    I will be turning mine in today, too. I'm pretty sure you print, sign, and scan it, like Resilient said. I wonder how long it will take after Monday for the decisions to go out...

    I think the email said we will know before the holidays... two weeks maybe?

    That's what I was thinking. Did y'all have a maximum character limit for the essays? The font just keeps getting smaller, allowing me to type more...

    That is exactly how mine worked. I had about 8-9 sentences for each. Not too much to say, especially for the first question...

    I checked with the school and they wanted a maximum of 300-350 words for each essay, in order to keep the font from getting too small to read. Mine were less than 200 words... not sure how many sentences though.

    Is anyone else checking their email several times a day?? I'm excited/nervous to find out...

    I received the same email too saying that offers will be sent out before the holiday. If they have the previous year's decision out by Dec. 9, then, we might know their decision as early as next week..... the latest we should hear from them should be on or before the 20th (before the holiday break)...

    I applied to 3 universities... I hope one of them will say yes... I am getting worried each day...

    Basing from the previous profiles of their students... it seems to me that they are so picky with their candidates... I have not seen any foreign school listed...also, the ratio of Asian students is low compared to other nationalities.... i think my chances of getting in is getting smaller each passing day.... I'm worried..

    I don't think your nationality is even part of the decision process.... Don't worry. I'm hoping we hear by Friday! *fingers crossed*

    Oh Lordy... I had no clue we could use that many words... Now I am SERIOUSLY worried. I just checked and each essay I did was only about 150 words.

    My emails are synced to my phone, so every time it buzzes I check to see if it is UTHSC haha. And hearing by Friday would be BEYOND awesome! Since they had to extend the application dates, I dont think they had enough student this time to let them be supper picky.

    Also, do they send the supp app to everyone, or just those that meet their TEAS score min/GPA min?
