Congrats everyone! I'm happy for you guys. Just wondering, did everyone who got in write the optional Why Illinois essay?

I'm sure not everyone that got in wrote it, but, as always, it couldn't hurt. I did write it though.

I got in ED some weeks ago and did write it. I would do it, if you really want to attend. It's only 200 words and it couldn't hurt.

Dinged at Illinois. I'm actually surprised I didn't even get waitlisted.

Also, somewhat upsetting as I have a 4.0, 166...Got into Iowa the other day which is nice, but still hoping this isn't indicative of a bad cycle. Also hoping I can get some scholarship at a decent school (something similar to Iowa).

Regardless, rejection never feels good. Good luck to everyone else.

I cant seem to get an answer from OSU...so you know what that means.

[chrisbru]

For those of you who are up for a decision next Friday, does your status checker say Under Review yet? I went complete 11/15 although it now says 11/19, and mine doesn't say UR. I really hope I'm in the next batch tho!

Mine says File Complete - Under Review 12/10

I just want some love.

My wife is applying to Illinois as her top school...if she gets in or gets her govt job in Chicago I will have to follow...and that would not be a bad decision to have to make. I wont, however, have that chance because I dont have a snowball's chance in hell of getting accepted.

I'll cya at ASW

Congrats everyone!

I was curious. How long does it take from when your status goes from "Complete--Ready for Review" to actually being under review?

Dean Pless has a good timeline in his thread. There will be a decision on those who were "Complete" by 11/19 next Friday. And then the next group will be Jan 7th I do believe.

Thanks! I finally went complete today after being LSAC complete for the past few weeks! I guess, I have a fair bit of time left to wait. At least Christmas will be a nice distraction!
