In!
Just got the email.

And for what's it worth, my status checker updated to 1/25 and then nothing happened until I received this email.

Does Northwestern ever send anything besides the initial acceptance email? I got mine a few weeks ago and haven't heard from them since.

Still nothing. It's a little annoying to see these December applicants getting accepted ahead of those of us who were complete in November.

received Hold Letter from Johann H. Lee, Assistant Dean of Admissions and Financial Aid.

Question:
How do I address my LOCI?
1) Dear Mr. Lee
2) Dear Assistant Dean Lee

Hell, I assumed Johann is a man's name (yo-hann). Can anyone confirm that?

Thanks

Sorry to bump this thread...

I am going to Chicago for work on Thursday and wanted to stop by Northwestern. I applied in mid November and went complete in mid-January (had an interview mid-December). I want to see the school and also show them how interested I am in Northwestern.

Has anyone else visited the school before hearing about a decision on their application? What is a good way to approach it?

Thanks!

Johann is a man, so don't address your LOCI to 'Ms. Lee:'

I can't offer advice about showing interest, but you should definitely call the admissions office and ask about the schedule for student-led tours. If the schedule doesn't work for you, they have a "self tour" pamphlet that guides you on your own walking tour through the buildings. I did it when I was there for my interview and really enjoyed wandering around.

In a while you'll get a portfolio containing a paper acceptance letter, nifty leather thing, brochure attempting to convince you to go to Northwestern, and instructions on claiming your Northwestern e-mail.

I've asked him about this before ... I think that something like 1/4 of all letters addressed to him are addressed to Ms. Lee.

The question is, does he even bother to read those letters? I had fun writing my LOCI... since it was addressed from a Lee to a Lee.
