<p>From the transfer application blog:</p>

<p>We might be a few days behind in recording this information since we’re busy trying to get the first-year decisions out the door but we’re fairly close.</p>

[cookiemonkey1004]

<p>they said that they will have a new updated post on their blogspot (uncommonapplication.blogspot.com) saying that decisions had been mailed.
so im going to stalk their blogspot like crazy to see if they have a new update or not. so far i just see an increase of comments on the lastest post and no new post!! X_X</p>

Everyone…</p>

<p>Reading the posts have been wonderful…most of us are here in the office working late…to prepare the mailing…which as you might imagine is fairly time consuming…</p>

<p>As Libby posted earlier, once we have settled firmly on a date next week…we’ll let you know.</p>

<p>Be well. Do good works. (borrowing a phrase from GK)</p>

<p>It looks like they won’t be mailing until next week - unless I’m reading this wrong. This is giving me a serious headache - how did one blackout cause almost a week’s delay in recieving a decision! :(</p>

<p>They probably weren’t going to make the march 22nd deadline</p>

[berenelen]

<p>I estimate Friday.</p>

[cookiemonkey1004]

<p>what!?!?!? next week??!?! noooooo!</p>

[berenelen]

<p>We’ll see. Let’s be patient.</p>

[BrooklynDad]

<p>That post makes it look like sometime next week, and maybe not Monday. Have a good weekend, everybody.</p>

<p>“how did one blackout cause almost a week’s delay in recieving a decision!”</p>

<p>You know all those wonderful essays you kids wrote … they read them, and thought about them, and discussed them. That all takes time.</p>

[stambliark41]

<p>bummer…I was hoping to hear from Chicago before the Ivies. :(</p>

<p>They should have said that they were sending on March 28th instead of the 22nd. UCLA did something like that…said the 15th but I knew by the 9th or 10th. And it just makes it that much sweeter to know before you expect to know.</p>

Right. Except that they were going to originally mail on the 22nd and then they said that because of a blackout there would be a delay. By a delay I thought they meant a maximum of one maybe two days. If they want to take more time to review applications that’s fine with me - as long as they just tell us what they’re doing. A 24 hour delay does not turn into a 3-4 delay without some other reason. We just don’t know what it is.</p>

<p>Corrected SAT scores?</p>

<p>It’s confirmed:</p>

<p>

To everyone…</p>

<p>We’re working late preparing the letters but these will go out next week and we’ve not yet set a firm mailing date…and we won’t know this exactly until Monday or Tuesday …but once we know…we’ll let you know.

<p>Goody, more delays. As logn as they’re mailed in under a week, I’m okay with it.</p>

[myketb]

<p>The letters are being mailed out on the 25th, this is coming from a coach who said it was straight from admissions. That’s Saturday, right?</p>

[Andy]

<p>yup</p>

<p>meaning I will have my letter by either saturday or more likely monday and at worst tuesday</p>

[corranged]

<p>I very much suspect the Chicago letters will go out before the Ivies’; they will want to use whatever methods they can (including the initial joy of a first acceptance) to attract students to Chicago from higher rated institutions.</p>
