Another day goes by in uncertainty. I’ve seen the words “Your application is in the final stages of review by the Admissions Committee. Please allow up to three weeks from the date of your interview to receive a decision.” spit back at me about a thousand times now. Maybe God is testing my patience. Or maybe Stern is playing hard to get. Why are you messing with me? I want you Stern!
It’s now 6:03pm at the end of the three-week “deadline”. The admissions office is closed. Unless someone is working overtime, I won’t hear from them today.
Maybe this is a good sign. 100% of the applicants I know of who had to wait longer than three weeks got admitted. But unfortunately, that’s with a sample size of 1. 
Thanks to all of my readers/supporters across the globe for waiting with me (I now have a sitemeter script on my blog, so I know I have readers from all over the world: Canada, Greece, Italy, Germany, India, Korea, Australia and the Netherlands). I hope to have good news tomorrow!
Hey,
Don’t worry. I am sure the time they take to get back to you is completely random. I am an example!
Good luck
So frustrating! I hope you get that admit soon. I have been pretty low tech with my blogging (I started in 2003 and haven’t upgraded). I saw your sitemeter and added the same thing on my site- my favorite part is to see where everyone who is reading my blog is located.
