Round 2 Admission Decisions: Estimated Timelines and Chat Rooms

Question

We are heading towards Round 2 decisions. Waiting for the decision is often painful so to help alleviate your anxiety a bit, we present here estimated decision timelines of top schools. Note that these timelines are purely based on the trends observed in the last few years(based on the decision tracker). We are not claiming that schools will follow the same pattern/decision schedule.

Chat Rooms: We have also assigned chat rooms for every school so that applicants can stay in touch and exchange information/updates during the decision times. All chat rooms are equipped with a decision tracker so that decision updates can be seen in the chat room itself.

How do you know if you haven’t received any scholarships? Will there be like a letter saying that you haven’t? Or do we just assume from a lack of a scholarship letter?

Nikhil · Answer

arco17

In most cases it will be the lack of a scholarship letter but which school are you talking about?
