Couldn't take it anymore, so I called and asked if a decision had been mailed yet...
talked to a VERY nice lady, who told me that it hadn't been mailed yet, but would be soon, and I could expect it possibly early next week

On the one hand I'm scared/nervous/worried.. on the other hand I at least have an idea when my (waitlist/rejection from second batch) will be arriving

!! they're probably sealing the envelopes of our fate right now. argh.

I like the optimism. I looked on LSN, and it seemed like there were several waves of acceptance letters in December last year. Keepin' the hope alive.

I have such hopeless anxiety, that I have talked myself into the idea that the lady at the front desk lied to me because she didn't want to be bothered, and a mailing is on its way.

at least you were brave enough to go get a comment from them to twist around in your head. i'm just creeping past their offices on my way home.

You should totally drop in unannounced.

I heard that if you bring them cookies, it will expedite the process.

Sounds like a plan.

For the ED'ers who have been accepted and also applied to Michigan but haven't heard from Mich yet:

Does your Michigan status checker say withdrawn?

this is why i have avoided calling. i have been trying to hold onto the last glimmers of hope. sad, but thanks for doing the dirty work drew. time to go commiserate in the bitter pessimism thread i suppose.

Looks like last year on LSN, rejections didn't start coming steadily (though still in between a lot of acceptances) till 1/15... so a decision mailed around now is probably a good sign!

...which is also why I've avoided calling. Because it'd be really embarrassing to be laughed at by someone random over the phone about how there's no chance in hell that I'm getting a decision anytime soon, and to know what that really means.

How long does it take for people to get a decision from nyu after receiving the notice of completion email? I got my email 12/8, so I'm hoping for a decision soon. Are rejections via email or letter? Does anyone know?

You were complete two days ago, and you expect a decision soon? Unless you're ED, I doubt it (but I understand your desire for efficiency).

I went about a month between completion and decision.

by some conjecture and lsn, it looks like the first wave of RDs may be done and the rest of the decisions will be for us ED folk. since you just went complete, i would have to say that you are not in the first wave of RDs and won't be hearing until the new year.

Where is my decision. So sad I want in too.

+1

You give me hope!

Isn't that what TLS is for?
Not to worry, according to LSN, last year's acceptances for Nov. applicants came all the way through Xmas, and some even after...

Actually, I applied 10/17. But went complete 11/03, too. I actually think I'm going to quit TLS until finals are over. This is taking a nasty toll on my GPA.

+1. but camping out by my mailbox everyday waiting for my purple envelope only to be spat on by the mailman everyday is making finals similarly impossible to focus on.
