Complete 9/4 and changed to "under review". Does anybody has any idea how long it usually takes to get an II/ rejection from this status?
Not sure what the norm is, but I’ve been under review for almost two months

I'm pretty sure "complete and under review" likely doesn't mean much.

Congrats!! Do you remember how long you were put under review for?

Thank you! Nope, sorry :/. I never logged in after submitting my secondary app. I didn't think they were going to look at it so soon. Are you under review?

Yeah I am! but I am not so sure since when ( may be its been that way since day 1, im not sure haha). Did you apply only MD?

As a fellow 7/26, this whole thing is so bizarre..... If it weren't so frowned upon I'd call and ask what's going on.

So G-town doesn't review in order of completion date then?
 
Go on with your quest my fellow 7/26er

I did check the website and turn-around time is 8-10 weeks... Guess we've got two more weeks before we really need to assume we've been forgotten :boom:

I've hit peak neurotic... Just called and asked. Applications are reviewed in order of complete date, she said on the phone there were just a lot from the 7/26 date so they are still going through them. Get ready y'all, the bubble is about to burst real soon.

Meaning they skipped some of the 07/26 folks and moved on to the next dates?
 
unsure, I was expecting the R until they passed right over my date. Going off of what sxr9912 said I'm assuming they'll come back to me soon..?

Do you think that is good or bad news?
I think they go chronologically and send II immediately for those they want to interview and then go on to send out Rs slowly for those that weren’t given an II... so if people who were complete WAY after you have gotten interviews , then that would unfortunately mean you probably have gotten axed :(

damn, I thought it might mean they were undecided since people on my completion date had received R's too and so there was still an II possibility
 
So to keep me from incessantly thinking about Georgetown... it was one of my later secondaries I submitted because I put a lot of heart/research/thought into the 1 page "why Georgetown" prompt. Whether that pays off has yet to be told. The anxiety in me is killing me, but anyone who has any opinions, when should I start getting worried about them reviewing 8/20-8/24 complete people? Thanks!

Complete 08/20 - complete silence .... I only heard back from 6 schools and they were ALL R's (pre-secondaries 3, post secondaries 3 within 2 weeks of submission - too fast but honestly appreciated!!) ,,, I've been complete mid-late August for all schools and haven't heard back yet,, it's been over 7 weeks for most schools and still no rejections nor II ... not sure if I should worry or be happy, waiting for ~ 30 schools!

I'm in the same situation! Been complete for two months and haven't heard from any of the 27 schools I applied to
 
R just now -- LizzyM 78, complete on 7/26. Honestly a bit surprised because I spent a ton of time on the secondary but it's nice that they let you know.

2 questions:
1. Does anyone know if Georgetown is receptive to ITA emails?
2. What days does Georgetown have interviews?

1. According to FAQ, no unless you've been offered an II already.
2. Doesn't matter I guess lol
