new tweet this morning: Wondering when to expect a decision? We have a 6-8 week time frame that begins after Dec 1.

Yeah, this kinda makes me wonder if they're reading this.... haha.

That should mean that a lot of decisions are going to be rolling out soon, if they choose to stick to the 6-8 week time frame.

So it's been seven weeks and two days.

my god people. 6-8 weeks are an estimate. at least give them until the end of the 1st week of February.

God, I hope so.

I would bet good money that they are reading this... I think this is twice that they have tweeted in coorelation to posts on this thread. I know that coorelation does not = causation but c'mon

If they thought it was going to be longer than the eight weeks they had originally forecasted, wouldn't that tweet have been the perfect time to say so?

6-8 business weeks. which excludes the 2-3 week winter break NU had.

Better hope there are some female adcomms who can appreciate Sex and the City and all of it's sluttiness!

Come to think of it, I complained yesterday about my status not being complete, and it changed today. Haha.


Hi, Northwestern. I really, really, really want want to go to you. <3

[mayosmith]

As if to throw us off the scent, they now tweet a thing about an article in Forbes. Clever!

we're not buying it northwestern. we know you're here, watching us. pick me!

[CyLaw]

I think at this point Northwestern is just toying with us by updating twitter. The admissions office is playing a game of "Who can cause the most TLS posts with one tweet?"

Quoted as it is becoming apparent that Northwestern is following us.

Hi, Northwestern. I love Chicago (The city, not that other crappy school)!

[Kretzy]

REALLY sorry if something like this has already been answered, but I couldn't find it.

My complete date is 10.26, but it just changed to complete a couple of days ago (they were waiting on my interview write up, from December 2nd, which JUST got there...)

Does this mean that I am in the "complete before December 1" batch, and should hear by the end of this month?

Thanks a bunch!

My application status now says this:

"Your application was received on 10/26/2009 and is complete as of 1/18/2010."

I used to have a much longer message about the 8 week thing, but now it is just this. Does anyone else have something similar/know what it means?

Mine changed, without any apparent reason, from 11/19 to 12/18 to 01/14. My interview materials (and everything else) were in NU's possession by the original complete date. I have no idea why my complete date changed twice.

[NancyBotwin]

Sigh, nothing today either?

[dakatz]

Had a great interview today with an off-campus alum in my home state. We chatted about pretty much everything for close to an hour and I feel like it went really well. My numbers are around the 25th percentiles at Northwestern, so I'm borderline at best. Perhaps this interview will help me out a bit.

[mayosmith]

Just some tweet about Conan.

[Rawlsian]

Today I went from "received" to "all application materials have been received. Your application is being held until after you complete your interview."

Or something roughly like that.

[roundabout]

I applied 12/28 and am still showing up as "in process," not complete, even though it says it should only take about 2 weeks to go complete. Did it take anyone else that long? (I'm a joint JD/LLM applicant, if that makes any difference.)

I applied two days before you, same status. It says allow up to 4 weeks for paper version to arrive. I plan on emailing next Monday if I don't get a status change.

Word. I applied on the 26th and am still in process. I couldn't take it and called yesterday- I said I'd been waiting since then, and they said not to worry yet.

Mine finally changed today, so I wouldn't be surprised if others started changing soon!
