I've thought that for a long time.

Oh, but it is!

Well I guess we are all in the same boat...I received too the email confirming the deferred decision so go for my option 1 as well!

So let's keep hopes alive, we never know until the end (or a ding email)!

By the way any French people among the R2 ding day survivors?

I'm French but did not survive... Good luck to you.

I am a deferred R1 applicant and have not yet got any news from MIT.

Has someone heard of anything? It's been almost 6 months of waiting...

Nothing here. Someone on BW said they called and were told that most decisions would go out this week. Something tells me that given the quantity and quality of applicants to MIT this year, deferred effectively means "respectfully dinged." It was a good run . . .

mmmm so it seems that interview invites are pretty much over... So deferred candidates without interview should be expecting to be dinged? I didn't hear about invites in Asia or Latam...
