JDeane Posted October 25, 2015 Share Posted October 25, 2015 (edited) Hey Everybody,Have any of you been contacting admissions inquiring about decision timeline? Why don't we all flood admissions with email inquiries, maybe that will get process moving.... Haha I emailed them like 10 days ago, but just told me application is still under review.

kayos Posted October 25, 2015 Share Posted October 25, 2015 Haha JDeane that's quite an idea.. I've however contacted them and they also told me the same. They also told me interviews will be in November. I assume therefore that we'll get the verdict by the end of this week. Best wishes to us all.

abohammed Posted October 25, 2015 Share Posted October 25, 2015 I hate waiting I'm trying to be patient. However, I cannot handle that! I feel that my motivation decreases each day! In addition, I cannot concentrate to my classes! JDeane 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JDeane Posted October 25, 2015 Share Posted October 25, 2015 Abohammed,I know what you mean, but don't worry too much about it. There is plenty of universities and we will all be placed at where is best for us insha Allah.However, I would like KAUST to move faster, even if rejection. It is nice to just know and move forward!! abohammed 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Till now, I didn't get any chance for an interview, even that I believe my profile is strong enough to be evaluated..... My friend was rejected two years ago without having any interview. I had another friend who were accepted last year. He didn't hear any news about his interview at that time for a few months. Then, he decided to contact his candidate professor directly. After that his professor helped him regarding his application, such as his professor followed up his application to the admission team. Therefore, I suggest you to contact your candidate professor. I hope this can help you. Edited November 4, 2015 by Ardevara grammatical error Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
