Also haven't heard from Northwestern. Looks like they have an unofficial waitlist, and as soon as some people accept the offer they send out a bunch of rejections. A friend of mine told me that last year he received acceptance in mid-April (in off the waitlist) but at the time he had already accepted a better offer. Hope this helps

No news yet, either via email or on the website. I asked the admissions coordinator last Friday when to expect news and haven't received a response. Anyone else hear anything since last week?

To answer the question: I emailed them asking for decisions last Friday, and got an automatic reply that all decisions will be out 3/16. Today they emailed me in a separate email titled "NU Master of Science in Analytics Application Status". I didn't even get interviewed....and hence emailed last Friday to check in. Congrats to those who got in!
