Alexyc Posted February 27, 2019 Posted February 27, 2019 Hi guys, I heard that GT sent out admissions on Feb.22 and Feb.26. Congradulations to those who have been admitted to this competitive program!!! I am wondering if the four tracks (IC/ID/PSY/LMC) send out admissions independently? If so, which track did you receive your admission from? Thanks & Congrats!!!

I too started accepting that not hearing any news means I've been rejected but you never know. It's not over until it's over.
Lavs Posted February 28, 2019 Posted February 28, 2019 Hi guys! I applied to the Industrial Design Track. My application status still says ' Submitted', so I'm really worried.

GudduFML Posted March 1, 2019 Posted March 1, 2019 I messed up big time, i didn't realize that the web-hosting of my portfolio website got expired 2 weeks back and as a result my content was deleted. I updated it again few days back but i think it's too late, they have already reviewed my application now it seems. Just waiting for a reject

Besides, portfolio may not be THAT important in reviewing an application: I know some people who got admitted to GT didn't submit portfolio, the committee looks at the whole package after all!

Expand That would have been the case if i applied to IC or Psych track, but it was explicitly mentioned on their portal that for ID and LMC, portfolio plays a vital/decisive role ?

Expand I agree with @Lavs that you still get the chance to "argue" -- maybe send them an e-mail explaining your situation.
