There is no way that's true. On LSN last year there are people who
sent 1/27 and 1/25 who got in, and LSN is a sample skewed towards early applicants as it is.
Edit: And I found someone who sent 2/01.

Congrats! You have reinforced the hope for this sub-4.3 applicant. Now I might actually be disappointed with a WL/Ding.

Thanks!
I think that my softs really pushed me over the edge; my whole cycle has gone better than I anticipated. My numbers only made me a marginal candidate for CLS, and I got into U.Chicago, despite the small class size.
So if there's a lesson here, it's that softs can really make a difference!

Got back to my apt, opened mailbox. A notice! I had a package at the front desk!
Heart pounding, I went to go get it...
...it was a book for my roommate.
Went up to my apartment. Opened the door. In the dark, I could see a large, light-colored envelope on the coffee table. My heart rate spiked again...
...it was an admissions packet from GULC.
Guess there's nothing in DC today.

Sorry to revisit this- but is the consensus that the only people that got e-mails abroad today are the ones that ED'ed and already found out?

I've only heard of one case so I don't know. I didn't get one and I'm a little pissed about it. But I guess let's just wait and see.
Plus, I'm calling them tomorrow to find out. hahaha
