Someone in here got waitlisted right? Any update on that? 
I feel so bad for us. Haha this sucks

It does suck and that's why I'm just settling now. It's frustrating because they know it's giving a lot of people anxiety because they've got several emails from several different people in the same position yet have still not given anybody a clear reason why or what it means or when to expect to hear. I think it's unfair to ourselves to keep hanging on to it

I wonder if anyone did a headcount to see how many students attended the cohort meeting LOL. Regardless, looks like the FB group has 20 members in it now. Don't know why the rest of us never received a status update and a few days ago they were saying applications are still under review...

There was 19 of us signed into the meeting, not counting the staff.

Waiting for my rejection email. FB group even reflects 20 members. I am very disappointed with their process. Why bother telling us they were still reviewing applicants if they already had their full cohort. Good luck to everyone else

Part of me wants to email them and address this fact that we're aware the cohorts been filled; but another part of me is worried I'll be negatively impacted in the way I'm viewed (just incase there's hope) since I have already sent 3 follow up emails. Maybe I'm in denial and delusional

Any word when the application opens up for next year? At this point I wish they would rollover the applications still under review to the next cohort if there is no hope for this year

Mine just changed to additional review required. Assuming its a no and they just wanted to actually see all their accepted people before making final decisions.

Mine is still under review.  

 

I wish too they would leave us as the rolling applications for next cohort as well. Wishful thinking

Mine is too. I also had this thought. I'd appreciate that a lot if that was the case
