Ugh so I even though I submitted in Nov., my app was complete on 1/27 according to DLDS. So 10 weeks from then could be April 6th? Don't they have to tell you something before the seat deposits are due? Sorry if that's dumb question...

I'm in the same boat, and I'm inclined to think it's a clerical error. I interviewed the first week of December and called to verify my completed file the following week, but DLDS says I went complete mid-January.

I'm curious about this as well since I completed my interview in early December and am showing complete on the DLDS in mid January. But I'm inclined to agree with BirdLaw (and not just because they know so much about the law and various other lawyerings :P ) that it's either an error or just an arbitrary date due to some automatic update or something. Regardless, they'll give everyone a decision one way or another before the deposit deadline.

That being said, today being ten weeks from December 1st had me all hyped that today would be a big day for decisions but it looks like it's only a big day for pastries and packet signing.

Makes me smile every time I see it so THANKS! Also, I'm currently marathoning Seinfeld to distract myself from all the waiting. It's not working but it is making it more fun.

I think it means physical letters are going out to people who have already been notified. I wish NU would honor that 8-10 week range like Duke honors their PT 10day range.

+1 Pretty sure it's this. The photo with the tweet shows a bunch of priority mail packets for those already admitted.

I feel like I've already been held for two months, but it looks like this is just the beginning. God speed, ladies and gents :(
