<p>Oh man…I’m gonna call now too! lol</p>
<p>This is getting intense.</p>
<p>Danoush, who did you talk to?</p>
<p>Crystal. </p>
<p>I asked her when we are going to find out. She asked me if I was EA or RD, I said EA and she asked my named looked up my file and said I will find out tomorrow. I said “is it a bad or a good thing?” and she said “noo! its a new batch tomorrow”</p>
<p>I don’t know what that means but I’m still not getting my hopes up.</p>
<p><em>cries</em> I talked to the woman who answers the phone when you call the admissions office and she said there wasn’t a decision made for me, but there might be some released tomorrow, or so she heard. I’m trying to decide if I should call Jerry around 4…though I’ve been calling like everyday…maybe he’s annoyed with me. lol</p>
<p>it sounds like they aren’t sending out rejections, only acceptances, i just wish they would send out rejections during this time, so at least people would know if they were still being considered or not.</p>
<p>and where are people getting jerry’s number from?</p>
<p>From [url=<a href=“http://collegeadmissions.uchicago.edu/level2.asp?id=190]here[/url”>http://collegeadmissions.uchicago.edu/level2.asp?id=190]here[/url</a>].</p>
<p>Just scroll down to Jerry Doyle.</p>
<p>Another student from Georgetown was accepted on Friday:</p>
<p>Me: I was accepted at UChicago.
Friend: No way! One guy on my floor was also accepted.</p>
<p>I just talked to Jerry to ask for my decision. He looked up my file then asked for my phone number and said he was going to call me back in a minute!</p>
<p>I think Jerry is quite skilled in the art of torture. :D</p>
<p>Good Luck JohnM represent for us CCC little folk.</p>
<p>So we seem to have figured out that they are making about 25 decisions per day. That’s encouraging. Are they e-mailing decisions every day or are people only finding out by calling up?</p>
<p>emailing but we are impatient and calling them.</p>
<p>But there’s no evidence that they’ve emailed anything since friday.</p>
<p>…still waiting for Jerry’s call…</p>
<p>I bet tomorrow is the first batch.</p>
<p>So basically we have very little idea of what’s going on. Which is a lot more information than I have about all the other schools I applied to, but somehow those ones aren’t driving me nuts… I’d rather I never found that blog… or CC for that matter. Too late now though.</p>
<p>Same here. The little morsels of info are worse than nothing at all.</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>When I said that Cornell CAS reviews around 30 applications a day, nobody believed me. </p>
<p>Dont forget that there is more than one admissions offcier. </p>
<p>Also, 10 minutes is not enough to read and summarize. At least when it comes to my applications.</p>
<p>There is a difference between reading an app., and an application being in a committee. I would guess that it takes 10-15 minutes to read an app, but in committee it would only take about 2-5 minutes max (i read an article where in penn’s committee they average 1 minute per application). The thing is I guess that all the officers read the applications, which i guess is a good thing, and the reason that decisions are coming out so slowly. </p>
<p>any word John ?</p>
<p>No word. </p>
<p>1 hour, 10 min >> “a minute” :(</p>
