Decision letter sent on 11/17!

Is that a bad thing!?

3.9/169, great softs. UR 11/11.

The date makes me nervous

[calvmpv]

If only he knew half of TLS is waiting for him to check your mailbox...

HAHAHAhahaha.

And I'm going home to check now. Every time I check the mailbox and find it empty I feel like I hit a new low.

[jrh1987]

Come onnnnn dulcatis' bf.

[bkhopeful]

my status just changed to "Decision Letter Sent" but my status date stayed at 11/17, which is when I went UR. thoughts on what this means? is the admissions office watching me compulsively refresh the status checker? is this a good thing?

TIME TRAVEL.

YES! exactly what i was hoping they'd use the time machine for:

NYU is time traveling now! How exciting.

it'd be exciting if they traveled back to 11/18 when i went UR and let me in!

[TLSNYC]

FWIW, no purple envelope here in suburban NJ.

He says nothing's there unless it couldnt fit in the mailbox and was logged as a package, nothing today...

Wahhh why is this taking so long???

NO i have the same sent date, as does an earlier poster. let's hope it's good news! even more hopeful, maybe they sent our letters on 12/3 with the others and we'll hear really soon...

Does Nyu have a mail department. Maybe the admissions office just passed them along to be mailed.

[obrienfa]

Purple is my favorite color, so I'm looking forward to this one particularly on an irrational 5yr old girl level. Is that wrong? If so, I don't want to be right... Mmmn hmmn.

I am right there with you

They dont use nyu mail serbices for non-admin stuff...

Yeah. . . it could be awhile for us 12/6ers then too. Ugh.

I live in NYC approx. 10 min away from the law school campus. Rushed home after work this afternoon to check the mailbox b/c my status updated to "decision letter sent" this afternoon. Nothing. Here's hoping for tomorrow...

I love NYU, but when it comes to purple...http://sports.espn.go.com/espn/page2/st ... ortCat=nba

Early Nov. or Oct. people without decision mailed should expect rejects or wait lists right?
Sorry to repeat.

I see you are bringing the pessimism from the Michigan thread right over to the NYU thread lol. How bout some optimism?

It looks that way, yes.

People got accepted throughout dec last year...there's no reason to assume that.

I don't think so at all. So far NYU's mainly been admitting auto-admits, EDers, or URMs. Most of the people either have high GPAs, high LSATs, or both. So I figure in a few days or so (hopefully), NYU will start admitting some of the more borderline applicants.

OPTIMISM!

i really hope i'm right

Certainly possible, although I just don't see why they would go in that order - it's not like the auto-admits are going to have decided by the time they send out acceptances to the borderline candidates.

They're probably protecting their medians/25/75 first. They're stocking up on high GPAs and LSATs so they have room to know how many and which borderline applicants they can accept.

They usually like to make their decisions for borderline candidates once they have a better feel for the applicant Pool as a whole. It's quite normal for borderline applicant to have to wait longer.

[dissonance1848]

NYU's admission's office I'm sure can estimate the relative number of auto-admits they give offers to will attend or go elsewhere, so of course they will extend offers to more borderline applicants, unless all of a sudden this year NYU beats out CLS for overlapping applicants, which I don't think is likely.

Gotcha. Sorry I'm just a little pessimistic. I'm ED and UR 10/20
