I at least like the data points! Numbers are soothing 🙃

Now we wait for Friday.

Good Luck to everyone! As a Michigan resident, Wayne State seems pretty appealing right now because they're generous with their checkbooks, and at least they got back to me in a timely manner (2 weeks!)

Wayne State also transfers well to Michigan.

I didn’t get a waitlist email either….
When did everyone apply? I applied 02/05
20:40
I’m applied 2/26 but my application wasn’t at complete status until 3/11
20:42
It feels like there’s no rhyme or reason to how the applications are reviewed. I see people who applied after me with completion dates and decisions before mine.
CheeseIsMyLoveLanguage
20:57
@LegallyTae: I think the one person you're referring to put their data in wrong. They said they received their decision in January, but went complete in March. That doesn't make sense. Also, I'm pretty sure your app was received on the last day they accepted. They probably had a small rush of apps that slowed down the time between receipt and being marked complete. 😊
21:08
@CheeseIsMyLoveLanguage: my email says it was received the 26th. Which means all the people that applied the 28th and got some sort of response beat me 😳
CheeseIsMyLoveLanguage
21:14
@LegallyTae: Oh! I went based off of your profile information, which said it was sent on the 26th (LSAC) and received by UMich on the 28th, so I assumed an LSAC lag there.
CheeseIsMyLoveLanguage
21:17
@LegallyTae: Either way, there's only been one acceptance, so I'd take it as a good sign! You're still on the fence of consideration, one way or another. 😊
CheeseIsMyLoveLanguage
21:22
@LegallyTae: I listened to Dean Z on YouTube the other day while cleaning and she said they don't leave anyone questioning, so they let us know as soon as they're sure. They try to build a holistic class, so as they narrow down, they have piles of one the fence between A/WL and WL/R. This late in the game, they like to get through all of the apps that were submitted later before making final decisions on the ones they're on the fence about. They also hold back As this late to ensure that everyone who submitted gets a fair chance of being admitted. I'd take it as a good sign 😊
7:54
@CheeseIsMyLoveLanguage: I watched the same video!! I have been trying to find any reason to hold out hope! We just have to make it through the day!

Hey! As I told my husband, it will be way easier if just one school really believes in me and really wants me. Everyone else can reject me. It'll be clear the path that I'm supposed to take. Not a rejection, a redirection.
DefinitelyRobbingBanks
16:10
Exactly! If nothing else, now we know at least one more data point!
16:17
I got nothing 😳. We're all going to land at the place we are supposed to be. I'm ready for this cycle to be done. The anxiety is crippling.
