When will WUSTL release RD decisions?

<p>Hey guys, I saw in the discussion section that some guys were saying WUSTL will release their decision really soon. But on the official site, the school still said April 1st will be the decision release date. So I was curious, when will they release their decisions? Many thanks to people who might know.</p>

<p>Based on trends, they’ll probably come out Friday evening. It could be later, but it will most likely be Friday and if not, I doubt it will be later than next Wednesday.</p>

<p>This is purely speculation, of course.</p>

<p>Note that April 1 means nothing because that’s the deadline they always use despite the fact that decisions are released several weeks early every year. You will also not receive an email before decisions are released, although you will probably receive one a day or two after they are released.</p>

<p>Look for the Pathway site crashing and displaying error messages as an indication that decisions are being posted soon.</p>

<p>Any idea what time on Friday?</p>

<p>I’ve heard 6PM CST, but obviously, this is all speculation.</p>

<p>The time tends to change a bit but it’s typically between 4-6.</p>

<p>Why hasn’t WUSTL notified any one about their decision date till now? Guys, I don’t think that the decisions will come this friday.</p>

<p>^That doesn’t mean anything, WUSTL apparently never notifies people of the decision date before the decisions actually come out.</p>

<p>Nah, I predict it will come this friday. Last year, my bro got accepted friday, and even four years ago, my sister got accepted the 11th of march, which was also a friday. I wouldn’t doubt if it came tomorrow.</p>

<p>^ Your date is off for four years ago. </p>

<p>2008: March 14th
2009: March 13th (the 11th was a Wednesday)</p>

<p>Either way, my guess will be either tomorrow (the 8th) or next week (the 15th). The past five years (at least) it’s been a friday. However, we could have said the same thing for ED decisions, and this years crop was released on a Tuesday or Wednesday (wasn’t paying that close attention).</p>

<p>Tl;dr: either tomorrow or next friday, but sometime in between is possible too.</p>

<p>I think they like to do it at the end of the day so they don’t have to answer irate phone calls (I don’t blame them).</p>

<p>Wait, tomorrow? If in the past decisions came out around the 11/12th, then I’d think next Friday is more likely - it’s not like they got less apps this year (unless they did, did they?).</p>

<p>last year it came out on the 9th</p>

<p>If they do release decisions tomorrow, I’m guessing we just check our normal WUSTL login account things? I’m starting to get excited/anxious about this!</p>

<p>oh wow, less than 24 hours then</p>

<p>But we can’t be sure that it will be tomorrow… Everyone who did ED expected the decision to be released on friday, but it ended up the following week…</p>

<p>I honestly don’t think I’ll be able to handle it if they don’t release decisions tomorrow. I’ve been counting down the hours since late January.</p>

<p>Does the financial aid award come out with the admissions decision if you are admitted?</p>

<p>Generally yes.^</p>

<p>At least, most of my schools do… (bad time to report I still have finaid stuff missing)</p>

<p>I’m literally checking the portal almost every hour. This wait is seriously too much. But I really do hope it comes out today!</p>

<p>if you look at the RD discussion forum, someone called the admissions office and was told that the pathway would be updated at 6ish. So thats 7pm ish eastern time.</p>

<p>I’m so nervous…</p>
