Hi,

I received this email " The admissions committee has met and shortlisted your application"  What Does It Mean To Shortlist Applicants?

Posted (edited)

Shortlited means either one one of two things:

1. You've made it past the initial cut, but you're not guaranteed a spot yet. You're still competing with other people, but the pool is much smaller (I.E. 2 other candidates, instead of 40). It's a bit of a double-edged sword to know your shortlisted. On the one hand, you're close to getting admitted and you know it. On the other hand, there's still a good chance you'll get beat out and it'll blow up in your face. Don't put too much stock into the program until you're actually offered admission. 

2. To light a candle with a very short wick. This is hard, as there is not much room for the candle to burn.
