yeah i was hoping and praying they do decisions in batches but someone told me that he/she had a waitlist when someone else in his/her batch was an acceptance...
Yeah, that was me.

DR 2/17. Nervous.

Without re-reading the topic, could someone please tell me:

1. Are the decisions batched?

2. Are all decisions snail-mailed or are some emailed?

3. Are there any tricks to find out if you've been admitted?

Confirmation that the decisions are NOT batched. DR 2/12, dinged today via snail mail. 163/3.84, Non-URM, undergrad was in VT and I'm from NY, so i don't even have geographical diversity to offer them. Oh well.

Oh, and do they send them out right away or do they come in postmarked several days after DR?

OMG I'm so depressed. I have basically the same stats as you and from the same state. Now I am super depressed and am doubting I will get in. This is torture.
I'm sorry nyskidude... :-/

How were your softs and your PS?

Does state of residency play a role in BC's decisions?

Lol, probably not, but when you feel that everything is stacked against you, that just feels like another inch of wall in my way, haha...

I'm not really sure... People said my PS was pretty good, and I have held leadership positions in 2 clubs and 1 volunteer organization. I was good enough to get into GW, so I guess I thought most of the rest of the top 20 would have been a cakewalk. Guess not lol :?:

Thanks for the answers.

Also, is this correct: large envelopes for acceptances, small for everything else?

off topic, but: Has there been a chance to RSVP for the ASW in march yet? I got the email, but it didn't say how to reserve a spot, and no one at the school has returned my email yet. Thoughts?

CRM please keep us posted! BC usually does decisions in 6 or more weeks from complete date and yours took less than a month. So I'm wondering what this means.

No totals filled in under the deposits section.

Best of luck to everyone else who went DR!
