To anyone else who has had this issue: do you know if they put your application on hold until the materials are received, or, do they continue with the decision making process?
At least for me, this process is taking FOREVER and my acceptance was not contingent on a decision. I submitted the residency application mid-Nov and was accepted shortly after. I called the residency office last week and they are STILL processing and said it could be awhile...
I think the email I got basically said that unless being a resident was going to make a difference (i.e., you'd be WL/dinged as a nonresident but admitted as a resident)
and it wasn't clear that your app for residency would ultimately be approved, it has no impact on the timing of your decision.
I submitted my residency app mid-October, was admitted 11/4 with a handwritten note from Dean Z about how they'd love to get me back to MI, and then have still heard nothing from residency. (I called sometime in the fall to confirm it hadn't gotten lost in the mail because they don't send you any sort of acknowledgement that they've received it...)
