When should I hear Back?

<p>I sent my app in in early September, and my transcript wasn't sent in till like October 20. I've had the "Your application is in review status" for a while. When should I hear back? will it be like 1/15 or will they announce some decisions earlier? If so when is likely?</p>

<p>Some decisions will likely be made before January 15th. It’s hard to be patient. My D had everything ‘in’ as of 9/2/10 and is still waiting. Two years ago my S had everything in also by early September and he was admitted in early December.</p>
