So, I'm assuming we might get some decisions this fine Friday from the people whose status dates updated earlier this week. I, sadly, am not one of those people, but I'd rather wait another month for an acceptance than be waitlisted today. Good luck everyone!

Forgive my ignorance but how long did it take to receive an application confirmation? I have submitted over 20 applications and NU is the only school that hasn't sent me anything.

I posted it before, and as someone with a 1/8 update, I'll readily post it again:

I suspect there will be a constant trickle of decisions every Friday from here on out, like last year. As an ED-er deferred to RD, I just hope to get reviewed/accepted in that Jan. time frame indicated in the decision letter, though am I splitter :(. I already live in Chicago with my fiance, I would love to be able to start planning for next year sooner than later...
It's Friday...the day we've all been waiting for since Thursday.

Someone get in today, please. This thread really fell flat after some optimism this morning.

Do they even peek at your application before the interview? How long after the interview does the wait continue?

They might, but assume that they don't. I can't imagine off-campus interviewers see anything at all beforehand.

I have an on campus interview scheduled for first week of Feb, so wondering if I should even bother looking at status checker until then considering I'm half losing my mind checking all the others

During my on-campus interview, I was told they do not review applications until they are complete.

There's no point. Just relax and prep for the interview.

Now that my interview's out of the way, the waiting game begins.

Not terribly anxious, to be honest. Just interested to see what could happen.

Good attitude to take. Try to hang on to that. Admissions committees are trolling hard this cycle with their positively glacial pace.

Nothing is for sure but, Johann has been tweeting much less this cycle, and additionally decisions were usually posted late in the day (remember he's in CT). So still some optimism left for some decisions today!

Least I'm really hoping for it.

My status updated to today. Originally went complete about a month ago. Really, really want to get into Northwestern, their alums are great and I've heard nothing but good things about the school.
