How long does it take to make a decision.

I applied kind of late all my applications have been completed and sent to the department about a week. I'm just worried it will take a long time before I hear anything.

Good Luck Some of us have been waiting since October.. My first application deadline was Oct 31!!

Thanks . You too . One of my application deadlines is May 1st for fall and at least 45 days before the start of the semester at the other two schools.

If these are masters applications, I'd maybe expect something beginning May'ish and till July. Since Masters students (generally) aren't funded, those are usually more flexible.
