I was rejected. Disappointed but at least no longer have to be waiting anxiously all day. Big congrats to those who got in!

Oh noooo... Thanks for your sharing! Can we also imply that they received an unexpectedly large number of applications this year?

Hi everyone, another ELOE applicant here. I've been lurking in this thread for a while LOL Since this is the only program I applied for this year, it's literally an "all or nothing" situation to me. I've been super anxious since last week... Here are some thoughts that may be helpful to relieve our anxiety a bit: We are being anxious because we did put a lot of efforts into the application. There are always a percentage of people who make only perfunctory efforts and hope to get lucky (especially GRE is not required this year). They probably don't care about the outcome as much as we do. At least, we've already surpassed them. In addition, most of those who shared their stats on this forum (including this thread and threads of previous years) are applicants who hold a certain degree of confidence in their backgrounds, otherwise they would not be willing to share in public. Therefore, we have a feeling that all applicants are competitive as the applicants who shared their backgrounds are mostly at an above-average level.
