In the education column there is a question "Is your degree conferred by an institution in US?" What does this mean?
I am an international applicant.

I think it pretty much asks you if you have attended and finished your career in an american institution.

I'm also an international applicant so if I am wrong please someone correct me.

Did you attend college in America or abroad? That's what it means

The TOC essay was really hard but I think in the end it was fun working on it. It took me the longest of all essays for sure.

That's definitely been my experience too. Hard introspection and a very fine balance between content & creativity.

what's your application status showing? I submitted on 3 October, and it shows "submitted". From last year's forum, I came to know the status usually changes from "submitted" to "under review" after a day of submission? I was wondering whether this is still the case this year.

I completed a powerpoint with brief comments each slide from different work and school experiences in the past. I tried to keep the themes in line with the other essays and add some creativity to the presentation but honestly I struggled with this one, probably the least happy I was with any essay I've submitted.

Same submitted status here. I think Johnson invites based on how earlier than the deadline some people submitted their apps.

I can confirm that my status was changed to "under review" more than a week ago. For reference, I submitted my application a little bit over 2 weeks after the application portal opened (mid-August). Obviously have not received anything from the school in terms of an interview invite thus far.
