Also got the call a little bit ago! Late September interview, so I had really given up hope! I know it's tough seeing other people get the call, but it's not over yet!!

Congrats! I interviewed at the same time so I'm glad to hear that we are still under consideration!

I was not expecting it so late, but I guess at this point they have everyone who has interviewed and can look at them all. The person who called (I genuinely don’t remember who it was) said they had just gotten out of their meeting, similar to what has been said before.

Received a scholarship offer from my state school today, so now I'm pretty much made peace with a WashU rejection (for the next 45 minutes at least). Happy Friday!

 

[TheDirtiestDiaper]

T-15 minutes until the meetings ends, maybe.

 

[theoddorre]

i dont think they hold meetings on Match Day, but maybe

They hold meetings on fridays? I thought they just meet on Thursday + send out As over the following days depending on who can call.

Just got my financial aid package on NetPartner about need-based aid. Has anyone heard recently about merit aid? Got the acceptance 4 weeks ago and haven't heard anyone get merit aid yet from that time frame, so I'm not sure if the need-based package factored in a merit aid of nothing, or if they haven't made those decisions yet.

I got in 2 weeks ago and got my merit scholarship offer today!

Today’s match day idk if I we’ll hear back.

I’d love to be proven wrong, but based on last years thread I’m not sure we can expect more than a few WL acceptances after April 1st. The class size was apparently reduced to 100 last year, so I suppose that explains it.

I'm inclined to agree simply to put an end to this constant cycle of hope followed by despair. However, considering the implications COVID has had on the application cycle, I'm also inclined to think there may be more WL movement than in normal years. What do you think?

You reckon all As are done?

 

[TB12-Goat]

You reckon all As are done?

Sorry, I should’ve clarified - I believe there are definitely As left to go out between now and April 1st(?) or 15th (whichever day they said decisions would be announced). As far as how many, I have no clue but I can’t help but think it will be a small number.

My main point was that only 1 person reported getting in off the WL in last year’s thread, presumably related to a reduction in class size, so once the preliminary As are finished we may be basically done.

Again, this is ultimately just pessimistic speculation on my end haha.

Any calls today?

 

[akg0119]

Any calls today?

Yes, from my mom

 

[cachapa]

I think I might mentally combust if it takes another two weeks for the next round of decisions to come out...

I'm just trying to mentally commit to the notion that I'm either WL'ed or R'ed but this little ray of hope keeps forcing itself forward and it's so exhausting.

 

[zorcandpals]

Yoloed a letter of interest but it might be too late RIP

 

[akg0119]

Does anyone know when WashU's second look is? They have to give us some kind of a decision before then, right?

 

[pennylane8991]

April 10th

 

[akg0119]

April 10th

Is it just me or is April 10th the second look for a lot of schools? Is this normally the case?

 

[lacrossegirl420]

did they just forget the rest of the applicants exist lol

 

[robo54]

Is it on their website? Or did you get an email?

They informed people via email.

Interviewed early Jan and haven’t heard anything yet, but I saw one person who interviewed early Jan and one who interviewed early Feb got the call already

Holy smokes!! So happy for you, congrats! Hoping to join you in your excitement in the near future 🙂

 

[Skaterboi123]

I love waiting :')

 

[justagirl213]

Just called the admissions committee. Said they’re still sending out a few A’s but they’re usually done sending majority of A’s at this point. Not impossible but chances are definitely low atm.

 

[justagirl213]

Also, they’re running a bit ahead of schedule and are aiming to get decisions out by April 1st.
