My friend got admitted to the MBA/MCS, but the adcom didn’t mention it at first. When my friend asked if she was admitted, the adcom checked in the system and told her that she was indeed accepted. Chances are that you are accepted, it’s just that the adcom doesn’t have it readily on file.­

Yes it’s different. My MBA Grant says “Reviewed - Not Selected”

It appeared as another line item in that section on the bottom of the page called “Your Scholarship Status”

I submitted round 3 application for HAAS and I completely flunked my video essay. I simply choked both the times (bcz I was less prepared). I wanna know how much of an impact is it going to have on my overall application. I believe I have a decent application apart from the video essay.

Maybe write to admissions n explain your situation? I remember reading here in this group that someone had a chance to resubmit their video essay in R1.. but that was due to the constant ringing of the doorbell or something..
