Are there are any admitted candidates who never received any email or phone call but saw their admit status on the portal? Sent from my iPhone using GMAT Club Forum

I submitted my applications on 4th. Havent heard from them yet. Does that mean it is a NO or should i still have hope?

Aah! That is what I was discussing with a fellow applicant about an hour ago. It vexes me (I find it weird actually) that there has been no communication whatsoever from the school.
