We need to get a cheering group together for Gravity. Said group should tell the adcoms that if ever there was a Trojan that could fight, it would be Gravity. xD

Has anyone skipped a committee, and been accepted? Or is this sign of an auto-ding.

Went complete on 1/8.
1st committee read on 3/12
DF 3/19.

The anticipation is killing me, please share!

In early March I was still sitting complete. I emailed the admissions office and found out my file was missing a residency form. 3 days later I was admitted (without it showing committee review). Hope this helps.

you didn't "skip a committee". sometimes they just decide based on your first review. that could mean they chose to reject or admit you already. AFAIK, anyway.

Hmm.. I don't think I filled one out... I'm just wondering why they would do that if they are a private institution? #OhWell

I don't think the board as come to a consensus on it yet, but I would suggest going to the tour and maybe asking for your decision is in person. They never said they wouldn't release it in person. :wink:

Does it seem like the scholarship offers are coming from Rothman rejections or have some people received offers out of the blue?

Decision finalized today...no email though. Shall I brace for a reject? Or can I hope for a spot on the wait list?

They do not release decisions via email/phone.

Nammertat- how did you know to e-mail them if it said it was complete? Was there anything besides lack of movement that made you e-mail them?
