I had initial complete after you (1/2x) and had additional completes 2/14, 2/27 and 2/28. Still have yet change to "decision rendered".
It does seem that others have moved to decision rendered after just 2-3 completes.
Best of luck to both of you.

Just reposting for the other applicants who went complete on 1/18. It said decision rendered on 2/23 and I got my acceptance email on the same day.

Have you updated anytime before this or did you just go straight to decision made?

I was told by Melissa in the admissions office that all scholarship information is included in the admissions packet and that they do not negotiate or match competing offers.

+2 Decision made after 1 update after initial complete....do we think they are still doing accept emails like a couple weeks ago or do we have to wait for next week.

What's the standard amount of time people have waited to receive snail mail decisions? I had DR on 3/1 and as of last night there was no letter at my house. Should I email them? Or has it been taking longer? Thanks!

To clarify: I am like mcdeeremitch... I had 1 update after my initial complete...
And I hope so! My school's Spring Break is this upcoming week, so it would suck to have to wait until the week after to find out if I got in or not!

On the status checker, it says do not contact them until 2 weeks have passed... But if you're really interested, I was call them just to see when it was mailed out.
