<p>khristle, congrats on being accepted!
What is your gpa? And are you in or out of state?</p>

<p>Thanks =]
im out of state
and my gpa weighted is 4.9 and unweated is 3.6</p>

<p>khristle, did you just hear yesterday?</p>

<p>Sent in my application within 30 minutes of the submit button working (September 1st or something?), 2090/1420 SATs, 91.7 GPA, 5-6 ECs including board member of community service club and nothing so far. No senioritis for me =(</p>

<p>Thought I would pass this info on for whatever it’s worth:spoke to admissions yesterday and they said that the focus right now is on the spring semester, apparently they are still making decisions which is interesting since I would guess it starts in a few weeks. Anyway, it sounded as though there wouldn’t be too many if any decisons made on fall until this segment was complete. So the wait continues . . . .</p>

<p>That is interesting because spring semester actually starts on Monday.</p>

<p>Very confusing but the bottom line is they are not rushing to get decisions out and I would guess that most won’t hear back until the end of Jan.</p>

<p>That is pretty interesting. Seems odd as they have a weekend until the start. Hopefully they will still notify those who applied early by the end of the month and this won’t have any impact on that</p>

<p>Im sorry my response is so late but I heard back the first week in December</p>

<p>Has anyone looked at last year’s threads to see when the last round of decisions came out?</p>

<p>Yes, looks like the bulk were around the third week of January.</p>
