i've had a lot of dreams about Columbia, where I am looking for housing, and am walking around the campus. but was my alma mater and have a hell's shot of getting in for law school, so must be wishful thinking.

i have had dreams about NU, but where a rep came to reject my application personally. haha. sigh.

I want to do a Northwestern love song or something--"I think of you every morning/dream of you every night..."

Having the same thing here--I will be devastated if I don't get in.

I dreamed I was accepted to NU and couldn't stop screaming. I was trying to decide whether to go there or Chicago (which I'm not evcen applying to) but couldn't concentrate because I was screaming so loud.

I distinctly remember thinking that I sounded a lot like John Lennon singing Twist and Shout. Weird.

[edit: was referring to harshness of tweeting a pile of rejections]
Yeah, that was harsh. But for the AdComms, that's the hardest part, so it's probably really exciting to get the culling work done. Imagine: your job is to crush thousands of dreams every year. You'd have to find something to get excited about.

lol yeah. I guess I DO spend too much time on TLS...in my dream, my mind made SURE to see the "Congratulations from Northwestern Law" in the header of the email that I was reading. so sad.

Yes, you'll get the Congrats email in which it says to go to the status checker for your official acceptance letter. Good luck everyone :D
