Are Rs and WLs by email?

 

[justlikehoney]

+1 OOS WL. Really sad about this. Pritzker is my #1. Two WLs and no As. Only 2 more schools that I interviewed at. I’m really scared

you got this don't worry 🙏

 

[lesbianherbs]

anyone else still waiting on a decision? .-.

Yep and my friends are chastising me for being on SDN while out at a bar with them

I feel, this is my top choice. I know they are probably just staggering WL/R emails but still holding onto hope

Group chat for accepted students? I can make one!

Do people prefer GroupMe, Facebook or another app?

Can’t wait to meet everyone

I know how dumb it sounds but yeah, I prefer green facebook over blue facebook.

I second the GroupMe suggestion!

 

[mangobeach]

turns out admissions usually sends out a facebook group link around second look time!! and a groupme usually forms around thenmight be better to just wait it out so it’s more official/less confusing

Missing out on all the custom whatsapp stickers if you use groupme bro

I didn't even know that lmao. I don't use Whatsapp but I'm first-gen. I feel like I'm betraying my identity.

I got this same info about second look during my acceptance call!

 

[BerserkerIP]

just recieved the call early today. my letter came in earlier then expected. for those admitted, has anyone looked into housing options that UChicago may offer outside of finding an apartment? Please let me know!

 

[snowbolt23]

WL question -- does UChicago have a recommended timeline to send letters (updates/intent) for people on the waitlist? It is my top choice school and program so any insight would be so incredibly welcomed.

Has anybody received a merit scholarship yet?

Last year scholarships were sent mid march

Any sense of the landscape of scholarships available? Are there full tuition? Full ride? Are they as generous as Wash U seems to be?

From what I have heard, they are willing to go up to full tuition AND cost of attendance. IDK if this is based only on need or merit or both though. Additionally, 60% of the incoming class will have a full tuition scholarship (they sent an email or something about this a while ago).

Is the 60 percent full tuition merit?

Is the 60 percent full tuition merit?

I am not sure. Here is the link. I also made a mistake, the website says 50% (though I think I read somewhere that it is actually closer to 60% now, I do not recall where I read that).

School of Medicine to provide full-tuition scholarships to up to half of each incoming class

Revised curriculum will focus on empowering students to serve as patient advocates

When I emailed about some of my files around a month ago the associate director of fin aid said that I could expect a financial aid notification by mid March!

I think it was the email that I kept using to contact them so maybe they saw that one and sent it. there is NO portal update for me though
