Hey all -
I have a question for everyone that has either attended or been invited to one of Johnson's scholarship weekends. I'm probably WAYYY over analyzing this, but I'm interested to hear if people did pay or will pay their deposit prior to attending the weekend (assuming they're set on attending Johnson regardless of financial aid outcome)? Or did people delibrately hold off until after the scholarship decisions were made? I guess my point is - do you think paying your deposit clearly signals your intent and so Johnson might be LESS likely to offer you money bc they might feel they already have you "wrapped up" so to speak and dont need to throw aid your way to entice you. On the flip side, maybe its good to pay your deposit and show your intent bc no one likes rejection so Johnson might be MORE likely to offer you money if they know you will definitely be attending their school in the fall. Am I really over analyzing this or is it worth considering? For the record - i have not yet paid my deposit, but will be attending Johnson in the fall regardless of how anything else shakes up. I'm just debating whether or not i should just pay my deposit and get it over with or still play a little "hard to get".
Any and all thoughts with regards to this would be greatly appreciated and I hope to meet some of you next weekend.
Thanks.

Quick question for admitted/rejected applicants who were interviewed: How long after your interview did you receive a decision? It seems like they kind of trickle out, and then a lot come out on the deadline. Is that accurate? Thanks.

Rd3 applicant, interviewed on Monday, Feb 27th.....Mar. 27th can't come soon enough 
But I think most applicants, including myself, over analyze when it comes to admissions (see discussion about on campus vs off campus interviews a few posts back).
