I'm quite grateful that tomorrow I'll be at my internship from 8:30-4:30, and while I will have access to my email (and be regularly checking it because duh), I'll be kept busy. Now, if decisions are not released on Saturday...who's gonna be the one to call Monday? ? I feel like their office will be SLAMMED with calls if they don't release by the deadline - which to me, is fair, because if we have to follow a deadline, they should as well. (And honestly, depending on what time I get off my internship...I may call myself). a lot of variables can affect when schools release decisions - staffing levels, # of applications received, and quality of applicants in the early and regular decision rounds. Don’t stress out if the decision comes after Feb 1! Personally, I’m crossing my fingers for good news on Friday morning. Liza123 1

ghklig Posted January 31, 2020 Posted January 31, 2020 I’m curious, does everyone’s application status portal still look the same, ie just says “complete” without any other changes? MCSW23 1

ghklig Posted January 31, 2020 Posted January 31, 2020 Well, I’m going to stop refreshing the application portal every 60 seconds to try and maintain my sanity. I guess I’ll just have to wait for that decision email!
ghklig Posted January 31, 2020 Posted January 31, 2020 Well, don’t hold your breath! The admissions office told me that everyone will get their decisions tomorrow, Saturday, including those that applied by the Jan 15 deadline.
katp Posted January 31, 2020 Posted January 31, 2020 (edited) Welp, good to know. Hope it's a good news saturday for y'all Edited January 31, 2020 by katp

The admissions office told me that everyone will get their decisions tomorrow, Saturday, including those that applied by the Jan 15 deadline. Yeah I finally gave in and called earlier today. Was told the same thing - although I didn't realize the admissions people had been changing the date around (that's what the lady I spoke to said). She wasn't sure about what time, but honestly I have a feeling it'll be early morning. Here's to waking up to good news! ghklig 1
ghklig Posted February 1, 2020 Posted February 1, 2020 They’re really dragging out the suspense! MCSW23 1

Liza123 Posted February 1, 2020 Author Posted February 1, 2020 You know, the lady I talked to yesterday did make a comment that we would hear back either today or on the 3rd. But then she sounded so sure about today that I didn't think much of it? I didn't even think admissions people would be working on a weekend...
Liza123 Posted February 1, 2020 Author Posted February 1, 2020 Okay, so apparently they are open until 4:30pm. For those of us on the east coast...two more hours of waiting to go ?
ghklig Posted February 1, 2020 Posted February 1, 2020 Admissions staff — at least undergraduate admissions staff at highly selective schools — work 12-hour days, 6-7 days a week during “reading season”. I wasn’t surprised about a Saturday release, but given the time (3:12 pm in Denver), I won’t be surprised if emails go out on Monday. Oh well.
MCSW23 Posted February 1, 2020 Posted February 1, 2020 I’m at the KU basketball game right now and just can’t keep from refreshing my email. I’m so anxious

I've been to the gym, I took a nap, I just walked to the grocery store to pick up medication, all in an attempt to keep busy. Fortunately, a friend invited me to her org's event tonight so that should keep my mind off the fact that we'll be hearing back Monday (considering the time). MCSW23 and ara275 2
