As for WL being better than a rejection. I rather a rejection so I can fully move on than to be dragged through this same state until late August, to no avail.

Nah, brah, it is a game. It's Game of Thrones... and we're sellswords. I'm sworn to House Cornell and am pretty damn excited, but screw it, I'm a sellsword, so Northwestern by the Lake can buy me off.

Decisions on Friday didn't roll out until around 5 PM so we'll see. That tweet wasn't even until 4:51.

Still considering elsewhere, but definitely considering NU more than most. I'm deposited at another T14 with some $ and riding a few T6 waitlists, as unlikely as those would be to come through. The longer it goes the more comfortable I get at my current deposited slot, but who knows what will happen.
