They did not. Though I'd suspect any day this week.

2 years ago, I heard on 7/16. Most acceptances came that day via email. Dings started going out via snail mail.

No idea actually. I didn't do the write-on. Just took a secondary journal instead.

spoke w/ them today. not expecting to make decisions until after the 10th. so if you want to be on their LR you should do the writing comp

How serious did they seem about it not being until after the 10th? do you think they were just trying to get you off their back

I asked if we should expect decisions before the 10th and they said "oh, no, probably after the 10th"

I wonder if that means ALL DECISIONS after the 10th.

So last year's earliest complete to accept was th 6/20 -> wed 7/10.

This year earliest complete is also 6/20 (friday). So if Columbia doesn't speed up (why do we think they would?) then THURSDAY 7/10 is the best bet.

Yes and who knows with this cycle. always a chance we don't see movement until next week.

edit: just spoke with admissions.. she said no decisions have been made yet and she doesn't expect any until next week.
