I'd assume that is the case. They'd know how many spots they have to work with at that time.

I sort of hope this IS the case. It seems like they'd be more likely to admit some folks (as opposed to WL'ing them) AFTER the deposit deadline, when they may have some slots to fill.

I called yesterday and asked when they expected to give decisions to people currently on hold and the answer was that May 1st would be the day.

has anyone on the $ waitlist heard anything?

this is a good point. I wonder if they plan on letting all of us know. Northwestern has been my top choice since the beginning, but their lack of communication and the constant missing of self-imposed deadlines is starting to cause my patience to wear thin. Then again, none of it will matter if I am accepted come May 1st - would be happy as a clam!

Not yet. Hoping for word this week though.

may 1?! ugh.

i bet a lot of us will be waitlisted. just to keep prolonging the rejection.

i would hope not. they were already pulling people from the waitlist in may last year. maybe there won't be a waitlist at all this year and we'll all get definitive decisions may 1.

[Snoopy1216]

Would they really pull people from the waitlist now when they havent given everyone their initial decision yet? Me... (applied late)

Radio silence.

I e-mailed them yesterday trying to get an ETA, but didn't hear back.

i have two retakes and both of them were shittier than yours. wtf. i am overcome with the sense my acceptance was in error.

as much as i complain, i'm pretty happy to be on hold given my crappy PS and softs.

[MirandaHobbes]

nancybotwin asked about decisions for hold applicants on twitter. the reply: @NBotwin10 Hello! You should most likely hear something in the next two to three weeks. Thanks for your patience!

[Shellbelle]

well guess we have to put down deposits elsewhere to be safe then. I was really hoping an IN on the 1st would save me. eh atleast we know.

[Holly Golightly]

I'm also blown away that MirandaHobbes is on hold. How the eff did I get in?

[Snoopy1216]

GPA>75%, LSAT <25%, applied reaaallly late, so I really don't think it's going to pan out well. Maybe a rejection, maybe another waitlist?

[ilovelamp18]

Has anyone who got the "all funds are currently allocated" email seen any movement post-scholarship deadline???
