<p>This week, some speculate the fifteenth, some say third week of December. Anyone ask the admissions office?</p>
<p>i think the decisions will come out by the 15th.</p>
<p>ToChicagoIGo: Somehow, I think we've done everything but that. :)</p>
<p>stasis: Really hope so.
Butternut: One of us should.</p>
<p>ToChicagoIGo: I vote for anyone but me.</p>
<p>esopha: Not me.</p>
<p>hm, don't mean to hijack this beautiful thread, (and if someone answers it, I volunteer myself to call!) but does anyone know how much weight, if any, UChicago puts on first-generation status? Many state universities say they do, but I've never heard a private say anything about it.</p>
<p>I've heard 12th or the 13th.</p>
<p>I'd say 12th. Considering last yr. was the 13th after unexpected surges in applications and that this year had 15% fewer (unexpected) it makes sense. Friday the 12th is the last business day of the week and Chicago probably has more than enough infrastructure to process applications - thus being able to release them the 12th or even earlier.</p>
<p>That seems soon......</p>
<p>Too soon......</p>
<p>Do they announce the date/time, or is it just going to pop up in your email box/chicago account? If it's the latter, I might just die in a slow, painful death this whole entire week!</p>
<p>Last year they did not announce date/time. The email just showed up at about 4:30 pm. In fact, they were so swamped with apps last year that we were really surprised it happened as early as it did. S expected it to be after the 15th.</p>
<p>...so what day are we feeling?</p>
<p>I'm going to go with Thursday the 11th, just because last year they released the decisions on Thursday the 13th, and they have fewer applications this year. Plus, I like Thursdays.</p>
<p>Hopefully Thursday. Or even Wednesday? Since there was such a decrease in apps this year...<em>whispers</em> Tuesday?</p>
<p>Tuesday would be glorious.</p>
<p>I know we're all excited by let's not get ahead of ourselves...besides, I already got mine!!!</p>
<p>Daggerman, you've heard already?????</p>
<p>ahhh i cant wait! But if I don't get it, then it's not meant to be...</p>
<p>I'm excited to know... but if it's a no.... oh my.</p>
<p>OnYva- haha no I haven't, just wanted to excite some of my fellow uchicago applicants</p>
