Who will be attending the ASW at the end of this month?

I'll be there! You can find my overeager posts about it in the admit FB group lmao

so this is all speculation but based on just general vibes, the first JS2 wave was huge compared to last year's December wave and I think took the place of the January wave. I wouldn't expect more JS2s until there are several rounds of JS1s. my bet is 2 rounds of JS1s this week since the app is clos...

Got the call at 10:46.

!!!!! that reapp paid off!!!! amazing!!!!

Ahh the calls go out in alphabetical order, right? it's been theorized but has very little backing it up I wonder if it's multiple people doing calls - did the person who interviewed you give you the call? that is USUALLY the case but I think in this wave it might be different - I got my acceptance...

also CONGRATS to all the new admits!!! selfishly I've also been waiting for this because it makes everything feel real on my end lol

Curious what state the admitted students' site is in now.

Exactly the same as Monday, unfortunately!

I'm rooting for y'all today! A piece of advice - stay busy if at all possible. I was in a Wednesday wave after a long weekend and happened to have off work on Tuesday and bumming around my house waiting for the phone to ring was one of the most stressful days of my life. The next day, when I had wor...

Anyone know what time of the day that waves normally start? Unfortunately, it varies quite a bit, though I believe it's always started during typical business hours. Personally, I think it's coming this week but I'm not sold on it coming today. My fingers are crossed for y'all though! Any particula...

I am 95% sure there will be a wave in the next week because they unlocked the admitted students' portal and it's almost totally set up - it hasn't been available to me as a deferral til this week, and I've been checking because I was worried Admit Weekend would line up with a vacation I have schedu...

Hi! I am not a NU student but was in the first wave last year and it was mid/late-December (I think the 18th). I believe ED found out around the same time.

Yup, adding now! I'm also happy to yield OP to someone else because I can't promise I'll stay on top of the waves

I don't think so because this isn't a sanction - there was no disciplinary action taken. Will defer to others, though!

I have no idea. I would assume so, since they need to verify how many spots they have available!

^ I think she means those who had JS1's who are not going to be selected in the December wave. Thank you! I'm pretty sure that deferral refers to admitted students who have chosen to push back starting 1L. Since that means they would start with future classes, I'd imagine that HLS would have to fin...

I can tell you they just started confirming deferrals yesterday so that makes me think they're coming soon! Maybe next week

did you guys speak in a professional manner in your interviews or was it more on a personal friendly level? This is based on last year, but the only interviews I had that I found to be less professional and more casual were UVA and Northwestern (which I did in person with an alum, so I assume varie...

Friends who have had JS1s, were the questions pretty much what you would expect? Any curve balls? Last year, they asked me what I'd look for in other applicants if I were on the admissions committee, which threw me though it may not be a true curveball! I think there's a LOT of types of questions t...

If you sign up for a 12pm interview slot it'll be at 12pm. Don't overthink it.

You should absolutely not ask them this

I think if you asked your writer to take that angle, he did not offer to show it to you, and you trust him, you should not. I asked for my LOR writers to focus on specific things and all of them said they would but did not offer to show them to me. I would've felt VERY uncomfortable asking and ended...
