Yeah I was crossing my fingers to be a part of the group that hears back sooner bc I think a lot of ppl heard around the end of January last year. But that was just me being hopeful haha

Yeah im in the same boat. I thought since most of us submitted by the priority deadline we'd hear back by now. Hopefully decisions don't come out too late so people have adequate time to move if necessary!

Yes, was really hoping to hear back by now as well. I remember they mentioned in the informational session that most applicants who submit within the priority deadline have very much higher chance of admission and that they usually would have most seats filled then compared to applicants submitting after the priority.

I agree. I saw last year's forum and many heard back late and some had to move from out of state. Luckily, I reside in WA but quite a far distance from PLU campus. My lease ends next week and was really hoping to hear back beforehand to help me decide whether to renew lease or to move closer to campus.

Oh man that's tough. I thankfully live close to PLU. I hope they send out some more acceptances by the end of the week or even beginning of next week so you can get your housing situation figured out.

Anyone heard back towards the end of last week or today? ?

No I haven't heard back either unfortunately. Sorry to hear about your moving situation too, that sounds stressful. What are you going to do? Has anyone tried calling the grad admissions office? I also have time sensitive moving arrangements because I have a program that starts in late March and would need to relocate for both there and PLU.

I haven't heard back either. I might try calling the admissions office tomorrow to get an update. I had an interview today with another school and if they send a decision soon, I will be in a pickle about accepting that school or continuing to wait on PLU. I know a lot of schools only give you a limited period of time to accept or decline.

I ended up just moving to Tacoma because it would have been too expensive if I renewed my lease especially for a shorter duration. I plan on contacting the grad admissions by this Friday if I don't hear any updates. I wonder how many accepted decisions they have already sent out....

Did you end up calling the admissions office? If a school gets back to you sooner they'll likely give you couple of weeks to accept or deny admission. In that case you could always submit a tuition deposit to save your spot though it may be a few hundred dollars - not the best scenario but better safe than sorry? At least that's what I'm doing

Sorry to hear that! I think a lot of us were planning things around the decisions unfortunately. Hopefully it works out in your favor and you get it in and already live close to campus! I've also been wondering how many they've sent out at this point. I was looking at previous years posts and it seemed like a lot of the late decisions were denials or waitlisted. The majority of us haven't heard back at all and all of us submitted before the priority deadline so I just can't imagine that we'd ALL be any of those two. Im trying to remain hopeful based on that but it is getting later and later so I am getting increasingly worried
