I got in weeks ago with last name starting with an M. The alphabetical theory is incorrect.

The alphabetical theory only applies to the call order on given day. For example, people with last names ending in A and B got called before me and my last name ends in an H. Its not for the overall admissions process.

This is stupid to even note then if it doesnt apply "for the overall admissions process".

I didnt get a phone call. Email only.

So, its best not to try to read into more things than necessary.

Has anyone had their status change yo decision rendered and received an acceptance notification a couple days later?

From what I gather, it seems like the called people the same day their status checker changed if they were accepted.

Its pretty immediate.

You get an email or a phone call the same day.

There was a one-day lag for Penn, but I suppose they're the exception to the rule.

I got a call Dec 1 telling me I had been admitted. My status checker hasn't changed, I haven't received my admissions packet, and I haven't received an email. I spoke with the admissions and they are resending the packet. Stuff happens I guess.

LOL, I had interpreted that as a general "how long does it take status checkers to switch" question. The last thing I'm trying to do is pull a masterthearts.

Carry on, everyone (and good luck!)

Shucks.

I am kind of nervous now. No email or phone call yesterday even though my status checker changed.

I hate to say this but I considered myself a lock for this school.

I'm sitting at 11/29 with a message at the top that says I'm complete, but a blank status. Anybody else in that situation?

Yeah, I'm the same as you. Complete since 11/23 nothing for decision but complete at the top.

My status checker changed this morning but no e-mail or phone call. I guess that means I'm waitlisted or denied? I really thought that I would make it in...

Just got the phone call. First acceptance of the season after ding from UVA. This was essentially my safety, but it is comforting to have the security now.

Still no phone call. Hmmm.

GMU is waiting until after June 15 to start pulling people from the waitlist...what the heck, that is an insanely long time. I sent in my request to be on the waitlist, but I'll probably end up withdrawing in February or March *sigh*

Seriously? What are you waiting for?

Now there's a charge.
