I just found my online status still show"Application Status: Submitted" ..... No other information such "under department review"...Anyone can share your status?

I submitted mine on Jan 11 and one reference letter was not submitted until Jan22.

Thanks.

Just figured it out with Paul's help. One should go to downloadable form session to download ...
"Application Status Form" to see the current status ...

 

[kichuxj]

I know one guy got admitted 1 week after submission in March. School said result will be sent out late this week or Monday next week. Did anyone get admitted already?

 

[achilles]

this week is almost over , except tomorrow ...
i dont think they send out decisions on Saturdays or Sundays ...

Paul, did you get an email saying you get admitted or an email saying decision is available (and you know it in that system)?

 

[Paul Mithouard]

Informal admission by email and then a few weeks later an email saying decision available.

 

[smile]

They worked really hard

i got my admit on a sunday afternoon

 

[kmisha]

achilles, congrats on your admission! Just saw your status change in the tracker. Did the email come from GSAS or from Prof. Smirnov?

 

[Andy Nguyen]

And if you decide to go there, please mark it your "Final Destination" in the Tracker as well

 

[kmisha]

Seems like admission decisions start to crop out slowly...another member just posted their result.

 

[Andy Nguyen]

Yes, decisions are coming out in bunches. Please update your Tracker and select the Final Destination if you have made up your mind.

 

[descendents]

Why the admission results are out so fast this year ? According to Tracker, most results for fall'10 admission are out in late in March and early of April.

 

[kmisha]

Is it a general practice in all schools that part-time applicants are looked at after the full-time? A full-time applicant who applied a month after me posted his results already...
