question for fellow EDers who were held: does your status checker still reflect the date you got the first decision letter? mine is still stuck on 12/19 and says decision letter available in 24 hours. just want to make sure I didn't mess up when filling out the form to be considered with RD.

what's up with these decision letter available in 24 hours? Why not just directly send decision letters? :mrgreen:

If we all refresh en masse we can crash the system. It's happened before.

Ha, who knows. I did read that Dean Z (Michigan) said they gave a certificate and t-shirt to someone who checked over 300 times last year.

nothing for me. He said they update the letter delivery system and email us. There should be no change to the status checker for us.

she said she wanted to find that person in order to do so, but implied that she didn't actually know who it was.

Is it okay to ask that people who are updating about decisions will add which program they applied to? (Reg/ED/AJD)

Thanks a bunch :D

It's definitely trackable several ways (IP, Login Info, cookies, etc.)

I didn't say it wasn't trackable (though how would NU go about tracking people by IP, and their cookies certainly aren't anything invasive. They also don't use anything other than basic Google Analytics for tracking so they would be doing this from server logs which are really cumbersome and they're clearly not all that tech savvy) just that Michigan hadn't actually tracked them.

edit by "tracking people by IP" I mean how would NU go about correlating IP to real person? by login-name? again that's incredibly cumbersome.
