sorry about that... in a couple of weeks. Essentially equivalent to whats written on the website as "late february"

It probably wont hurt. But I'm sure they'll just say something like "we'll send notifications to everyone by so and so date", etc. how do i know? because I tried it yesterday 8)

I have one small question. I noticed everyone posting here have joined the forum in the past couple of days or so. Did you all get here just by googling for stuff like mit+ admissions +acceptance +results, etc. etc.? Just curious.

obviously, its not true that we dont have a chance. Atleast, not with so many hours of today still left Good luck to everyone, and congrats to joshvegan!

Well said, e^jw. I agree with most of what you said. And I really would like to believe that at least one of us would have made it through if a bulk of the acceptances were sent out. One point though, is that the percentage of people who use this site among those accepted may not be too high. So, if we see 2 or 3 posted/projected on this website, the true estimate could be more like 20 or 30. And we shouldnt discount the possibility that the 2 or 3 posted there could be trolls in the first place :twisted: I wish I could bloody ignore all this and just be coooooool like wateva :roll:

yeah, i guess so, unless they work on weekends :evil:

Thats sounds possible. But note that the MIT open housefor EE(not CS) is on Mar 2nd. And the admitted students are supposed to RSVP whether they are going to attend latest before Wed, Feb 21st! So, assuming that they will want to give at least give a couple of days notice, it sounds very likely that the admittees will/have been notified in some way by the end of this week :oops: Look at http://www.eecs.mit.edu/admittees/

Not quite :? Since no one has had a rejection yet, all we know for now is that some people were accepted and unfortunately this means, we can't rule out the possibility of ourselves being in the rejection pile.

That is, unless of course, you know of anyone who has already been rejected too

I don't see how it could be a good thing, but lets wait and watch. The open house for admitted students is frm Mar 2-3rd. To make travel arrangements possible, they should have some kind of a final list up by this week at the latest. Certainly not a good thing to not hear from them. Good luck

I'm waiting to hear from MIT EECS too. From the posts on the results section, it looks like there were a few accepted decisions released yesterday!
