cipher,
when I called them earlier in the process I got the same answer. I guess they have this schedule they go by....they told me I would get a decision in feb and most likely an interview. They were right....there is one guy on their staff who is very good and will tell you what you want to know. If they said end of the month, you should hear back then. I wish other schools were this exact about their timing. The only bad thing about this is that they couldn't accomadate.
I interviewed at UIC a week or so ago. I had called finch and rush then and no help. Rush said they will look into it this time, we'll see. Which school are you going to and when??
