That's so interesting! I applied for Mizzou and have heard nothing from them since my application submission was confirmed. That's such a vague way to communicate a decision (or lack thereof), I really can't tell if that indicates waitlist or rejection. You'd think they would specify a bit more. Wishing you the best of luck!

I'm a first gen student feeling very confused in this whole process, and I'm TERRIFIED of not getting in anywhere knowing how competitive programs are.
