Dont fret. My decision came almost a week later than when they initially told me to expect it by. Good luck.

Just remind everyone who get their admission already. The college will need an official copy of your academic credentials. Since Covid pandemic, they prefer an electronic version and this is faster way to provide. I submitted my hard copy and they took over one month to confirm.

I put in a request with my previous uni to send my transcripts to Gies. They do not do electronic copies, which sucks tbh because the hard copy will take months to process due to delays related to the pandemic.

How are your classes coming along?

Great, so we will be in the same Statistics class.

I am ideally aiming to complete in 2 years, but let's see.

First session starts only in January, I would go for it now since there is still time.

Hi all, congrats to those who get accepted.

I just got interviewed last week. Im still wondering about some aspects of the learning platform. I am aware that the course will be divided into 2 sections; Coursera and Compass. Coursera will be 8 weeks long and I am just wondering:
1. Will the Compass part go along simultaneously with the Coursera part or do we need to finish the Coursera portion first to start the Compass part?
2. How long one quarter going to be? Because I see on the application for the Spring 2021 cohort we can choose two starting date which are January and March.

Thanks and good luck!

Let me answer this question for you.
1. Compass assignments are separately from Coursera. However, I recommend you finish Coursera first since I usually have to refer to the class content from Coursera to do something like Graded discussion post in compass.
2. Spring and Fall semester each is 4 weeks + 4 weeks (Two sections). One registered course is 4 weeks long. Only Summer semester is only 4 weeks section. So Spring 2021 cohort you can choose two starting date is simply because there are two sections for you to register class.

Somewhat late, but I'll add my info. I applied for the Jan 2021 PAT start.

Applied: 9/5
Invited to interview: 9/8
Interviewed: 9/16
Unofficial notice of acceptance: 9/25 (I was told during my interview to expect a longer than usual wait for a decision since they were up against the deadline to notify the last admits for the Oct 2020 cohort. Apparently usually decision are made by the end of the same week.)
Official notice of admission: 9/29
