so not to dredge up any unwanted LG flash backs but does:

Tues Complete --> Thurs Acceptance
Wed Complete --> Fri Acceptance

or is it

Thurs Acceptance --> Tues Complete
Fri Acceptance --> Wed Complete

Why would SMU make calls for acceptances if it says on their status checkers that they are unable to release decisions by phone? Seems contradictory doesn't it?

I suppose it's different if they call you. They can verify it's you (although I suppose SSNs would suffice) but they mainly they probably don't want a million calls/e-mails...

Looks like Dallas is about to get hammered by heavy thunderstorms. I'm in Oklahoma City - the same storm system is blanketing us with ice.

yes, the weather is miserable here although I'm sure the ice would make it suck even more.

the real question is, are you accepted on Thursday if and only if you were complete on Tuesday.

It's looking like nobody is getting accepted on Thursday.

too funny! the real smart play here is to shut down my computer and just go do something. wouldn't kill me to get some work done before the day is over..................

Can't one of you just get accepted so we can start figuring out the puzzle!! :D

from a selfish standpoint the question is:

if Tuesday complete then you are accepted on Thursday

Does anyone from 1/26 care to share what's on his/her status checker? I'm 1/27 and the Mailings, Fees, and Requirements headings are all blank. I'm pretty sure it's a reject (sorry to bring the bad news for 1/27).

I can't remember for sure, but I think they were blank before the status changes as well
