procrastinatrice

Hi guys, As I am trying to reconcile myself to the idea that I'll probably never get off that waitlist at Northwestern, I started getting more and more anxious about my BU acceptance (my only acceptance so far). They said I will hear in March or April about my funding decision when they sent me the acceptance mid-February... and still no word. Did any of you hear from them about funding? I definitely won't be attending without funding, even if it means I have to do go through this hellish process again next year. Thanks!

Hi VandyCandy, I was the one posting the rejection last week. I e-mailed Carol like two days before getting the thin envelope and she said that all decisions were going out that day via post (but the acceptees were already contacted). I guess you should call if you haven't gotten any news, perhaps you are waitlisted.

That definitely wasn't me... the website still says nothing, and I feel like any news we are gonna get via the website would be bad news. This late in the process, they would either e-mail or call. I e-mailed them already, and they said nothing except that we'll be waiting for a bit more time. Do they realize how much more it is going to hurt when they wait until April 16th to reject people? They didn't even contact us to give an update on our status. Since there is apparently no official waiting list, we don't know anything about our ranking, or the possibility of eventually getting in. I am definitely not optimistic anymore though.

I am still waiting as well...and apparently we won't hear until early April. I am so anxious I can barely function. Northwestern is my best fit.
