I think so, yes, but it is not assumed that i) if you went UR2 at 12/5 you will hear back in the next wave; ii) if you were UR2 prior to that you will or will not hear back in the next wave; or iii) if you have not gone UR2 you will not hear back in the next wave.

I'm KJD, above both 75ths, and have been UR1 since early October. Still in "wait and see" mode.

The earliest rejection on lsn last year was 2/1. The previous year it was 1/21. We can make some assumptions. side note: I really wish people were more diligent in maintaining their lsn profiles!

The fact that there are so many people above 75ths and at medians that seem to have not heard back yet brings me hope.

I think I started to realize that there's no pattern with this thing. You just can't figure it out. No point of reading the tea leaves. The first two waves were hard on me, especially considering how much I want to stay in New York, but at this point I'm just going to wait patiently without thinking too much.

You probably could NYC is scary expensive as is though so it could be a little risky if you've been accepted elsewhere.

I think as long as your materials are in by a certain date? I applied early October. Who knows though!

I think staying busy helps a lot. When I'm not busy I turn into a neurotic, anxious applicant who keeps refreshing status checkers all fucking day. But when I get busy I'm more at peace w the fact that it's somewhat random and we'll know when we know. So there's my 2 cents. And I feel the same way you do, in terms of wanting to stay where you're from, with Cali schools, and their deafening silence lol.. But it is what it is. Good luck!

That's 100% true. Still doesn't help from all the dreams/nightmares I have about schools. Damn you subconscious!!

Me! Got the letter but haven't gotten a packet of materials.
Wasn't sure if the packets of materials had gone out yet. Just received the letter so far. If anyone has gotten the packet, when did you receive it?
hmm I received an email and a call, but no physical letter
still no packet as well...

Guys, I found out yesterday that I'm actually eligible to apply for AnBryce and I always thought that I wasn't. I'm going to write the essay this week but the essay prompt exactly describes my PS so I'm gonna have to be creative.

Can you apply for AnBryce after you've already been accepted? (unless I'm remembering wrong and you weren't one of the DLS peeps from last week's wave :wink:) I always thought the scholarship essays had to be submitted at the same time as your app

Yup, I emailed them and they said it was ok, and they sent me the documents to sign. (You remember right! :P )

Hasn't it happened between 9:30-10:30 the last few waves? Idk; I know they call people, so it seems like they'd want to get an early start.

Seriously? What are you waiting for?

Now there's a charge.
