I can dig through the 2018 thread as well, but does anyone know about when they start pulling kids off the WL? Just because I'm moving with a SO, and was hoping to get things finalized early... Waitlists make that a hassle :|

Will include this in my post about whether they get money
Thanks much. They're little Q&A page says we will be asked to confirm if we want to remain on in May... would be nice to have a definite answer. I know my numbers are poor but... really hoping for a shot at U Chicago.

Um... excuse my ignorance, but what is a "Glass Menagerie Photo"?
As in the second item in the requirements box on the status checker page...

I had the same thought. This felt like the worst of my interviews. Apparently it didn't matter.

Congrats to all admits!

Im still trying to figure out he UR string, can someone help?

I did interview right before Christmas, UR status changed to 12/18 after interview, and today it changed again. So am I UR 3 or 4? Is there a UR 5?

Thanks all

Assuming your interview was only a couple days before the 12/18 UR date, then you are at UR3. Some people seem to have had UR5s but I'm not sure what that means!

Wahrheit wrote:Worry less about your UR status and more about when you applied, because that tends to be the determining factor. The logic is very, very roughly like this:

1) Did you apply in X month
2) Did you interview
3) Did you not massively screw up

If so, you might be admitted! It seems like most interviewees are admitted but there are no stats on this. If you did not get an interview, the odds are not in your favor.

1.)November
2.)Yes
3.) I did not screw up

When do I hear back
