Credentials are closing tonight

As we work to get the final applications complete, we will to be closing the credentials checking system tonight at midnight. If for some reason the credentials checking frenzy hasn't hit you, you have time to check your credentials tonight before the feature closes. If you have any further questions about your credentials, you should call the office at 773-702-8650.

Credentials checking for early action candidates who were deferred will reopen right after we send decisions.

Credentials checking for regular notification candidates will open in late January. We are expecting to need a lot of time to process all of the regular notification credentials. Usually twice the number of early action candidates apply regular notification. Again, we will notify students if their applications remain incomplete long after the deadline, and give them time to complete their applications before we make final decisions. Early action candidates, we are counting on you to calm the regular notification candidates while they wait for credentials to open.
