Yesss, I think they sent it out to everyone. Fingers crossed and good luck everyone!!!

Does anyone know whether in the past, has anyone gotten results without having received a call?

I'm in Asia and it's past midnight here now, and 7pm Central Time (UTC-6) is about 8am where I am. I'm super nervous and wonder whether I should anticipate a call or take it as a sign that I may not be accepted.

Wonder how common it is for them not call first before admissions decisions go out. Getting worried this means waitlisted or denied ?

same here

Got waitlisted in Dec. Hopefully an update will show up after another 1.5 months of wiating lol

Did they call to tell you that? Or did you see that as a portal update?

From another post, it seems they don't call all admitted students. We will know by 7pm

What's the logic behind the calls though? Does it mean anything- better aid or something else? And especially, does it happen a lot for international students?

I checked the 2021 forum and I was not able to confirm anything. Some American students got calls, others didn't. Same for the given aid.

for the waitlist decision I did not get a call -- won't be reasonable for them to do that anyways

I hope results come out soon (much before 7 pm). This is too much waiting with anticipation now!!!

Just got the call from a 708 number and Sparkle told me I was admitted. They bumped my scholarship from a 10k scholarship I got last year in Round 2 to 30k now in Round 1. Incredibly relieved.

They are currently running through another batch of admissions decisions so don't feel discouraged if you haven't heard back.

Saw the email and got a call today (from a 779 number) w/ an acceptance message and funding info (10k initial offer). I am sure they are making the rounds on calling folks so I would make sure to answer your phone if you can today if you see an IL number. Wishing everyone the best outcome on admission and funding!

For everyone getting calls and otherwise- is the application portal updated yet for anyone?

No, the person on the phone said the portal will be updated for all at the same time and I just double checked and no portal update so it seems they are for sure sticking to a set 7pm CST deadline. 

[Ľlllllllllllkll]

Have they released the results yet? I don't see a change on my portal so wondering if that's just for us being waitlisted through the prior round.

[mppth]

Yes they have updated the portal now
Good luck!

[charlie989]

Good luck all!

Hey, I just got an email acceptance from Harris for MSCAPP!!

i did not see any mention of an award tho, is that something that will come later? Or where will I see it?

edit: woops just saw it! 10k award, it’s not as much as I was hoping for. Hopefully will get more on appeal!

In for MPP. Feeling great!

First, I received a call and, then, an update in the application status page. Congratulations to all who got through. ???

Others who are anxiously waiting, best wishes to you all. Please remember, good things take time. Maybe, the good news is on the way! ?

[bryan888]

Congrats to all! I was thankfully accepted into MSCAPP. It has been a long wait for the results. Wishing everyone who are still awaiting their results the best of luck! ?

[agv1992mx]

Got in!!! Did not receive any phone call, just the email indicating the update in the portal. 

[charlie989]

Good luck to everyone who hasn't heard anything back yet!! 

I didn't get an email or a phone call but I checked the application portal and saw my acceptance!! All I got was a letter for merit aid, do you guys know who we can talk to about other scholarships?
