This is the official thread for those applying EA/ED to University of Chicago.
List your unweighted GPA, any SAT /ACT scores, and ECs. What majors are you going into?
Ask your questions, the CC community is here to help!
My kid is applying SSEN and wondering if there are others to share admissions info., etc. My kid hasn’t submitted yet but curious if any early submitters have heard back from Chicago on decisions.
My son is applying too. A couple of his friends who sent the applications in on the 1st are still waiting, but the rumor is that they should get the decision tomorrow.
The first batch of the decisions are out!

I’m hearing mixed bag. Very high stats kids not getting in and others accepted without high numbers. Makes sense in some ways. They really care about the essays.

My daughter was accepted. Very high GPA and rigor, strong ECs, did not submit standardized test scores (although she did self report her AP scores). Her personality was on full display in her essays.

Congrats to those accepted! My son’s two friends from his school both got in too. He finally submitted his application. Hoping to hear back by October 10.
