for those ppl who got rejected, did your track change too?


Track doesn't update NORMALLY until mid feb. or march...

there are though some strange cases where people have had their tracks updated
My track hasn't updated and my original college was on my SAQ 3 days ago, if that helps. But you shouldn't give credence to it, we have no idea what's going on in the admission tutors minds....:awesome:

I also got my final rejection letter today (my saq changed to my original college a few days ago) :frown: , but i feel pretty indifferent, cambridge put me through the depression, denial and loss/gain of hope stages, and now its ended, thankfully. Good luck to everyone still waiting though :smile:

Commiserations to all who received their rejection letter today. That's piiineapple, Goggle, turgon, Lightyear and Rhoadissimus. Good luck!
i'm dreading what i'm gonna discover when i get home now...
I read somewhere on the decisions forum that someone had his college changed on the SAQ, so he called the new college up and they gave him an offer over the phone, saying that decisions were already made on Sunday. I really want to know what's up with my college change as well (still don't want to get my hopes up), but I don't want to seem as too nosy. Should I call?

Also, commiserations to those who were unsuccessful :frown: You must have all been v strong applicants to have been pooled and gotten this far!
hmmm i wanna call as well but i think it would seem a bit impatient...

thing is, i didn't get a letter that told me my result (pooled) so i had to ring to find that out. i think it would seem a bit desperate to ring again now to find out the result.

the wait goes on...
called home to check if there was mail!
noone home :frown:


its kind of funny that all this week I've been wanting a letter and today it's like I hope there is no letter
:h:
I drowned in the pool today too.
Mail through the post.


I was desperate to get this letter a few days back to put an end to this but now that I have got it in my hand, it does feel kind of... hollow... disappointing, still. Haha.

Someone told me that he/she heard of his/her rejection (after pooled) over the phone as well. >.< They told him/her that decisions were already made on Sunday. I'm very tempted to e-mail them. I'd prefer some closure. :biggrin: besides, i'm intl. Letters will take FOREVER. I just got my pooled letter in the mail today -.-.

However, as nirvathema said, I don't want to seem nosy either. O.o Especially if they have in fact, not made a decision and is still considering. "This girl is too nosy, let's drop her and pick this other girl instead! Muahahaha" - probably a bit over the top but gah.

To e-mail/phone or not to e-mail/phone, that is the question! What do you think?
NesQuiK.
Do you know that for certain?
With all the pool stuff going on how would they have time to follow this thread, and why would they even want to?
:s-smilie:


Yep.

Yeah, I didn't want to come across too pushy. =/ Did your college change on the SAQ too?

yep it has. it's so annoying, a few days ago that was a good sign, now it just seems as though a rejection is on the way
Ok now I'm scared to go anywhere near the mail box... a complete u-turn to my behaviour last saturday when I practically threw my self at the postman!
Would be nice to get some closure though.

Commiserations to those who got their rejection letters today and good luck to those who are still swimming!

Don't say that D:

Actually, if you call your new college instead of your original one, you won't seem that pushy as it's the first you've called them. I was thinking of just asking what the SAQ change means and trying not to come across as "Let me know the decision now now now!!"
