I'm also an international applicant and my status went from Preliminary Review Required to Recommended for Assessment. This is my current status so I believe the latter is the second step.
Hello everyone and congrats to all those who have made it so far!
I've been checking this space but I just had to be a part of it. Thanks to all who share info.
Im waiting it out as well. Being international student,I know I need more patience because it's gonna be quite a wait.
