MariElizabeth Posted January 31, 2014 Posted January 31, 2014 As of this morning the application status has been changed to Decision Made for University of Minnesota. Does this necessarily mean an early rejection, or potential waitlist? And yes, It seems i do have to neurotically postulate this matter for the 24hours before I know for sure. Any Ideas on what the timing of decisions means for acceptance? Academicat 1
ArthChauc Posted January 31, 2014 Posted January 31, 2014 I'm not sure about the system they use, but for a lot of systems the "Decision Made" words are actually a link you can click. Is that not the case? Also, if it's not...holy hell, you are a saint for dealing with that stress. I would've immediately called the department. Good luck!
MariElizabeth Posted January 31, 2014 Author Posted January 31, 2014 It says that we will be notified within one business day after the status has been updated to "decision made."
semicolon2013 Posted January 31, 2014 Posted January 31, 2014 I would assume that's good news for you--my status at Minnesota has not changed, and I believe they notify acceptances on Feb. 1.
TakeruK Posted January 31, 2014 Posted January 31, 2014 It says that we will be notified within one business day after the status has been updated to "decision made." Yikes, if that's true, why would they even change your status for just 1 day! That is just torture, like your title said!
MariElizabeth Posted January 31, 2014 Author Posted January 31, 2014 First rejection! Semicolon2013, i hope you hear soon! Though, of course, not too soon like myself
semicolon2013 Posted January 31, 2014 Posted January 31, 2014 I'm sorry MariElizabeth. I'm just going crazy now because it looks like Minnesota and Berkeley are already notifying. This whole thing sucks.
MariElizabeth Posted January 31, 2014 Author Posted January 31, 2014 Hey, I'll bet you're about to receive some good news from Minnesota! So cheers to that!
Jocko Posted February 1, 2014 Posted February 1, 2014 I'm sorry MariElizabeth. But it looks like there was an acceptance as well? I'm still waiting. Probably all weekend....
StardewDropIn Posted February 1, 2014 Posted February 1, 2014 Yeah someone heard from Berkeley and now I'm panicking... feeling like if they don't tell me soon it's because I'm being rejected... ahhh. Has anyone else who applied to Berkeley found out yet??
Jocko Posted February 1, 2014 Posted February 1, 2014 I thought I already posted this, so if it is a repeat, sorry. Semicolon: How did you know about Feb 1 @ MN? I am also wondering if the acceptance I saw on the survey-listed as Minnesota, no university--was a mistake because in "comments" it read: "email to check website," which seems like an odd method of accepting-- at least for MN, as they have always previously called or emailed ( according to the survey). I am still at "Awaiting program decision" Let me know your status.
formofmyform Posted February 1, 2014 Posted February 1, 2014 In the program application, it asks for a phone number that they can contact us with "around February 1st." My status is "awaiting program decision," too.
bakalamba Posted February 5, 2014 Posted February 5, 2014 I have the same notification from Minnesota, "Decision Made", although I'm applying to a different Department. It's been there since yesterday. Torture.
hashslinger Posted February 5, 2014 Posted February 5, 2014 I can't believe UMN is still doing this. They did it four years ago when I applied. So vague and unprofessional!
Jocko Posted February 6, 2014 Posted February 6, 2014 For rbamattre, Did your application go to "final review" before the decision made page
