So are we thinking 12/16 --> 1/12 means a decision this week?

[mochafury]

I'm still stuck on "Complete 12/8/9." Is this an abnormal development, and if so, how can I have it excised?

Nope... complete 11/13. They hit the complete 11/1-11/6ish people yesterday if I'm not mistaken. I'm guessing I will go UR later this week/early next week.

How does Chicago send out decisions?

Phonecalls for acceptances

Would you know how they reject people? I'm thinking that may be more relevant for me...

[liljerry]

does anyone think chicago has a secret counter on your app status page to see how many times you've checked status?

[maudlinstreet]

I'm also UR 1/12. COME OOOONN DECISION!

Great 1/11 and 1/12. What does it all mean?

Edit: I'm 1/12 now too

In the last acceptance/decision batch, did people's UR date change before they got a call?

They did. However, I have to say that it seems a TON of people updated to 1/12. Way too many to make calls to. I'm thinking this might just be a routine update.

Is there anyone with an UR date which didn't change?

Edit: Also, how soon before the decisions went out did the updates occur?

Well hopefully that doesn't mean anything.. I personally don't think the update = good news, at least not for everyone

I suppose, given how many people updated to 1/11 or 1/12, not every update is necessarily a good thing. So maybe they're just saving the best for last...

Edit: I too am at 11/25, if it's not clear.

In a completely NOT stalkerish and obsessed way, I went and checked the UChicago twitter feed. On 1/7, it said: "Snowed in and reading files. We expect to make more phone calls within the next week."

So it's not entirely outside the realm of possibility that acceptance calls would be made today. I also - once again, in a completely normal and not-obsessed way - went back through this thread to look at the last batch of acceptances. The status checker updates started being noticed around 12/1pm (JUST. LIKE. TODAY.), and then calls started coming around 3:00pm ET.

Interpret away!

don't give me false hope! my stats are entirely too low, but i went to 1/12 too...

Also updated to UR 1/12. Originally UR 12/16 or something like that.
