telegram. dear meowmers STOP we regret to inform you STOP... STOP sending that letter of STOP continued interested STOP calling us STOP sending us cat gifs via e-mail STOP
No, but seriously?
email + SC will change to 'decision rendered'
So don't have to wait for snail mail, it'll be quick and painless - well painful. Thanks :)
Does anyone know if you're accepted does it also say 'decision rendered' just with a happy phone call instead of a depressing email?

Mine never changed to decision rendered, but the current status updated to admitted after the call -- probably by the next day.

I've started a job after sending in my application that's somewhat impressive on paper (wont go into details for privacy's sake, but I'm essentially directing the NYC region of a small start-up company). Do you think it's worth sending in an updated resume? Especially since I haven't heard since going complete beginning of December? Or do you think it'll make such a small difference in my application that it's not worth bothering the admissions committee?

I don't think it could hurt, so I personally would probably send it.

So sad...................................
Don't give up until you're holding the ding letter in your hands (or I guess, holding your phone which has the ding email in your hands, as it were, don't think they do physical letters). I just got a JS1 after ~3.5 months so I don't think it's beyond the realm of possibility that you'd get one this week or next!

I'm a few weeks away from my 6 month anniversary of radio silence from HLS. I hope they get me card at least, if they're not going to give me a letter

This was the absolute best start to my day. +180
It's true. NYU has passed the half-year mark, but at least they reminded me they still cared. Harvard....

6 months damn...I'm nearing 4 months myself. I guess we shouldn't have written our PS's in crayon, huh?
