Lack of sleep has my brain frazzled so my apologies for asking, but this is sarcastic, right?

Maybe if lots of people withdraw today and tomorrow, admissions will freak out and admit the rest of us on Friday.

Maybe? Hopefully?

I emailed them asking why I have not received a Decision Letter, when it is already 4/26, and it says 4/24 DLS. They responded saying they would email me before the 30th...Now I am thinking they are just waiting to WL everyone in one batch.

It's funny because I actually just thought about Halloween next year this morning, because I realized I won't be around my office's fun festitivies :P

have to agree. though for me personally I can't rule out a ding, what with my date still not changing.
can't wrap my head around them waiting so long to do the inevitable, and poorly, I might add.

Maybe they just have not gotten to you yet. They are probably waitlisting all the people that are splitters and reverse splitters, for they are definitely getting WL-ed, and might be summoned from the WL to fill the class whichever way the deposits go.

For the rest, they are still reviewing, since they are not sure if they should accept or ding the non-splitters. This seems to be the most reasonable explanation of what is happening, since they did not respond to my email with an acceptance letter but with a promise that I will hear before the 30th.

Yeah, I think that if all they had left was waitlist and reject the process might be a little faster cause I assume those would be easier to hand out. So they probably do have a few more they plan to admit before the 30th.

And not to hate on those with DLS and radio silence, but maybe it's good if you haven't gotten a DLS yet?? (This is a very biased theory btw)

Same stat range. Originally I had thought of it as not super reach - MyLSN gave me a yellow. Now it seems certain to be a ding, so I just wish they would get on with it.

I too, went out of my way today to look that up. Never heard it before
Most of the people i know who use this term are referring to three/four schools - University of North Carolina. Virginia, Or UC Berk/LA
I hear it said about 90% of the time with UNC though

Seriously? What are you waiting for?

Now there's a charge.
