Right so the update email on friday was a non-event. I wish they stopped wordsmithing - "...we are unfortunately unable to guarantee providing you a definitive answer...", "However, we sometimes are able to make admission deciions before the end of Round 2" - In other words if we make a decision about your candidacy in the interim period then you will be told otherwise sit tight till the 30th! Why not just say that you should wait till the 30th and why even have these update emails? So far they have not told us anything we did not already know!
Sorry for the rant but this is a really frustrating way of managing a process...
I hear you!!
But in January's email update they said that "Over the next three to four weeks, we will actively review our waitlisted candidates. Starting in February, we will begin to make decisions whether to admit, retain or let applicants go from our waitlist. You may or may not receive an update to your status quite that early, but will definitely hear from us no later than March 30, 2012."
From this it seemed that they will accept a few waitlisted candidates in February. But from the email which they sent on Friday it seems that we will not get any update before March 30. Its kind of disappointing.
