I am currently on the waitlist yes. I was told that I was so since mid-february, waiting ever since. I find the fact that you weren't told whether you're on the waitlist or not odd; however, I would reason that you would be on it. Otherwise you would have been notified of a rejection no? What does your applicant portal say? Mine still says "under review".


That is very interesting, at least now we know the length of the waitlist. The natural next question is how many places are left. If it's a mere 1-2, then I'd say it's a bit disingenuous to keep so many of us hopeful. Since we've seen two users here who seemingly got an offer very recently, I'm also wondering whether we're just waiting for a mass rejection. That's at least what Oxford did for this year. Nevertheless I wish everyone good luck in the next couple days. <3

The fact that I dont think I've seen any flat out rejections (just waiting list replies) worries me a bit. Ive only seen 1 or 2 offers though so I'm still hoping lol. I feel rejections should be given out quickly. It seems more humane haha. If you're gonna make people wait months, just to reject them, it seems a bit sadistic.

Note the bias in our sample though, people who are currently waitlisted are more likely to comment on this thread than those rejected, who can actually move on. I've also seen a couple rejections in other threads I believe. As cruel as the situation may be, I recommend just putting your head down with work at this point since we have no control over our status. Having waited 3-4 months for a reply, I think we can handle waiting for another week or two.

I need to accept my Cornell offer TODAY! So was really hoping to hear something back now. But I guess all we can do is wait! I’m positive we’ll have something latest by next week

I'm still waiting for answer and its stressful, but it would be so much more with an exploding offer. Did you take Cornell in the end?

Hey,
Has anyone recently emailed admission about the possible results date? How likely is it that we get it this week?

At this rate we will have to wait until July 🙃

is there any group for offer holders for acs or postgrad in general?

Moved to pao recently
