Can't be a bad sign! Have you sent them any personal updates and/or recommendation letters? Good luck!

Did send them an update recently. I guess tomorrow is drop dead date? Any news about waitlists an any other forums?

FWIW - Drop dead date came and went and I never did hear anything back from the school. Guess that's it then. Best of luck to all still hanging in there...your odds are getting better!

So if the drop dead date is past and you still havent heard, then it is over? Or will they at least intimate you?

Yep - sounds like it. I just called the admissions office and they said that basically once your drop dead date passes, you are just removed from the list of eligible candidates but they don't send out any other notification. And sorry, I didn't ask anything else about the wait list (numbers remaining, whether any were admitted, etc).

Sorry to be the bearer of bad news but thought you guys would at least appreciate the info. Just got an email from admissions saying that the 2014 class is oversubscribed and they're offering deferrals to the first 20 admitted students who ask for one

Hmm... Interdasting... Are you considering the offer? On a serious note, who else out there is still an active member of the waiting list and holding out until 9/1?

I heard that they are actually offering "scholarships" to admitted students who take the deferral. Can anyone else confirm this or provide a range of the offer? I was considering it but not sure if it'd be worth it!

Interesting. I saw that they offered $8K for MFin students who took the deferral last year: https://www.quantnet.com/threads/oversu ... efer.6320/ Of course, that's a different year and a different program.
