[li] Gender: Male[/li][/ul]General Comments/Congratulations/Venting/Commiserations,etc: So pumped to get in…especially OOS! Still waiting on decision for Ross Preferred Admit, which I assume will come out in mid-April?</p>

<p>when is the next batch of decisions coming out? do we know?</p>

<p>congrats to everyone so far!</p>

<p>From what I’ve gained looking at other threads, they apparently release them every two weeks. I got my decision online on Thursday, so I’d assume that the next release of decisions should be just before Xmas.</p>

<p>before xmas?!?! that would suck so bad. dont want a deferred decision to ruin my holiday mood</p>

<p>i still can’t believe i got my decision before some ER people… i didn’t apply ER (i applied on nov. 3, and they got all my stuff on nov. 18)… they were really fast for my decision (i got it this past thursday, dec. 11)</p>

<p>is the 24th when every ER person finds out?</p>

<p>The 24th is the latest that a ER person will receive their notification. I applied ER and I found out on Thursday, Dec. 11.</p>

<p>Peytoncline—I’ve heard from a friend that people who are extremely qualified heard back before November 24. That’s probably you too. In fact, my friend had a 35 ACT and is URM, and submitted his app/got the scores, recs, transcript in by 10/31. He heard back on November 8. I did the same and found out last Thursday.</p>

<p>I applied on Nov. 3; they received all my stuff by Nov. 18, and then I was accepted on Dec. 11.</p>

<p>Kind of disappointed that I got deferred.</p>

<p>2320 (740, 780, 800) (taken once)
800 Chem
800 Math II
5’s on Calc BC, Chem
4’s on US History, Comp Sci AB
3.58 GPA
Pretty Decent ECs (Lots of tutoring, Golf, etc.)
I thought my essays were pretty solid.
My school is great and super competitive - public magnet school, no class rankings, rigorous course load.</p>

<p>Hopefully I’ll get in regular, especially with my first semester grades.</p>

<p>deferred also:</p>

<p>SAT: 2320 (800, 750, 770)
3.3 UM GPA
good ec’s (golf, study abroad in israel, volunteering, model UN)
good essays
top 50 school, ultracompetitive</p>

<p>if i get a 3.6 this semester, any idea what my chances are regular?</p>

<p>When do the release financial aid info?</p>

<p>wat did u ppl apply to…business, engineering, or lsa?</p>
