UChicago 2024 RD/ED II

I’m so nervous. UChicago is my dream school so it’s gonna suck if I check my applicant portal and see a rejection letter, but at the end of the day We all tried our best. So at this point, whatever happens, happens.

The fact that I am an international student applying for financial aid… I feel i will get rejected so yea nevermind.

Unrelated–can someone please tell me what DS and DD mean? I’ve seen parents refer to their kids simply as S or D, obviously meaning son and daughter. I can’t figure out the extra D in DS and DD. Can someone please enlighten me?

I think it just means “Dear”

When are decisions coming out

@Hit123 I believe around 4:00 to 4:30 central time.

Same situation here… :confused:

Same case. Ima console myself saying that I got rejected cause of the aid. Did same with Stanford. So here we go once more.All the best to everyone!

Also I am an Indian so its even worse… the school is full of us.

@curiousboy178 @delocalisedpi
I’m an international student applying for financial aid too.
& the fact that we haven’t applied ED1/2 makes it even worse…
I didn’t submit a video portfolio either and that will also hurt my chances.

Even i didnt submit

How is everyone coping? Even though my chances are slim, the stress is killing me.

Chill man . stressing wont change anything. Which country u from?

I’m eating a great sandwich rn, chilling

My son is expat ( US citizen but living in the EU ), deferred from EA and we are very relaxed, expecting denial since the statistics are like 0.5% of deferred students being admitted in the RD.

My DS was EA deferred. I noticed today’s date and time at the top of his December deferral letter. I guess that isn’t good.

There is a marker on my deferral letter that says “2020-03-13T17:00:00” so not sure if that means anything. Likely coming out at 4 pm Chicago time, 5 pm EST.

The time at the top of the deferral letter says 5 o clock today. . .

So is it 5 of EST or 5 of Chicago?

5 EST
