please give up tyia

Apparently my status checker has UMich syndrome. I have been UR 3/2, 3/3, and now 3/4. Anyone else?

Status Checker changed for the 3rd time today. UR 1/24, 2/3, 3/4... Maybe a decision soon? I submitted 3.5 months ago.

Me too. They must have a huge pile of decisions ready by now. Do they usually do acceptances on Friday then WL and rejects on monday?

Mine was 2/15 -> 2/25 -> 3/4

Complete 12/3.
UR 2/2 -> 2/11 -> 3/4

I have to assume I'm in the next batch of decisions. Hopefully tomorrow! Hopefully not next week.

Good luck everyone!

edit: unless they make acceptance calls next week....

Don't they usually update their twitter a day or two before doing calls?

I went under review again 3/4. Previous UR dates were 2/9, 2/25.

On past Fridays when U of C has called to inform applicants of acceptances, it seems that the day was always preceded by a twitter announcement on the Thursday before. No such tweet was posted yesterday.

This would mark the 4th Friday since the last batch of acceptances, and it's also been over 3 weeks since any movement whatsoever. For just about the slowest school, they appear to be getting worse, not better.
