Northwestern RD Class of 2022 Discussion Thread

Could someone explain the college admissions process to me in one word

@APPLE756 torture

@APPLE756 utter nonsense. Sorry that was 2

@APPLE756 hell

it’s going to be Friday 5pm. sucks waiting all week

Did you get an email from the admissions office?

^How do you know?

Damn it i’m going to be out of the country by Friday. I don’t want Northwestern to ruin my vacation. Hopefully they release Thursday.

@dogsrmylife Did you get a decision?

Did anyone receive the likely letter from Duke?

this stinks…if this were last year, I would’ve known about NU and a few other schools by now. Seems like everyone is releasing a week later this year…:confused:

if anyone wants me to read their essay, just pm me!

@equality4all I haven’t heard whether or not I’ve been accepted since being deferred in December. I’ll find out with the rest of you when Northwestern releases their regular decision acceptances/rejections/waitlists

@lizzy1234 do you know for sure that it’s Friday at 5pm or is it just an educated guess? Has the decision come out at 5pm (central time I’m guessing) in previous years?

@elena83 NU decisions pretty much always come out at 5pm CT, as for whether it is Thursday or Friday that is unknown and just speculation. ED for class of 2022 came out on a Thursday and RD for class of 2020 came out on a Thursday, but RD for class of 2021 came out on a Friday. Your guess is just as good as mine as to which day, but it is fair to assume one of them. Let’s hope it’s Thursday!

@lizzy1234 I’m assuming that this is just what you fear and not what you’ve actually heard? Because it seems we’re all just throwing out dates and times randomly, hoping we land on something real. It really IS torture.

Someone from Northwestern admissions is eating popcorn while monitoring this thread.

They are coming out tomorrow

@Collegeisstressful222 why do you say that?

My family friend who works at Northwestern told me @MarvinKemp
