Not it.
Just called... they said not to expect anything this week, but decisions will be sent out by the 14th because they want the transfers to be able to participate in OCI starting the 15th.
They also said no later than this week a few days ago.... :evil: :evil: :evil: :evil:

I hope that doesn't mean that the bid deadline of the 15th would be enforced against transfers that aren't even admitted until the day before.

Edit: Thanks for calling, though!
Ooh I didn't think to ask about that! The woman I spoke to (Megan) made it sound like for transfers the 15th commenced the bidding process... so hopefully that means the 15th is not the transfer deadline?

To follow up on the bidding point, after further investigation it appears their bidding may OPEN on the 15th and continue until the 25th.

:cry:

Maybe the office meant the entirety of decisions, including all dings, will be out by next Thursday? Since we know they do admits first, it's still possible admits come out tomorrow right? Please. Or was the quote from the admissions office directed towards admits?

Sounds like she said tomorrow may be possible, but unlikely.

On the bright side, for the fortunate among us, the wait will make the acceptance call even more exciting to receive.

Yeah it's a very strangely late start. Anybody else get in? Admits would have to at least extend to tomorrow I think.

Collective anxiety levels had dropped temporarily when we all were settled on tomorrow or next week. Good to know we can resume normal anticipation!

But Congratulations!

Seriously? What are you waiting for?

Now there's a charge.
Just kidding ... it's still FREE!
