A quick definition of majority report:

A majority report is a formal presentation of facts or recommendations for action made by a committee to a deliberative assembly. It is called a majority report because it represents the views of the majority of the committee members. In contrast, a minority report is a report made by members who dissent from the committee's views and propose alternative recommendations. Majority reports are often accompanied by recommendations for action, while minority reports may or may not include such recommendations. Law reports are also called reports and are published volumes of judicial decisions by a particular court or group of courts.

A more thorough explanation:

A majority report is a formal presentation of facts or a recommendation for action made by a committee to a deliberative assembly. It is called a majority report because it represents the views of the majority of the committee members. This is in contrast to a minority report, which is a report made by a member or members who dissent from the committee report and propose an alternative recommendation.

For example, a committee of ten members may have six members who agree on a recommendation and four members who disagree. The six members will write and present the majority report, while the four members will write and present the minority report.

In parliamentary law, a majority report is distinguished from a minority report. A majority report is a committee report that represents the views of the majority of the committee members, while a minority report is a report made by a member or members who dissent from the committee report and propose an alternative recommendation.

Anyone know how long it takes to get aid package after getting admitted to UChicago or Northwestern?
I’d ask in the t14 chat bc lol it may be a bit until you can get someone who can answer that question here

@syddak: Oof tough spot. Congrats on the As. Did either indicate either via email/mail that they would be following up with aid, and if so, did they provide a time frame? It may be acceptable to email them and indicate seat deposits are fast approaching and you are curious if you can expect further info (aid) from the school to aid u in ur decision..
