UChicago EA Applicants 2019

<p>I lost count of how many shooting stars i wished on during the meteor shower a while ago to have the chance to go to my top choice :o</p>

<p>@djinforthewin‌ Every time the clock struck 11:11 I made a wish. I’m sure you can guess what it is but for anti-jinxing purposes I will not divulge haha. </p>

<p>Oh, and that admitted student from the facebook group is probably a questbridge applicant who was matched with UChicago december 1st. </p>

<p>Is anyone here interested in starting a decisions results thread for tomorrow?</p>

<p>@NateChortek there is one already, I believe! It was made a while ago so it’s a few pages back</p>

<p>@wethemusicmakers‌ Oh, okay. My bad, thanks! </p>

<p>Fingers (all of them) crossed for tomorrow!</p>

<p>@NateChortek no worries :slight_smile: Good luck! I seriously cannot believe it’s tomorrow. </p>

<p>i don’t have any work to do in school on Wednesday so i am just gonna stay home, watch Clannad, cry, and check my UChicago decision, and cry again either tears of happiness or sadness… a nice day indeed…</p>

<p>@wethemusicmakers‌ Thanks, you too! And I know. I’m kind of glad I have finals tomorrow, because I’ll be distracted during the day. haha</p>

<p>@NateChortek Yeah I’m on break already so I’ll have nothing to distract me but a dentist appointment. Tomorrow will be a roller coaster of emotions ranging from mild panic to i’m-going-to-die. </p>

<p>(and yes i know i won’t actually die that’s just the level of panic haha)</p>

<p>do you think an international seeking for aid tends to be deferred in EA?</p>

<p>@aliefmoulana‌, UChicago does state that it’s need-aware when it comes down to internationals. hey but who knows…</p>

<p>@wethemusicmakers im half russian so my mother obligated me to do it :)</p>

<p>@Esat936 Ah gotcha. </p>

<p>I hope I’m not the only one, but who’s a Penn ED reject(woohoo…)? </p>

<p>I’m just crossing my fingers for UChicago. I’m probably going to be performing in a concert when the results come out. Then I will either start crying in the middle of the piece and hope nobody stares at me (LOL) or probably faint during the concert. Ayy. XD</p>

<p>BTW, does anyone know about THE time of release? I’ve seen some previous entries on this thread about the last year’s results popping up as early as “8:00 am” (or I was just hallucinating, idk). Anyone?</p>

<p>P.S. I see you shiver with antici…
pation.</p>

<p>@gamink348‌ haha maybe you should wait to get home before checking! And yeah we figured there must be a time stamp error, because if you look through the thread when the time stamp says 8:01 am, someone commented “it’s just after 3 central time.” And all the admissions people said was “late afternoon,” which I guess means after lunch and before dinner…?</p>

<p>@gamink348‌ me too. penn was harsh, i honestly wasn’t expecting a straight up rejection. it felt really terrible, not gonna lie. </p>

<p>to anyone (and probably me lbr) who gets a rejection tomorrow: get angry. get annoyed. then go make some comfort food and take a nap. when you wake up you’ll feel a whole lot better. that way you won’t blame yourself, because it’s not your fault. admissions these days are completely crazy.</p>

<p>Nobody knows the exact time @gamink348‌. All we know is that it’ll be between lunch and dinner (CST) and that they have to wait until the dean has time to come by and officially ‘release’ decisions. </p>

<p>I’m so nervous I just want to go back to sleep until tonight </p>

<p>@ogacihcu‌ ahah did you see on the tumblr that they had to wait for the dean because he likes to press the ‘send’ button? I thought that was adorable</p>

<p>@wethemusicmakers‌ XD Thank you for your reply. I guess I’ll be on the cover of my weekly school newspaper with the article titled as “That one crazy kid from orchestra cries through the whole concert, audiences baffled” or somewhere similar to that. LOL. (Or if I get accepted, “That one random kid from orchestra has a heart attack during concert; recovering from the ER @ the local hospital.”)</p>

<p>Out of sheer curiosity, did anyone send their arts supplement? Any painters/mixed media artists here?</p>
