** Official Northwestern Class of 2021 Discussion Thread **

It seems like northwestern likes to release them at the beginning or end of weeks, so Thursday afternoon appears to be the release time.

Wait, what is this about a portal? Is that something I should’ve done by now?

@Ariz0na you can make a portal at https://ugadmission.northwestern.edu/account/login by hitting forgot password if you want but otherwise NU will send out an email with portal information when they tell you results have been posted

@ths17112 So making a portal now isnt necessary? NU will just email decisions?

Anyone else tweaking right now? I’ve seen people find out about Notre Dame and WashU, while I’m here twiddling my thumbs and praying…

Columbia just released their decisions as well… this waiting is killing me

@Ariz0na I believe NU emails you info to make your portal so that you can access your decision on the portal, not directly through email. either way you’ll have to make the portal at some point so some people have already done it

My friend just got into columbia… I’m so scared right now I don’t think I’ll be able to sleep for the next four days

this is my most visited page on google chrome right now lol…why must we wait like this???

I wish they would at least give us a time, I know duke emailed its ed applicants telling them what day and time they would be released

I just sent an email asking about the date and time they will be released, hopefully they respond before they send desicions…

please let us know if they respond

@Wildcats_21 Let us know if they respond!

I asked the NU admissions department if they would be sending out an email telling us the exact date and time decisions will be coming out. They said that they would not be doing that but that we would hear this week:(

Notre Dame just announced…maybe Northwestern is tomorrow?

I got an automatic reply saying they are receiving a high volume of emails so their response may be delayed :’)

Northwestern (Comp. Engineering) student here! Good luck to y’all XD
Email me with any questions: matthewwang2020@u.northwestern.edu

Hi loves! Can’t wait to see some of y’all on campus soon enough! Just wanted to say good luck! Y’all will do great :slight_smile:

@MMSS2020 @marble7 Thx for the support! Also, @MMSS2020 could you tell me more about the mmss program?

@Chicagodreams9 Absolutely, just finished my first quarter of it and I’m super excited by it! It’s a program that combines mathematics and statistical analysis with the traditional social sciences (think economics, psychology, sociology…I think we have an English Lit major in the class of 2019!) It’s a separate application from Northwestern itself, so definitely take a look once you’ve been admitted. The classes are rigorous and you’re going to have a lower GPA than the rest of the econ major crowd, but you’re learning so much more mathematically that it just can’t compare. I’m an econ major as well, and I think it’s the best program possible for combining mathematics with economic study.
also Morty (our president) told me it was a great program. perks tbh
