Additional info & updates

17/9- Priority Track Application completed at Duke. Not expecting too much but either way I will know my fate within 10 days!!

25/9- Interview request at WUSTL, wonder what this is...

26/9 - In at DUKE!!!! what an amazing way to begin -and possibly end- this cycle

8/10- had my interview at WUSTL, made it seem like i'm accepted and official acceptance letter came in on the 15th

17/10- In at Georgetown via mail! this is turning out to be a pretty amazing week thus far :)

29/10- In at W&M, scholarship info came in on the 1st

14/11- Fedex from Vanderbilt, in!! Status check changed to "decision made" on the 12th.

21/11- In at Washington & Lee via status check

22/11- Today was a VERY good day! Woke up to an acceptance from U Michigan (status check) and later received an acceptance call from Minnesota. I'm loving this cycle already

20.12- Mixed day. Accepted at USC (scholarship info came in on Febuary 21st), but rejected from UT Austin. Austin encouraged me to submit a "why Texas," in recognition of my non-resident status/high academic performance (LSP put my chances at 78%), which I did. Not sure how I screwed that up, but looks like I have. At any rate, seems like numbers are not the only consideration

January- Accepted to University of Chicago! Complete 10/2, ur1 10/29, interview request 12/13 ur2 12/18 after interview, ur3 12/23 and ur4 1/17 with decision out via email 1/21. That certainly softened the blow of being wait listed at U Penn (ur1 11/21, ur2 12/11).

February- In at Cornell via email! Took them forever to start reviewing: complete1 10/3-----complete 2 1/30---complete 3 (2/6), but once they did I received my decision within a week (2/7).
Also in at Emory with generous scholarship (2/11). I submitted in mid September and was in the first wave of acceptances. Assuming a rejection/WL from NYU after 4 months of no movement, this marks my last noteworthy decision of a surprisingly amazing cycle. I will however keep updating with financial aid info over the next months. Best of luck everyone!
