"Just got back from 2 hour meeting... Hold decisions on hold... Server has crashed..." - From Johann

IF I GET WAITLISTED I WILL RAGE

[bmurp]

Welp going to a 3 hour lab that I can't use a phone or laptop in... everyone pray that I don't have a breakdown over the next excruciating three hours.

[dony_tanza]

Johann has asked us to stop refreshing status checker hahaha

[skyhigh4760]

If he didn't tweet about decisions...we wouldn't be overloading the server...

On the one hand, we should be responsible adults and appreciate the transparency without burdening their server.

On the other hand... WHAT'S MY STATUS??? F5 F5 F5 F5

from his twitter "we have done admits and denies this cycle already. only one decision left: holds. we will be releasing our 1st group today." does that mean people who have not received acceptances or rejections at this point are all on hold?

For the first cycle of reviewed applicants, yes*. We don't know who is or is not in that group of applicants, though. It's weird that he used the word cycle, but in reality he probably meant something more like round.

*he did say a small batch of admits was being released today, as well.

The real enemy here is LSAC. Let's not lose sight of that.

[ggnobbq]

he just meant that NU has released both admit and deny decisions thus far this cycle, but haven't released any waitlists (until today). i'm sure there's still plenty more of all 3 to come

[dony_tanza]

Looks like he's calling it quits for an hour.

Let's dispel once and for all with this fiction that Johann doesn't know what he's doing. He knows exactly what he's doing.

Just got through. Still sitting at complete since late November.

Should I just be expecting a rejection at this point?

[gamerish]

Well here's to hoping I don't get an email from NU today...

What's your complete date in the DLDS?

[dony_tanza]

Now I'm afraid that if they somehow have analytics and know that I'm refreshing on repeat I'll be automatically rejected. I'm gonna stop for a bit

[bmurp]

Also still at complete since 11/17...

[msmizz85]

Just got through, still at complete, but theres no date. I'm anticipating a hold

[BirdLawExpert]

Just got through, still complete, but it looks like that doesn't mean anything re:being held since Johann said that the "hold decisions were on hold".

I'd agree. And I'd add this - Let's dispel once and for all with this fiction that Johann doesn't know what he's doing. He knows exactly what he's doing.

Ah, a whole new medium for my paranoia.

Just checked my complete date on DLDS for the first time. Despite submitting my interview in late November, I only went complete on 1/4. Northwestern, why?

Same thing happened to me and a few others. Honestly at this point I'd consider it a blessing given that most of the people who went complete back in November that are going to be accepted already have been.

+1

[dmurd]

Is being on hold the same thing as waitlisted? Or is it more like being deferred?
