Hey everyone. I called yesterday and it sounds like I'm in but wasn't able to get a direct answer. Maybe they aret allowed to give a direct "yes" or "no" over the phone. Did anyone else get the same type of response?

I got into the program in April. When I called to check if I was in, before I got my letter, she said that she couldn't say anything official but welcome to Augusta. So, yes, it was vague.

Hmm ok when I called to ask if I got into Augusta (because I felt Athens was out of the question) I was told "don't pack." I applied to both Athens and Augusta and I'm from Athens so I'm hoping she meant I was in here. Could mean I didn't get in at all but she sounded like she was saying as much as she could to let me know I was in. Glad I'm not the only one.

Good luck!

[sharzaejones]

She can't officially tell you. If you're accepted the envelope is big and you can see the congratulations message through the window on the envelope.

[Ecearley]

haha ok I will hope I get a big envelope soon. I almost wish I had not called...its making the wait that much harder

[sharzaejones]

Has your status changed to "decision made; notification by mail"?

[Ecearley]

Nope...."ready for review" I hate that phrase

[sharzaejones]

I had checked my status early one morning, then I checked it later that day and it had changed to decision made. The letter was sent the same day my status changed.
