Yep. Status checker hasn't budged since 5/17. I feel like our apps have been printed out and stored in a box inside some dusty, UChi attic.

Aw snap! Congrats to the people who got in. Those who got the call, are you still deciding between other schools (or even staying where you're at) or is Chicago where you'll be this Fall?

I decided against Michigan in favor of my current school, but now...more tough decisions.

^^ It is a small transfer class. 25 or so came in last year. Even supposing a yield of just, say, 40%, that means 62 admits, and a fair number were already admitted in early decision.

You know you've always wanted to be at a t5 ;-)

By the way, I'm happy to see people getting in were roundabout the top 10%. I was worried my ED acceptance would be rescinded because I dropped from tippy top of the class first semester to around top 15%. Hopefully already being admitted gives me a little leeway to be top 15 instead of top 10.
