Just got the call about 30 min ago - admitted! Based in NYC - I'm excited that they have an admit event here. Best of luck to all!!

Congratulations to everyone!! I've said it before, but I have to say it again. DO NOT obsess about the status!! There is no indication there what so ever. SOme change in the beginning and then stop, some never change, some change with every step. Don't know why that's the case, but it has been this year... I guess they are pretty swamped with applications (and work!!) this time around. Calls will go out unitl tomorrow EOD! On scholarships, unfortunately no one will find out today. You will need to apply for every scholarship you think might be suitable for you (even need based, although that is an easy one). Everyone should definitely try though! Again good luck and hope to see you all soon!

Thanks for the scholarships info!

Received a voicemail from Stephanie, that she'd call me back--west coast applicant!

Missed the call from Stephanie at 4:15 she called back at 7:15 with the good news! Super excited Chicago applicant, attended Super Saturday

Texas applicant, received a call today at 4:45PM CT. Agree with everyone else that it was a very personal call, which was a nice welcome!

Yeah.. Seems like. I think only dings/WLs go on Wednesday

Did people from South America get the call? I am not currently in my country and though I notified admissions of my change of phone number, I have not heard anything and I am getting really anxious.
