There are a lot of hot takes on whether the next application cycle will be as cut-throat as this cycle. Some say that there will be a bottleneck effect where many more candidates, who were either shut out or decided to wait, will apply in the 2021-2022 application cycle compared to the 2020-2021 application cycle. Others say that if schools that closed admissions and cut down on admission seats this cycle decide to open up next cycle, then 2021-2022 will not be as bad as 2020-2021. I would greatly appreciate any insight, further hot takes, or general musings on this topic. Thanks!

I went to check the portal myself and it says that my application is still under review. Perhaps they are sending out the acceptances in batches?

Is this Miami U. (OH) or U. of Miami (FL)?

@fromthearmchair: if you don't mind my asking, where were you on Maryland's waitlist? Maryland is my top choice and I'm currently sitting on said waitlist. Thanks!
