Hi folks. I have applied to ASU in Feb 2nd round.
Got a mail saying that it might take 3 - 4 weeks for application to be processed and get a feedback.
So basically i want to know by when i can expect the admit result/ding.
I have to make this decision quickly as i also got accepted in ISB and have only 6 - 8 weeks till the joining date.
PS: Is it advisable to write to the admissions committee and pester them..??
First, I would make absolute sure you have sent them all parts of the application, including all official transcripts from every institution you have recieved credits from. Second, you should, if you have not already, recieve a call or email from an admissions officer to help with the application process. ASU stresses "business is personal", so this would be the person you can relate your other deadlines to. I do know that the admissions committee meets every 2 weeks, so if they meet in 2 weeks, you get an interview, do it immediately, then when they meet 2 weeks later they could potentially give you an answer. When I was in my interview they specifically asked if I had any other deadlines and if they needed to give me an answer sooner than what was expected. So, I do think it's possible, but I would also get a specific date from ISB. 6-8 weeks leaves too much wiggle room. Hope this helps.
