<p>Deferred…but got into upenn wharton. So, I win (uchicago loses)!</p>
<p>do you guys think this is a courtesy deferral? what are our chances in the RD pool? how many EA applicants have been accepted RD?</p>
<p>Ughhh. Rejected UPenn Seas, Deferred UChicago.</p>
<p>Life sucks</p>
<p>deferred…hey grouptheory, how do you know that it was because of an incomplete application?</p>
<p>anyway…i fail at life :-(</p>
<p>*** Deferred!!! You’ve got to be kidding…right?</p>
<p>also pertinent question…how many EA applicants have been rejected? I havent seen any thus far, and if thats the case, then I think EA deferral is just a courtesy rejection.</p>
<p>deferred 
ouch. better than rejection i suppose</p>
<p>briguy,</p>
<p>The letter said:</p>
<p>Thank you for your interest in the University of Chicago. Your application for admission remains incomplete at this time. We are eager to review your file, and will defer your application to the Regular Notification pool. We encourage you to complete your application by January 2, 2010.</p>
<p>If you have any questions, feel free to contact [insert Counselor].</p>
<p>look at this guys
we were all the people who were freaking out because we didn’t have a decision
this is an obvious trend
i feel bad for the next batch who are going to be rejected (most probably)
and i know that’s mean and negative of me but seriously, i’m really mad about this
you can’t just have a batch of acceptances
then a batch of deferrals
and a batch of denials</p>
<p>oh ok thanks group theory. now i know i got deferred cuz…im not qualified enough</p>
<p>@briguy - don’t sweat it, everyone on this board isn’t i guess. ughh…</p>
<p>doniyasoni, yes this trend does seem cruel</p>
<p>deferred as well…i guess better than rejection…
what % of EA deferred applicants get accepted in the RD pool?</p>
<p>katydone, i can’t believe that they would do this to us… first making us wait an extra few hours then deferral?</p>
<p>totally agree. there IS a trend. those AOs are notorious for not telling the truth. Even I am admitted in the RD round I am sure not to attend this school. well. life has to go on after all! and tomorrow is another day!!!</p>
<p>ugh i know seriously. so i guess the whole time zone thing was a sham</p>
<p>sorry everyone. i sympathize with you all</p>
<p>This whole process was pretty unprofessional on their part</p>
<p>Deferred after waiting 3 hours.</p>
<p>I didn’t like how I was given false hope when they release their decision in batches.</p>
<p>mr sudden i feel your pain
boddah1 I agree. Seriously, its just not a cool way to do decision letters.</p>
