Chicago MSFM Chicago MSFM Admission Discussion

I hope Chicago turns this problem around quickly. It affects business and tourism a lot. I visited Chicago in 2017 and it was a great place to visit but things got worse the last few years.
The mayor even lost her re-election because of crime issue.
"Polls showed public safety is by far the top concern among residents of the third-largest U.S. city."

Chicago's incumbent mayor Lightfoot loses re-election bid

Chicago's incumbent Mayor Lori Lightfoot lost her re-election bid on Tuesday, with vote totals showing that two of her rivals will face each other in an April runoff ballot.

Yep, Chicago residents realize they want change. Politics aside, not many candidates can do much worse than Lightfoot.

Hi all, I just received my decision letter, I'm accepted with 60% in scholarships! I applied at the first round. On the 21st of February Meredith promptly emailed me because the committee wanted an additional letter of recommendation (for a position I hold in a student fund) which I delivered about a week later. I initially was told that I would receive my admission on the 10th of March, but I received it on the 3rd instead. I'm going to accept, if anyone here is admitted and plans on enrolling, do get in touch!

This is excellent news to hear Felix. Congrats.
I would strongly encourage you to share your timeline on the Tracker and mark Chicago as your choice so others who going there can easily connect with you. Thank you for your contribution.

Please try again. I have made the GRE optional since many programs do not require them.
