guest789 Posted January 27, 2021 Posted January 27, 2021 I think most schools that are GRE optional will be delayed for a week or two (see Northwestern as an example), so I don't think now is the time to stress. At least this means they must be considering all of our applications which is nice - I was kind of thinking they might throw out applications of people who didn't take the GRE. But a delay indicates otherwise.
gradappsubmitter Posted January 27, 2021 Posted January 27, 2021 Does anyone know when Ohio State or Penn State will be releasing more info on admissions acceptances/rejections? Or a time frame?

But a delay indicates otherwise. I think most of the GRE-optional schools I applied to had mentioned they wouldn't even consider GRE scores, if submitted, as part of the main review process, but rather only later on as supplemental materials to view an application in a more holistic way. It also wouldn't make any sense to throw out non-GRE applications since I assume most applicants would not submit them because a below average score "might" be seen as a negative.

iamlia Posted January 27, 2021 Posted January 27, 2021 Hey everyone! I'm getting increasingly anxious as well and seeing we're all in the same boat is a real relief. Hang in there, we'll know soon!! I wanted to ask if anyone knows whether schools usually check our LinkedIn profiles. I'm just seeing that someone from one of the schools I applied to has checked my LinkedIn profile and I don't know if that is common or if it's just a coincidence (my privacy settings don't let me see who it was, so maybe it was just a student and it was a plain coincidence). Not that it's really important but I jumped when I saw it on my LinkedIn notifications. Has anyone else had this experience?

I would assume that unless it's included on your resume/CV, they wouldn't check it. I did have a few people who viewed my LinkedIn profile on private mode at the beginning of the month, but i can't know if it was schools or just regular activity. I did include my LinkedIn on my CV though. iamlia 1
