Yeah, seems like they have admitted the bulk (if not capacity) as of now, and just held some students in case the admitted transfers bail.cusenation wrote:11 out of the 21 people on the facebook page are new admits, the rest of us are 3L's.

FYI OCI Bidding is from the 17-23, so there is still time. I haven't put together a bid list so I imagine you're in the same boat as the ED transfers.

Re: UChicago Transfer Thread 2015
I got a nice, respectful email saying that they are very impressed with me as an applicant and would like to take a few weeks to make a decision. I interpret this to be a very polite way of saying that I'm waitlisted.champloo wrote:Hold or waitlist?Cerberaus wrote:Waitlisted.

Yes, it was definitely a standard form letter. And no, I never interviewed.Traynor Brah wrote:it was a form letter.Cerberaus wrote:I got a nice, respectful email saying that they are very impressed with me as an applicant and would like to take a few weeks to make a decision.

What exactly is the difference between a hold and a waitlist and is one more promising than the other?

Pretty sure University of Chicago just uses the term “hold” instead of “waitlist”

Anyone treating this like a formal waitlist and writing a letter of continued interest?

Anyone who was accepted or on hold withdrawing based on getting into other schools? Wondering if spots for those on hold are opening up.

Re: UChicago Transfer Thread 2015
Hey sorry to necro an old thread. Was wondering if anyone in your cycle was removed from hold and accepted? Thank you.
