I agree.... do we know when the app for next year opens yet?

I'm assuming January just like this year.

I believe it opens up in August for the next cohort. I accidently put I that wanted to be apart of the 2026 cohort on my supplemental application and they emailed me back to clarify which cohort I meant to apply for. They said if I wanted to apply for 2026, applications open this August!

They emailed me the same at the beginning.

Unfortunately, these are probably denials. Additional review required has meant either acceptance or denial in the past. Considering somebody said there was already a cohort meeting, I'm assuming these are denials going out now that they've met their cohort. Hoping maybe they got some more spots and there will be some acceptances but pretty sure this is just them sending final denials to the rest of us waiting
