yeah i didn't write one either, I just hope we don't have to wait for the mail... fingers crossed though!


Good luck to everyone!

Yes - curious if anyone has Decision Made today with fees showing up.
Crossing fingers that the new look has eliminated our sneaky way of finding out before snail mail.

Got a date change. Application Complete 1/20 --> Date Change 3/9

This could still be good news - maybe the new SC removed our deposit seat indicator.

Do you mind PMing stats and when you went complete?

Mike Spivey leaked it. It's pretty much official. Notre Dame is tied at 22 with GW, Alabama and Iowa.

Notre Dame's employment stats look better than WUSTL's, why is it ranked lower?

Employment stats are only a small fraction of the things that go into determining the rankings

[Wingtip88]

Don't worry about the US News rankings. Like, at all. Jobs and debt is all that matters. Jobs and debt.

Do we know if the deposit amount indicators are gone for good?

Because Wash U is smart and plays the ranking game very well. Wash U has been throwing crazy money around to recruit top notch students for years. They've held very robust medians despite the decline in applications. Notre Dame has a great reputation in the legal community and consistently gets a top reputation score, so I doubt we will ever see it fall below its position last year (26). But to make the jump into Wash U territory, ND would probably have to increase its level of merit aid substantially.

Interesting. I'll be applying to both Notre Dame and WashU, along with Vanderbilt, I'll probably get a lot of money from Wash U and I hope ND also gives me a good amount, but if Vandy doesn't waitlist me they'll probably be my choice

Assuming you mean next year?

No

no idea, I still haven't heard anything yet... but in the past it seemed like it would take a day or two before an email comes through...

does anyone know if they tell you if you're rejected or waitlisted by email? or do we have to wait for the mail

I think WL/Ding is snail mail.

According to one admit, they still have deposit numbers after the SC layout changed.

did this person have "decision made" 3/9? If they were accepted before it would make sense for them to have the deposit numbers, I have them still for other colleges I was accepted too earlier after the layout change

if they have deposit numbers after they got decision made 3/9 then for the rest that doesn't it probably means WL/Ding
