Grats! So the email just said to check your status checker? It didn't say you were in?
Yup! Here's the text from the email:

Anyone know how financial/merit aid works at NU? I never did deep research since I wasn't sure I had enough WE to get in.

Let's hope not. I'm trying to keep a good energy. Maybe they are working overtime these last days of the month? I'm hoping we will get a tweet when it's a wrap for today

Edit: sorry if I seem too cheerful for the thread. Just trying to keep my spirit up

Pretty sure that's a wrap for the day.

I wonder if it's overkill to send another LOCI if I was ED>Held, since that was over a month ago. Although sounds like none of us have heard anything so I guess I can't take it personally.

Does anyone know how long it took to be able to see letter after status checker tells you it's available w/in 24 hours? I have been trying for an hour now :/

ETA: I have received the email telling me it's ready.

Johann's tweet said it takes at least an hour. Let us know please.

ETA:
Step Two: The decisions are then transferred to our Decision Letter Delivery system. Depending on the size of the batch, this step can take at least ONE HOUR to clear.

Well he said about an hour ago that he's "committed to send decisions today". It can't be all that there is (hopefully)

Two hours ago and then decisions came... I am guessing Friday if we are lucky, next week is more likely

Wow, it just got real!!! Congratulations. Do you mind posting your stats? (I am sure you posted earlier but going through 95 pages will take forever). I hope my decision comes today

It's my #1, but it does somewhat depend on $. I really, REALLY want to go there - I fell in love on my visit and it's close to home. BUT, paying sticker ANYWHERE seems completely terrifying.

I hear you. And you have great #s so I'm sure they will take care of you. I really hope I'll hear by Friday :cry:

So, only one AJD decision on here today? Hopefully, there are more coming and it isn't bad news the rest of us haven't heard....

I really want this even if it isn't likely.

I'm right there with you. I assume they rolled out more AJD decisions just for the TLS crowd, unfortunately. :cry:

Yeah her numbers look like auto admit, especially for AJD since they tend me to be lower standards, so I don't think it's bad news for those of us who heard nothing :). Any other AJDs who did not interview?

i always check these forums but never actually post anything -

just checked and accepted to northwestern! i had pretty weak stats and definitely not a URM or whatever so i'm shocked at how this happened, hopefully not a mixup in the admissions office or anything :p

congrats to everyone else!

Seriously? What are you waiting for?

Now there's a charge.
