<p>I applied Regular Decision... when, more or less, will I hear?</p>
<p>Last year, we heard in late March. Sorry I can’t be more specific, I don’t remember exactly. Good luck to you!</p>
<p>I believe my S got his email announcing the decision on March 25, following up on April 1 with his accpetance into the ISP.</p>
<p>The day can’t come soon enough… I’m sure you are all eager for news, plus D can’t wait to learn which of her friends will be joining her next year!</p>
<p>Northwestern said “You will receive an admission decision by mid-April.” Does that mean on a certain day in mid-April, or sometime BEFORE mid-April?</p>
<p>Based on previous years, I would say that it means before mid-April.</p>
<p>Sounds like only a few more weeks to wait! </p>
<p>In the mean time, are people starting to hear from any other schools you’ve applied to?</p>
<p>So exciting! Does anyone know how we check decisions? Do we just get an email one of these days or how exactly does it work?</p>
<p>@postscript2011 - I’m not sure about RD, but for ED the news that there was a decision available online arrived via e-mail. By the way, several people later found the e-mail in SPAM for some reason… I think it came from an odd address with numbers in it.</p>
<p>The e-mail didn’t tell you what the decision was, which was nice for those if us who wanted our kids to be able to find out the news before we did. ;-D</p>
<p>So before April or before mid-April?</p>
<p>The homepage for admissions says:“Candidates for freshman admission will be notified of their decision by March 31”

<p>Its sooner than we thought :D</p>
<p>Again, just last year (2010) the emails for RD went out on March 25. The student will receive instructions on how/where to log in for the decision. If admitted, a hard copy letter will follow from the university, and also from the college admitted to (or at least that was the case for WCAS.)</p>
<p>If you’ve applied for a special program, decisions on that will follow that of the university. For example, decisions were emailed for the Integrated Science Program on April 1.</p>
<p>Hang in there, everyone. The finish line is rapidly approaching. Go immerse yourself in the OTHER March Madness on the basketball court to keep yourselves distracted.</p>
<p>Thanks everyone! Not long now. :)</p>
<p>Not sure if it’s relevant, but D’s ED email came from this address; </p>
<p><a href="mailto:northwesternu@c.422x.com">northwesternu@c.422x.com</a></p>
<p>For some reason, the notification ended up in a lot of people’s SPAM, so it might be worth adding it as a safe address in advance, so you don’t miss your news when it comes.</p>
<p>March 31 is in four weeks. Yikes!</p>
<p>3 weeks and 3 days!</p>
<p>So nervous!</p>
<p>Me too!!!</p>
<p>Good luck everyone. :)</p>
<p>I can’t believe we’ve been waiting for three months, the suspense is killing me.</p>
