Wait, have you already gotten your award or are you an ED'er? Nobody has gotten their merit aid yet right?
No, sorry! no merit here. DIdn't mean to alarm you, I'm waiting around hating myself just like ya'll.

Pretty sure on last year's thread some people heard Friday others heard Monday! Not sure if they were all admitted before end of Feb though

Keep in mind we're dealing with Chicago time, so it's an hour earlier than EST. And last year they went out around 5:30 EST. And by this time last week Johann had tweeted that we weren't getting any; so the fact that he hasn't tweeted anything like that yet gives me hope.

Many adcom members were in Los Angeles yesterday for an admitted students dinner. If today is the day, then we should probably also give some leeway for flight time back to Chicago.

Johann tweeted around 3pm eastern last year about scholarships.

We'll see what happens...

I totally feel you guys, but if any non-applicant read these posts the neurotic-ism is palpable.

I agree, but there are a lot of schools that have deposit deadlines of April 1st. It is hard to make decisions without a full picture and all the information.

Hey, good to see you NotAGolfer! Any closer to a decision on schools than you were during the Columbia ASW?

You too! Nope, I'm super torn :) It would be really helpful to have more scholly info (especially a Richman Fellowship decision). How about you?

If I get what I'm predicting from Northwestern, It'll be a tough decision between them and NYU. I have no hopes for Columbia. I don't think I got the fellowship and they are notoriously stingy with aid, especially with my garbage GPA.

I feel your GPA pain. I can't wait for it to be a month from now when I'll most likely know where I'm going and my future debt load. The not knowing is killing me.

NYU and NU are very good options to be torn between though :)
