Is it weird to send an LOCI before getting a decision if its been months and most people who applied around the same time have heard back?

@UnevenInstinctiveSeal: yeah, typically schools prefer only to hear from you pre-decision if you have big updates to share

ParallelAgreeableOrangutan

11:24

LOCI is intended to help them choose off the waitlist efficiently to fill any remaining spots in their class; they don't want to waste time and energy calling someone who isn't ready to drop everything and attend

What school?

GULC. It's been over 3 months since my interview and they told people in the WL session they were going to start admitting off the wailist in a few weeks...

When was the WL session held?

It looks like GULC's seat deposit deadline is May 1, so it wouldn't surprise me if "in a few weeks" meant "around May 1"

I received my GULC II yesterday so they seem to still be genuinely considering applicants

yesterday. Based on the recap from reddit, Dean Andy told them to expect some movement from April 23-May 10.

11:43

I found a post just now that says he mentioned a first WL-->A wave around May 8. If I were you, as tough as it is, I would sit tight; they don't like to feel that applicants are hounding them (sucky system tho tbh)

It's my top choice so waiting has been really hard. I'm guessing at this point I'm on the cusp between WL or R

Andy also said he wouldnt be surprised if there was movement before seat deposits. Also to make sure to send a good loci. He said its basically another application cycle which doesnt make sense since preferential waitlist was supposed to be unranked?
