Congrats and welcome! You have the same decision as I had...Ross vs. Booth. But I think I know your answer from your previous posts :)

Done and done. I submitted my response (affirmative) yesterday and will have my deposit in today.

Now, I just have to cancel my lease in and moving truck to Ann Arbor, find somewhere to live in Chicago in 1-1/2 weeks when my lease is up, and get caught up on the mounds of material Booth is sending.

Good luck to everyone still waiting.

I put in requests to join the Chicago Booth Admitted Students and Class of 2015 LinkedIn groups. The FB group must be secret though, as I can't track it down. I suppose Adcom will send me the link?

You can access it through the admitted students website. Or you can send Emily Salans a friend request and she will add you to the group.

Unfortunately, there is no official last date. It's tough to imagine admits after the 9/3 start of orientation, but people have been admitted in August the past.

Good luck

It looks like the last few years, many WLers have been taken off the list mid August. Doesn't mean anyone got in, just some were taken off the list.

Like Brandon432 said, there is no official last date.
