Sigh...I guess they must be done calling everyone in Asia already. I don't think my ego can take another ding at this point

Congratulations to those who got in and best of luck to those still waiting.

They just started calls 2 hours ago. Last year they were calling for two days. Don't give up hope. :-D

Yes, never give up hope, MichelleK11! The game isn't over. You still stand a good chance of getting in.
There are many people out there who are in the same situation as you are. I know how it feels to be kept waiting, and how stressful the process has been for all of us. You are definitely not alone. Hang in there!!!

Good luck to you (and to all others who are eagerly waiting for the call).

Haha, agreed!

I'm a reapplicant (ding w/o interview last year) so this is so so exciting for me.

For those who haven't received a decision--I'm still pulling for you!

Go Blue!
