not feeling too good about things....
I'm not either . . .

I'm just hoping that they haven't gotten to the west side of the country yet . . .

Anyone in the western US received a call?

Ad-com Dean just tweeted the following about 70 minutes back "Tomorrow is final decision day for Round 1 Admits! A VERY EXCITING day for us in Admissions to welcome the first part of the Class of 2012!" ... Does that mean more action is expected?

I take it the adcom rep would definitely mention any $$ in the call, right?

She didn't for me, so I'm assuming that means none.

If anyone who did receive $ doesn't mind sharing how much...?

Kurt Ahlm called me and I think he did not mention $$$ in my case...I asked and I believe he said "no merit based scholarships were awarded for you"...but I was so excited that I couldn't care less about it...I will know every detail tomorrow when the decisions go live, so I think that today it will just be going out for dinner, drinking and celebrating...

I guess that’s it. They have been giving out calls since morning 8:00 am. They would be done by the 300 calls for R1 by now.

You guys are throwing in the towel way too soon. Calls take time to make. If you haven't heard by this evening, then, and only then, would I start worrying.

Well if last year is any indication, 79% of interviewees were accepted .... yields 26 total admits this year, so there should be fully 16 more of you. Don't loose hope people!

Looks like most of the admits (of the ones that reported their interview) received early interviews. That is, they received invites earlier than the mass mailing on 11/10 that I was a part of. Makes me wonder if that last round of interview invites was just a huge bin of "just in case" people . . .
