Any word on when held decisions usually come out?

Also I wrote an email but it was more to update my application

Was thinking of getting one in before their date of February 28, but was trying to decide on a strategic time to do it haha.

In the email I got they said they would get back to us by February 28th. But I think I've seen some people with an earlier date (January 30th). Not sure if there is difference between those 2 groups.

It might be that ED applicants will hear by Jan 30th

I applied ED and the date in my email was Jan 30th.

Even though they have these dates they are trying to get back to us by, when are decisions usually sent out? Close to the January 30th date or can it be earlier?

I keep hopefully checking the ASW site, but I think the idea is they want to see more of the applicant pool- aka the December apps.

Thx for the answer. That was my idea as well but still hoping for an earlier answer!

And ya I'm checking the asw site often to say the least lol

Held as well with a decision date of "no later than February 27."

For others held- do we think this is a good time to send an LOCI or no? Assuming no major accomplishments at work/ school. I can see both sides being beneficial/ harmful, but it probably doesn't matter too much either way?

I am wondering the same. I hesitate to because of the sentence from the email that said, "No additional information is necessary..." etc. Maybe I'm reading too much into it, though.

I would say that it would be a GREAT time to update your application with something new, whether more grades, a better score, work experience etc.

If nothing new is going on then idk
