Congrats Persis. You've had a very successful season

Posted from my mobile device

Thanks man! I think it has a lot to do with applying conservatively and networking extensively. I had a lower GMAT when I applied and wanted a full scholarship..thus the choice of schools. I updated schools with my higher scores after my round 2 applications. Add declining applications to that and we sort of have a recipe for success. :)
Great. So have you decided on where you are going to go? Or are you waiting for foster scholarship info?

Waiting for the scholarship deets. There's no way I'm paying big money in these times. Have you decided yet?

I haven't. I'm not sure I'll even get a chance to come to the US this year with the covid and visa situation.

Don't say that just yet. There's 4 months until school starts. Besides, schools will probably offer some relaxation. International students might be allowed to attend classes online until their Visas are processed. You have to look at the numbers. Say 30 top US schools x 300 incoming students x 20% international. Close to 2000 students. And these are extremely conservative. So don't sweat it right now. Chin up my friend!

Ugh..I'm so sorry. Let me know in case you want to hop on a call if you're thinking of reapplying next year. I'll be happy to help in any way I can.

Thanks. I don't know what went wrong and unfortunately this was the only college I applied to. Today sucks.

Hi, yes my first letter stating acceptance mentioned a merit scholarship. I received the scholarship letter 2 hours after that.
