It will be interesting to see if there are any other acceptances early next week, or if rejections start appearing instead. I got a call last Friday around 10am from a member of the MIT admissions committee. They informed me of the acceptance and said that they're going to FedEx a formal letter to my mailing address with more details.
Sbrail2 Posted February 15, 2016 Posted February 15, 2016 Does anyone know how American informs acceptances?

I saw several MIT admits on the result page but haven't seen any clarifications yet. It will be really nice if you can, because I don't want to have a false hope anymore haha....Thank you! Also claiming an MIT. Got a call from POI late Friday afternoon EST, and he said it was the first call he'd been able to make; and that he had a number left to do. Sounds like they really trickle out according to Prof's schedules.
twinsora Posted February 15, 2016 Posted February 15, 2016 Just got official e-mail from Irvine from Grad Director, had a call last week. Funding package to come in next few days, same with info on visiting day.
Birdie Posted February 15, 2016 Posted February 15, 2016 Just FYI, but American is closed today because of weather, so don't expect anything from them. Not sure about the other DC-area schools. Every time my phone rings with an unfamiliar DC area phone number or my e-mail dings, my heart starts pounding and my stomach drops. Anyone else? (bah, usually it's some phone scammers or a groupon e-mail.)

Looking forward to the funding info.
elw Posted February 15, 2016 Posted February 15, 2016 My better conscience got the better of me and I declined the Michigan State offer in the hopes that it will assist another. Straussian Dogmatist, ezra123 and worryandhope 3
Erpeno Posted February 15, 2016 Posted February 15, 2016 Does anyone know if phone calls to international applicants are common? I've got a five hour time difference from my remaining schools. And mentally I'm taking MIT out of that category, because even if they haven't contacted to say no that they haven't contacted me kinda says it for them. Congratulations to those who have had acceptances. Roll on Yale.
Hopeful57 Posted February 15, 2016 Posted February 15, 2016 Did anyone who had a Vandy interview get a timeline for decisions?

wpg205 Posted February 15, 2016 Posted February 15, 2016 I'm guessing Yale is coming out soon. My application had all the materials in on time, but wasn't formally marked as "Completed" until last night at 2 AM. Could really use some good news...

And it took 25 days for the status to change from "submit" to "complete." So I won't read too much from your status change on the online portal -- but yes, Yale will be out soon. If not this week, definitely no later than next week.
PizzaCat93 Posted February 15, 2016 Posted February 15, 2016 I don't know about anyone else, but I'm very ready for this application season to be over. So tired of waiting!! Straussian Dogmatist, ezra123, brent09 and 4 others 7

Mine was a bit weird but switched last year. They got my GRE score sent before the deadline but only marked it as received (and then complete) afterwards. Really hope that isn't enough to have sent the application to the bin.

Pretty sure that the faculty don't review the applications until January or later. It just takes time for the staff to match your score with your file and then update it in the system. Don't overthink. And also, at this juncture, hopefully everyone has one or two offers in hand that she will be happy to end up with. If I get into Harvard or Yale -- great. If not -- I'm still really happy with what I get and can't wait to start a new chapter of my life in grad school. Good luck on your Yale application!
IRtheorist Posted February 15, 2016 Posted February 15, 2016 Just received a rejection from Korbel School in Denver via email. It was my best fit. This all just keeps getting worse.
