Northwestern Class of 2029 Official RD Thread

just a random question-- wanted to get some opinions:

my high school is large and public and generally 4-5 students are accepted to northwestern yearly. If someone got into Bienen early decision this cycle, I’m assuming that my chances of admission aren’t hurt for the reason being a quota being reached from our school, correct?

does this link work for anybody?
ttps://ugadmission.northwestern.edu/register/?id=24102324-7f81-4e8d-bd44-962d1b124d9a
(add an h to the start)
do you get an error about not having an admit decision

I have this error as well

I see “ Unfortunately our records indicate this applicant does not have a First Year 2025 admit decision, and is not eligible to register for this event.

yep, thats what i have too. wording seems kind of ambiguous to me … could mean they haven’t uploaded admissions decisions or it could mean rejection. not sure.

is this what you guys when you try this link? ugadmission.northwestern.edu/register/?id=96358518-a80e-444f-8efb-77ef4465577e

I feel like its too ambiguous to mean rejection, it says “fall 2025 admit decision” not “this applicant wasnt admitted”

yeah, that’s what i’m thinking. probably just badly worded. NU seems pretty good about patching astrology so this would be a major slip-up on their part lol.

Did Northwestern ever send out email for decision day?

it’s on the portal

I dont know if this is a sign, but when you go to the application portal → inspect → network → refresh the page, you will see an html file called status, after opening over there under response headers, you will see something like Content-Length: some number. Mine is 6367 and apparently thats alot so does it signify acceptance/waitlist?

Im tweaking, ik its a few hours but cant wait, can anyone try and check?

i got 235581

wait wrong one i meant 6272

i have 6346

6340

how do you do it

I think it actually signifies something? I can’t find “inspect” at all?

right click your page and it should come up, its not a button on the portal

I am sorry but wdym by right clicking the page?
