My estimate on the googlesheet was based on the last three years and a trend towards releasing early ?

SexandtheHaecceity Posted January 24, 2019 Share Posted January 24, 2019 Yeah, the anticipation is really wearing on me. I've received no responses, good or bad, yet but a lot of my top choices should have decisions rolling out over the next week, including Northwestern.

practically_mi Posted January 25, 2019 Share Posted January 25, 2019 Slightly freaking out about that surprise wave of rejections from Brown--I still haven't heard from them and last year they sent out all rejections on the same day and acceptances/waitlists the following day. Trying really hard not to get my hopes up... Anyone else who still hasn't heard from Brown? Kantattheairport 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SexandtheHaecceity Posted January 25, 2019 Share Posted January 25, 2019 Can't seem to find Georgia State's writing sample requirements anywhere on the admissions page. Does anyone know the page/word limit for their application? Wondering if I need to pare down my sample, and if so then by how much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What does that mean? Small kindergartener for life? Serial killer for life? Søren...? No, ....Hmmm... Oh! I got it. The 4 is an A, because you're a l33t h4ck3r. So, it's SKA LIFE. Oh, that's great! I like ska too. I kinda get teased about it every now and then. TheFormOfTheGood and antianticlimacus 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've checked the spreadsheet and it appears as "Interview?". I think it only means that Chicago probably will request an interview.
