Correct. When decisions are released, you will get an email with the link to the page. You will have to make an account and then you can see your decision. It’s a tortuous process, trust me. Oh, and not everyone gets their decision at the same time; they come out over the span of a couple hours.
Good luck everyone.
Also, I read this really interesting article about the college admissions process that made me feel better about this precarious situation we are in. Give it a read!
Good luck everyone…this week’s going to change my whole life. If my boyfriend gets in, it’ll be wonderfully perfect; if he doesn’t…our compromise of breaking up will be effective 
Hope him and you guys will join us ED bunch!!!
A very interesting read! Good luck to all of you!
@alafae wow… Similar situation here except we’re both applying RD (her with slightly worse GPA/SAT).
My goal this week is to basically sleep as much after school as possible so that Thursday/Friday can just be here. The wait is killing me!
Sending positive thoughts for everyone! In past years many decision e-mails landed in people’s SPAM/JUNK folders, so be sure to check there when you start seeing other people getting decisions.
@Frazzled503 Wow good luck to you guys too But RD’s so much harder to get in, do you guys have back up plans? I’m stuck in ED
Yep! So far I’ve been accepted into Boston College and U of Wisconsin-Madison. But these next few weeks I’m hearing from a handful of schools: Brown, Upenn, Tufts, W&L, UVA, Georgetown… Right now I really feel like NU is the right place for me, but it is out of my control… I know I’ll love wherever I end up !
Still waiting on Brown, Tufts, Cornell, Johns Hopkins, Wesleyan, skidmore and Boston College… Ugh the next two weeks are gonna be brutal
Guys, treasure the anxiety in the next two weeks and the congratulations that comes with any offer. This’ll probably be the most genuine praises and boosts of self-confidence before you enter into the complicated adult and real college life 
Whatever these decision results are, you’re still an invaluable asset and your efforts will be appreciated, so embrace them!
It’s kind of funny to see that this stuff happens every year.
Expecting to hear from about 20 schools these next two weeks…yikes.
So we will hear from Northwestern probably this Friday!?
I hope so! The wait is killing me
The fact that we could get decisions tomorrow is just… omg. Trying not to get my hopes up.
I’ll be a wreck if the decisions don’t come tomorrow.
They absolutely need to come tomorrow!
Chill people… I would love for them to come tomorrow as well but that’s absolutely not a guarantee.
Wait it’s possible that the Dday is tomorrow? I’m freaking out now…
