<p>BREATHE. :)</p>

77

<p>someone correct me if I’m wrong, but will they release decision at 6 p.m. CST?</p>

78

<p>

</p>

<p>Where did you get that information?</p>

79

<p>

</p>

<p>Ditto! 10char</p>

<p>^ well, if they don’t release it during the day like they did in '07, it’s almost always around 6-7CST.</p>
