****OFFICIAL Northwestern CLASS OF 2020 Discussion Thread****

@jacobpilawa I got waitlisted by MIT but flat out rejected from uchicago so I’m getting mixed messages from these schools lol

By the way, if the decisions come today, what time do you guys expect them to come out?

@stressedout4life 6pm est

@sosos22 thanks!

Music admissions officer said as of noon today undergrad admissions said most likely Friday or beginning of next week. It might be today though.

@TytoAlba hoping to!! XD

I hope it’s today… Ugh so tired of waiting

Me too, I just want to know…

My daughter got flat out rejected from UChicago with a perfect ACT score and a 4.4 GPA, captain of a varsity sport, 8 varsity letters and tons of community service, and she was an engineering major. So much for needing female engineers. Their loss.

@cutters

Sorry to hear this. If I might ask, are you (and your daughter) asian american?

@cutters that’s unbelievable and incredibly disheartening to hear :frowning: they truly missed out
just curious but are female engineers still so “rare” today?

I don’t know if this has been posted before but the tweet saying that decisions would be released next week from last week is gone as well as the tweet that said decisions would be in an email at least and possibly in the mail. it was there yesterday when i looked for it but gone today.

Not sure if it’s out yet but I got in ED and the admins on the Facebook group reposted a welcome post so decisions might come out today if they haven’t already

@cutters sorry to hear your news about UChicago. Very surprising given that the national average for women engineers are about 19%. My guess is that they thought she was going to MIT or Stanford and didn’t want to waste an offer to lower their yield.

The tweet is still there. It’s just under tweets and replies

It’s still there, you must be looking under tweets and not tweets and replies. The tweet is from 6 days ago @mt72323

@kipler @dimsum321 ah, my bad. sorry

@FlowerChild3525 Was that reposted today? How long ago?

Your daughter sounds extraordinarily talented. I’m sure she’ll do well at whichever college she chooses. I should note that UChicago has very little in the way of engineering, unlike MIT or CalTech or many other schools.
