<p>Look, there’s about a ten-day window, and in the long run it doesn’t matter at all when in those ten days Chicago gets its decisions posted. The anxiety is going to be there no matter what. When they know what date it will be, they usually publicize it several days in advance. No one’s life is going to be horribly affected if he or she doesn’t know, today, when exactly (between the 17th and the 26th) the Chicago decisions will be released. And any of those dates could be called “mid” or “late” March.</p>
<p>For what it’s worth, in recent years --and history means very little in Chicago admissions – the 17th would be really early, and the 26th fairly late. I think there are practical reasons why Monday is not a likely day of the week. If I were guessing, I would guess that the sum of the digits for the day will be 3 or less. </p>
