Re: Northwestern 2011 Applicants
I submitted earlier than you did and my status hasn't changed since either. If they stick to their promise of having us an answer within 8 weeks of December 1st, we will hear within the next couple of weeks (hopefully this is the case). They've sent out a bunch of rejections already, so just be glad you didn't get THAT e-mail!florencezx wrote:sorry, sent in on the 24th, went complete on the 29th November, 2010. what's going on???florencezx wrote:Hi guys, my application went complete on November 25th and status hasn't been changed since then.

Complete at the end of October. Have been experiencing a recurring nightmare of getting waitlisted(/denied) on 1/31.
**And by 1/31 I meant 1/26.

over the weekend i had a dream where a NU admission staff member personally showed up to my office at work, then proceeded to ask me why i was "pretending", rejected my application, and walked out.
I had no idea what he meant by pretending during my dream or now in reality.

If you want to purchase me a plane ticket to Puerto Rico this Friday, I'd be willing to check your email and fly out to give you any news.

Re: Northwestern 2011 Applicants
I'd need to see a pic first. lol just playing I'm actually going for a wedding and since I'm the best man I'm going to be super busy. We hitting Miami on Friday for the Bachelors party which is lot more fun when you don't have to plan it. Then flying to PR I have to coordinate the families and I'm helping out with a lot of the planning. So I'll actually be busy not just relaxing. I just don't think I can survive 11 days without checking my statuses.dcwumpus wrote:If you want to purchase me a plane ticket to Puerto Rico this Friday, I'd be willing to check your email and fly out to give you any news.

Re: Northwestern 2011 Applicants
went complete 1/10/11, original application included CPE and a PM Essay. Is it appropriate at this point to send a Why NU essay via email to attach to the application?

Re: Northwestern 2011 Applicants
I went complete months ago and just submitted a Why NU essay last night, if that helps. I figured why the hell not, I haven't heard anything from them yet anyway. That and I have the slimmest of chances of getting in, so I might as well do everything I can.servo wrote:went complete 1/10/11, original application included CPE and a PM Essay.

Re: Northwestern 2011 Applicants
yeah it was hard but I am getting obsessive, i thought that taking a break from it couldn't help but now I think I'm addicted to checking at least once a day. I think i knew i had a problem when I was checking at midnight, at a red light. Maybe the trip will be like withdrawal?krad wrote:Glad I could helpunc0mm0n1 wrote:I know I could check but I kind of gave him my word I wouldn't, actually I said wouldn't check on the computer.....hmmm my mtouch4g technically isn't a computer!

I totally missed the part in your OP about vowing not to check. I don't think I could vow that unless my life depended on it!
Seriously? What are you waiting for?
