Application Status

[BrandNewName]

Do Embark applications have an area where you can see the status of your application?

For example, all of the applications I completed through ApplyYourself say "Completed" and the date that my file was marked as complete by the given admissions office. I assume that "Completed" will change to "Accepted" or "Rejected" at some point, can anyone confirm that?

For one school (Columbia), there is an Application Status PDF in the Downloadable Forms tab that says my application is currently at the department. No other schools seem to have that available though...

And what about Embark applications-- is there any place where I might be able to see "Under Review" or "Rejected"?

I'm not expecting much news for another week or two, but I've seen that a lot of people discover their fate through the application itself before an email, letter, or phone call arrives. Can anyone offer some clarification, help an anxious applicant?

I have one Embark application and I searched through it looking for someplace to see status updates. I have not found anything...

If all Embark apps are structured the same way (which I believe they are), then you can't see your app status online.

I had one Embark application too and there wasn't a place there to check the status. The school had a separate site for that.

I also have one Embark app. I didn't find anywhere that had status updates, I had to contact the graduate secretary.

The only way to check your app status at the one school to which I applied that used Embark was to call the Office of Admissions. A bit less convenient, perhaps, but also a bit more trustworthy hearing it from an actual person than reading it online.
