I just talked to my college counselor and she basically confirmed that it would be coming out at 6 EST (so 5 Chicago time and 3 PST) BUT she said there’s a good chance that they’re not released until tomorrow. Also, on a personal note, I don’t think it’s looking good, because she seemed kind of sad when she was talking to me (and so far our counselors have known about decisions before students are notified). We’ll see, I guess.
@jezreader maybe they’re trying to play you down because they know that you’ve been accepted? I do that sometimes too…
@jezreader how do college counselors know about the decisions before the students? that kind of sucks though. I feel like the acceptance rate will be really low
I called in sick to work because my anxiety is so bad…plus the decision would have come out during my shift and I know I wouldn’t have been able to wait. Idk if I can take another day of this if they don’t release decisions today. Also, does anyone know how hard it is to transfer into the journalism school? I applied to Weinberg but I’m kinda thinking of switching if/when I get there.
@jezreader yeah could you elaborate on that? I didn’t know that counselors know before students…
@indiaaa7 I’m not exactly sure how they know, but they’ve known about Northeastern and Stanford decisions before they’ve come out (and told us they knew afterwards). Plus, did you hear about the things happening at Brown? Kids at a prep school near me found out like a week early because their counselor was called, so this is a thing that happens I guess.
@namelessmonster I really hope so! She (my counselor) is also pretty weird/awkward so it’s kinda hard to read her so honestly who knows?
I am having a hard time digesting the fact that within the next 24 hours, I will know if I am going to Northwestern or not. I just cannot believe it…
Ok so my friend called Northwestern and they said only that it would be “the 15th at the latest”… where is everyone else getting their today forecast?
@Scullen16x someone’s counselor contacted the admissions rep and that rep said decisions would be put on the 14th
@Scullen16x when did your friend call Northwestern? I don’t think people know for sure because several have said that we might get it today, several have said we might get it tomorrow. At this point, we don’t know when it’ll actually come out until we get the email
I’m just kind of assuming it will come tomorrow, so if it comes today then I will be happy.
My friend called Northwestern 35 minutes ago.
What did they say?
Northwestern has neither posted a time on Facebook nor tweeted on twitter
Well c’est la vie
@Scullen16x yeahh what did northwestern say?
I sent an email to northwestern this morning and got a reply saying the decisions will come out either today or tomorrow. ( they have not finalized a specific time for decision release yet)
^:)^
All the Northwestern call said was tomorrow at the latest.
Good luck from Brown ED thread
