Indecision Letter?
I received a decision letter from FIU stating "The Committee is presently reviewing your application and has decided to hold you application for further review." What does this mean? I suppose it's better than a denial letter, but is anyone familiar with when I will hear back from FIU? I have character & fitness issues that were included in my application and I would assume the further review would be associated with that? Any thoughts or feelings would be helpful, thanks.

Re: Indecision Letter?
It means you're on hold. Not accepted, but not rejected. The size of the hold pile varies by school, but a few people usually get in off the hold list later in the cycle. It doesn't necessarily have anything to do with C&F, although that could be part of it.hunterdragon wrote:I received a decision letter from FIU stating "The Committee is presently reviewing your application and has decided to hold you application for further review."

But realistically, if you're getting held by a barely top 100 school, you probably need to back off and retake. A straight-up rejection would be better for your future chances of success.
