Northwestern c/o 2019 Applicants (2015-2016) Forum

[Purplepen]

My complete status changed from mid-January to early March two weeks ago, but still waiting to hear. I just looked at the lsn charts, and later (aka April) responses don't look so good. I know lsn is based on self reporting of applicants, but I'm having trouble justifying not being worried that I'll be hit with a hold or ding at this point.

Guys, currently waitlisted at Northwestern. Just curious, what is a reasonable time to select as the latest date one is willing to remain on Northwestern's waitlist?

Waitlisted or held? I chose May 20 because it's well after deposit deadline and I don't want to be kept waiting forever. Though by the 10th I might extend it.

Had a date change yesterday on the letter status but no decision letter yet.

I haven't received a decision yet but have been poking around the waitlist boards for previous years. If you can stick it out through the end of May, you'll probably give yourself a fair chance at being contacted. Most decisions I've seen didn't come through til May 24th or so.

Just noticed same as well, it's admittedly a reach for me, but my top choice. Hoping for good news!!

Having been lurking forever, but I have become increasingly concerned that I have not seen any dates/date changes since my application went complete early Feb, after I finished my online interview. I have seen ppl in this thread mentioning a date/date change for their complete status. But for me, there is no date nor date change at all. I called the Admissions office, and they told me that my app is complete and nothing to worry. Is this normal though?

The date changes occur through the Decision Letter Delivery Service (DLDS), not the status check. You have only been complete what, 4 or 5 weeks? You have nothing to worry about. People have been waiting much, much longer than that.

Sorry if this has been shared already - is there a Facebook page for admitted students? If so, does anyone know how many people have joined?

There sort of is... It only has 76 members, which I think is less than have been admitted on TLS alone. Not sure that'll be helpful to you.

Every week I think, "This will be the week!" And every week I'm disappointed. But, ya know, maybe this week

I think this week too...students are on spring break.

Thanks!! Hoping they still have some spots left...

Anyone else still waiting on a decision? I remember seeing Johann tweet a few weeks ago that the admissions staff would be working through a lot of applications in the coming weeks, but there haven't appeared to be many decisions made.
